Increasing The Suction Power In An Aspirating Smoke Detector (ASD) To Shorten The Transport Time From A Detected Minimum Signal Level Value Without The Output Of An Interruption Signal
The present disclosure relates to aspirating smoke detectors (ASD). In an ASD, ambient air is aspirated and is fed to a fire detector unit for determining a signal level. For normal operation, the suction power is set to a nominal airflow value and this is increased from a minimum signal level value in order to shorten the transport time of aspirated smoke through the suction pipe to the fire detector unit. In some embodiments, an interruption signal provided for normal operation is output if the airflow exceeds an upper limit value for a minimum period. Independently thereof, the suction power is increased from the minimum signal level value only to the extent that the airflow does not exceed the upper limit value. Or, regardless thereof, the suction power is increased only for a timespan smaller than the minimum period in which the airflow exceeds the upper limit value.
MONITORING SYSTEM CONFIGURED TO MONITOR AN AREA OF INTEREST
The monitoring system includes a support device which is displaceable, a mast which is supported by the support device, and a stabilization device configured to vertically stabilize the mast during displacements of the support device, the stabilization device including a plurality of support arms which are fastened to the mast and which are angularly offset from each other, and a plurality of air flow generation devices that are fastened to the support arms.
ASPIRATING DETECTION SYSTEM
An aspirating detection system for detecting a fire event in a monitored environment, a method of determining when an aspirator for an aspirating detection system requires maintenance, and a method of calibrating a control module for an aspirating detection system. The aspirating detection system (1) includes an aspirator (2) for sampling air from the monitored environment (100), and a vibration sensor (3) configured to monitor a vibration signature of the aspirator (2). The aspirating detection system (1) may further include a control module (4) in communication with the vibration sensor (3). The control module (4) may be configured to determine if the aspirator (2) requires maintenance based on the vibration signature of the aspirator (2).
Infrastructure-less indoor navigation in a fire control system
