FAS-420-TM series
FAS‑ASD‑WS Water Separator for condensing water vapor
and collecting condensate from the pipe system
1 Water separator
2 Pipe system connection
3 45° pipe elbow
The FAS‑ASD‑WS Water Separator can be operated in a temperature range from 0°C to
+50°C. The sintered metal filter in the water separator has a pore width of 50µm and causes
an additional rough absorption of soil particles.The FAS-ASD-WS is supplied with an angle
support and PG cable glands. The 45° pipe elbows (4 units) must be ordered separately.

7 Detonation safety barrier
Vapor/air and/or gas/air mixture ignition in the aspirating smoke detector may result in pipe
explosion or detonation. This depends on the composition, concentration, temperature, and
pressure of the flammable mixture.
The detonation safety barrier is a flame trap that is flame-proof in the face of pipe explosions
(deflagrations) and detonations.
