Apollo XP95 Multisensor Detector 55000-885APO
Apollo XP95 Multisensor Detector 55000-885APOThe XP95 multisensor Detector contains an optical smoke sensor and a thermistor temperature sensor whose outputs are combined to give the final analogue value.The multisensor construction is similar to that of the optical detector but uses a different lid and optical mouldings to accommodate the thermistor temperature sensor. The sectional view shows the arrangement of the optical chamber and thermistor.The signals from the optical smoke sensing element and the temperature sensor are independent and represent the smoke level and the air temperature respectively in the vicinity of the detector.The detectors microcontroller processes the two signals.The temperature signal processing extracts only rate of rise information for combination with the optical signal. The detector will not respond to a slow temperature increase - even if the temperature reaches a high level. A large sudden change in temperature can however cause an alarm without the presence of smoke if sustained for 20 seconds.The processing algorithms in the multisensor incorporate drift compensation. The control panel must not have a drift compensation algorithm enabled. The sensitivity of the detector is considered the optimum for most general applications since it offers good response to both smouldering and flaming fires.Key FeaturesSensitive to a wide range of firesWell suited for environments such as hotel bedroomsUnaffected by wind or atmospheric pressureOther part codes include AD-2004
