Aspirating smoke detectors
for fire detection and fire alarm
systems for buildings
CLASS A, B and C
Technical data: see INF48027 held
by the manufacturer
FIRElink-400 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.
FIRElink-400 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. FIRElink-400 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

Design Guide.
This equipment is Class 111 as defined in EN60950
(in other words, this equipment is designed to operate
from Safety Extra Low Voltages and does not
generate any hazardous voltages). As this equipment
is part of a fire detection system, it should be supplied
from an approved power supply conforming to EN54-
4.
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.
