Selecting the Right Detectors
Seminar Description:
To aid you in meeting all of the new standards when you are designing a fire
alarm system. We will take you through how to select the right detector,
depending on application, with the ultimate aim of helping to minimise the
incidence of false alarms. All fires must have the three properties to start in
the first place ie. oxygen, source of ignition (heat) and combustible material.
All three properties need to be taken into account when selecting the right
detector.
You will also have to take into consideration risk factors such as the areas where a fire could develop, whether it could develop rapidly, or be slow burning eg. Smouldering types. With the latter case, thought is needed on whether, under normal conditions, these areas are likely to have high levels of smoke or steam, are they clean or are the high levels of dust, etc. These factors make it essential that the correct detector is selected in your design and we will take you through all of the different options.
