Mary, I am more confused that you are. It was supposed to be two questions, one for I-Melder, and this one, and I managed to mispost the I-Melder question as a duplicate of this. Hopefully I have it right now, and thank you very much for your help.

BMA I was pretty sure it was some sort of fire alarm, but I had to see this from Mary before it occured to me it is Brand Meldung Anlage. Or is it?

BMA - is Brandmeldeanlagen, as far as I can work out, so this one is just specifying that these things are for use in fires...

Yes, your guess is pretty much on track - and now I\'ve gone and hidden my first answer because it was supposed to be an answer to the other question - hadn\'t even got as far as the BMA then. Hope you\'re not as confused as I am (-:
