Aspirating smoke detectors

FIRElink-100 incorporates a patented ‘artificial intelligence‘
known as ClassiFire ®, which allows the detector to configure
itself to optimum sensitivity, alarm thresholds and minimum
nuisance alarms for any environment. ClassiFire intelligence
also monitors the detector chamber and dust separator for
contamination, continually adjusting the appropriate operating
parameters to counteract the negative effects of such
contamination.
The FIRElink range of detectors is unique in being able to
provide a consistent level of protection in a very wide range
of environments by continuously making minor adjustments
to sensitivity. The FIRElink range of detectors has proven its
worth many times by detecting ‘difficult-to-detect‘ slow growth
electrical overload incipient fires in ‘difficult‘ environments.
This handbook gives information likely to be needed for most
installations, but for more detailed information on subjects
such as Fresh Air Referencing, please refer to the complete
Technical Manual or System Design Guide.
This equipment is Class 111 as defined in EN60950 (i.e., this
equipment is designed to operate from Safety Extra Low
Voltages and does not generate any hazardous voltages).
NOTE: If this equipment is part of a fire detection system, it should be supplied from an approved power
supply conforming to EN54-4.
This symbol appears on the main board of the unit and indicates that the board
contains static sensitive components. Suitable anti-static precautions must be
taken when handling the board.
LASER CLASS 1
PRODUCT
This label is located on the laser chamber and signifies that the unit is a Class 1
Laser product as specified in IEC 60825-1. The unit incorporates a Class 3B
embedded laser that must not be removed from the detector as retinal damage
may result if the laser beam enters the eye.
