Detect smoke particles. Photoelectric = good for smoldering fires; ionization = fast flaming fires; multi-sensor combines heat+smoke; aspirating (VESDA) pipes air continuously and detects very early.
Note:<\/em> Aspirating systems are used in data centres \/ clean rooms for earliest possible detection.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n

Heat Detectors (Fixed-temp & Rate-of-Rise \/ Combination)<\/strong>
Detect high temperature or rapid temp rise; used where smoke detectors give false alarms (kitchens, dusty areas).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Manual Call Point (Break Glass \/ Push Button \/ Addressable MCP)<\/strong>
Human-operated alarm initiator (break glass). Usually mounted near exits and lift lobbies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Beam Detectors<\/strong>
For large open areas (warehouses) \u2014 a transmitter\/receiver pair that detects smoke across long distances.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
