006: Fire Detectors, patient guards!

Detection of fire detector is based on fire specifications such as smoke, heat, flame and emitted gases.

There are two types of fire detection products:

1- Standalone fire detection as an independent detector with internal alarm (no need to central control panel)

2- Fire detection as a part of fire system and based on central control panel

There are different types of fire detectors:

• Spot smoke detector
• Linear smoke detector (beam detector)
• Aspirating smoke detector (Air sampling detector)
• Duct smoke detector
• Spot heat detector
• Linear heat detector (LHD)
• Fiber optic linear heat detector
• Spot combined (multi) smoke & heat detector
• Spot combined (multi) smoke & heat & CO detector
• Spot fire CO detector
• Spot gas detectors (according to gas types)
• Flame detector (UV, IR, UV/IR)

Fire detectors are produced for below applications:

• Residential area
• Industrial area
