For October’s product of the month we would like to bring to your attention Eurofyre’s very own ProFyre Analogue Addressable Smoke and Heat Detectors. This stylish range of detectors has been designed to accompany our ProFyre A2 and A4 addressable fire alarm control panels and includes devices for several detection types.
Housed in a stylish, low-profile plastic enclosure, each ProFyre detector offers 360° LED indication and can be addressed either by DIP switches or a hand-held programmer. All of the ProFyre range devices can be coupled with a sandwich sounder and therefore fitting of a sounder base is not essential should audibility be an issue. ProFyre devices can also be be locked to their base to stop unauthorised removal.
Approvals
All ProFyre detectors carry approvals from the Loss Prevention Certification Board (LPCB) and bear the CE mark, indicating they are reliable and safe for installation and use in any country within the EU and other countries (including some in the Middle East) that follow the BS5839 regulations.
Detector Types
There are four types of detector available in the ProFyre Analogue Addressable range:
ProFyre Addressable Optical Detector
The ProFyre Optical Smoke Detector is best suited for detecting dense smoke from fires that most commonly involve PVC, plastic, foam and soft furnishings. It uses a pulsing infrared (IR) LED and a photodiode to detect IR scatter, caused by smoke, in the detection chamber.
ProFyre A2S Detector (Fixed Heat)
The ProFyre AS2 Detector raises an alarm once its temperature reaches 57℃. Heat detectors such as these are best placed in areas such as vehicle loading bays where the there is a high level of dust or fumes present in the atmosphere.
ProFyre A1R Heat Detector (Rate of Rise)
ProFyre A1R Heat Detectors also trigger an alarm once they reach a predefined temperature. However an alarm is also triggered should a rapid rise in temperature be detected by its sophisticated thermistor ensemble.
ProFyre Addressable Combined Smoke & Heat Detector
The ProFyre Combined Smoke and Heat Detector in the ProFyre range uses the technology from both the ProFyre smoke detector and heat detector.
