Fire Alarms Caerphilly

An aspirating smoke detector is a smoke detection system that comprises a central detection unit with sampling chambers. These chambers correspond with a network of pipes that draw in the air throughout a building at selected points. This can be air drawn in from multiple points across a single space or across a whole building.

The air is constantly being tested in the detection unit, where laser technology is used to measure light scattering particles. This allows the system to detect whether smoke particles are present in the air, with different levels of sensitivity programmed to suit the environment. If smoke is detected, the alarm is raised as the system can be integrated with fire control panels.

Aspirating smoke detectors offer comprehensive smoke detection coverage and are well-suited for environments where traditional smoke alarms may not provide adequate protection. These systems are often used in commercial and industrial settings, but can also be used in residential properties.
