Air Sampling Smoke Detection |
|
|
Air-sampling smoke detection technology, like that offered by VESDA, offers the earliest possible warning of a potential fire. It helps to ensure business continuity and freedom from nuisance alarms. Vanguard professionals can design an air-sampling detection system that will meet your unique needs.
Air-sampling Smoke Detectors work by:
- Continually drawing air into a pipe network attached to a detector unit.
- Passing the air through a dual stage filter to remove dirt
- Sending the clean air to a laser detection chamber for smoke detection.
- Measuring the light scatter caused by any smoke
- Processing the detector signal and presenting the smoke level graphically
- Communicating the information to a fire alarm control panel, a software management system or a building management system.
Air-sampling smoke detectors provide the early warning of an imminent fire hazard. Why is this important? It buys time. Time to investigate a smoke alarm. Time to take action. Time to avoid the danger, damage and disruption caused by fire. |
