Product Details
The Cirrus CCD’s early detection capability is a unique technology within the aspirating detection world. It identifies combustion particles released when a material overheats, enabling it to detect fires during the true incipient stage before smoke is visible. This early detection capability empowers you to take prompt action, such as early evacuation or protecting valuable equipment, such as data centres and cleanrooms, ensuring the safety of your environment.
In some challenging applications, typical ‘Optical only’ aspirating detection systems can sometimes be prone to false alarms. However, a Cloud Chamber Detector (CCD) aspirating system like the Cirrus CCD significantly reduces these false alarms. This is achieved through its advanced technology, which focuses on detecting invisible combustion particles rather than visible smoke and some non-fire phenomenon.
Therefore, the Cirrus CCD technology offers an expansive sensitivity range from, cleanroom type applications, to much more challenging environments where dust, steam, condensation, and temperature changes may be present.
The integrated 7-inch full-colour LCD touchscreen replaces outdated buttons with modern touch screen intuitive menus. The Cirrus CCD’s controls and environmental flexibility make it a standout solution in the aspirating detection industry.
Key Features
Earliest Warning – With the accuracy of Cloud Chamber Detection, combustion particles can be identified before smoke is generated.
Resistant to False alarms – The reliability of CCD technology means dust, humidity, and temperature changes don’t cause false alarms.
Large Touch Screen – The 7” full-colour multi-function LCD display allows for ease of use through its intuitive menus.
Cloud Chamber Detection – Our unique CCD works as the primary detection method for detecting fires at the earliest possible stage.
Programmable Alarm Outputs – Complete with up to five programmable alarm outputs can be utilised to send signals to third party systems in the event of a fire.
Individual Area Detection – With one to four detection areas per aspirator it allows for individual identification to determine the exact area of a fire.
