Aspirating smoke detectors

systems for buildings

FIRElink-25 incorporates a patented ‘artificial intelligence‘ known
as ClassiFire ®, which allows the detector to configure itself to
optimum sensitivity, alarm thresholds and minimum nuisance
alarms for any environment.
ClassiFire intelligence also monitors the detector chamber and
dust separator for contamination, continually adjusting the
appropriate operating parameters to counteract the negative
effects of such contamination.
The FIRElink range of detectors is unique in being able to provide
a consistent level of protection in a very wide range of
environments by continuously making minor adjustments to
sensitivity.
The FIRElink range of detectors has proven its worth many times
by detecting ‘difficult-to-detect‘ slow growth electrical overload
incipient fires in ‘difficult‘ environments.
This handbook gives information likely to be needed for most
installations, but for more detailed information on subjects such as
Fresh Air Referencing, please refer to the complete Technical
Manual or System Design Guide.
This equipment is Class 111 as defined in EN60950 (i.e., this
equipment is designed to operate from Safety Extra Low Voltages
and does not generate any hazardous voltages).
NOTE: If this equipment is part of a fire detection system, it should be supplied from an approved power
supply conforming to EN54-4.
This symbol appears on the main board of the unit and indicates that the board
contains static sensitive components. Suitable anti-static precautions must be
taken when handling the board.
LASER CLASS 1
PRODUCT
This label is located on the laser chamber and signifies that the unit is a Class 1
Laser product as specified in IEC 60825-1. The unit incorporates a Class 3B
embedded laser which must not be removed from the detector as retinal
damage may result if the laser beam enters the eye.
