2 LaserSense 100 Aspirating Smoke Detector Installers Handbook
Introduction
This detector is a highly sophisticated next generation high sensitivity aspirating
smoke detection product that provides all the benefits of air sampling high
sensitivity smoke detection, including very early warning. Designed for easy
installation and commissioning, the detector 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 various
environments.
The detector operates by drawing air from a protected space via a supervised
piping network in relatively small areas. The sampled air is passed through a
dust separator (filter) to remove dust and dirt before entering the laser detection
chamber. State-of-the-art electronics are used to analyse the sampled air and
generate a signal representing the level of smoke present.
ClassiFire intelligence also monitors the detector chamber, continually adjusting
the appropriate operating parameters to counteract the negative effects of any
contamination. Aspirating smoke detectors are 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.
Available software for the detector
The following software applications are available for use with the detector:
• Remote: Provided free of charge with every detector, this software package
enables the user to set up and configure the programmable functions of one
or more detectors or command module from a computer connected via an
RS-232 serial cable.
• SenseNET: SenseNET software is used to configure and manage a large
network of detectors with a simple, streamlined graphical user interface from
a computer connected to a detector or command module via an RS-232 serial
cable to RS-485 converter interface.
