The System Sensor SS-FIRE-CO is an intelligent, multi-criteria detector incorporating photoelectric, thermal, infrared and Carbon Monoxide (CO) detection principles that provide both fire and CO detection. For fire, sophisticated algorithms maximize the advantages of all four sensor types creating our best detection strategy offering heightened immunity to nuisance particulate and enhanced sensitivity to real fire.
Multiple sensors and communication can greatly reduce nuisance alarms compared to single sensing methods.
• Photoelectric sensors are designed to detect particulate in the air associated with smoke.
• The thermal sensors detect heat including its rate-of-rise with a 135°F fixed temperature threshold.
• Carbon Monoxide is a by-product of fire and offers a valuable element for accurate fire detection.
• The Infrared sensor discerns light patterns in the environment as an additional data point for alarm determination.
This ability to reject certain nuisance alarm triggers, such as theater smoke, supports the use of the fire/CO detector in applications where moderate to heavy nuisance conditions exist that might cause single sensing detectors to false alarm.
The fire/CO detector meets both UL 268 7th edition and UL 521 listing requirements for fire detection as well as the UL 2075 standard
