Air Sampling Fire and Smoke Detection
Depending on the materials burning, some fires burn with no or only a small amount of visible smoke, and others burn with much greater volumes of smoke. Dust and pollutants can be inadvertently detected as smoke by laser and optical detectors, resulting in a false alarm. Cirrus HYBRID uses "CCD" Detection to determine if there is pre-smoke particulate in the air, and "SCD" Detection to determine if there is smoke in the air. If the CCD detects pre-smoke particulate in the air, but no smoke, it can alarm. If the SCD detects and the CCD does not, it is a false alarm. Together they give you a combined fire signal, and proven alarm.
