Aspirating Smoke Detection (ASD) Systems
Active Fire Protection
An aspirating smoke detector (ASD) is a highly effective system used in active fire protection. It features a central detection unit that continuously draws air through a network of pipes to monitor for smoke. At the heart of the system is a sampling chamber based on a nephelometer, which identifies smoke particles by detecting the light they scatter while suspended in air. With the ability to detect smoke before it becomes visible, these systems provide an advanced level of early warning. At FireOut, our ASD System Installation and Maintenance services ensure that your system is expertly set up and regularly serviced to deliver maximum reliability and compliance.
Rapid Smoke Detection
ASDs are suitable for environments where a highly sensitive rapid smoke detection capability is required. This makes them suitable in clean rooms; areas which contain goods easily damaged by fire, such as tobacco, electronic rooms and highly flammable liquid and gases. Often, normal point detectors will recognise the danger too late, as smoke often does not reach the ceiling quick enough for a fire to be detected in a timely fashion.
As they can be easily hidden, pipe networks are suitable in environments where point detectors can be considered aesthetically displeasing, such as offices, apartments and hotel rooms. This factor also makes them suitable in locations where point detectors can be easily tampered with, such as in correctional facilities.
Suitable for a range of implementations
Despite their high sensitivity ASDs can be used in dusty or dirty environments as long as correct design, installation and maintenance processes are followed. Most ASD products can accommodate a broad range of environments and applications – from both confined and open spaces to the cleanest or dirtiest environment, including telecom, control rooms, waste treatment, mining and more.
