    摘要: A particle detection system (100), such as an active video smoke detection system, includes at least one illumination means (102) for directing a beam (106) of radiation through at least part of the air volume being monitored (110), an image sensor (104) is positioned to capture images of at least part of a beam (106) from illumination means (102); and means to analyze (107) the captured images to detect the presence of particles within the volume. At least 29 different aspects are described for improving the sensitivity, usability, and robustness of particle detection. These include, for example, configuring illumination means (102) to create a curtain of light or a rapidly-scanned beam across the air volume (110), and configuring a reflector to steer or change direction of a beam reflected from illumination means (102).

    摘要: There is described a duct detector (1) and components (2, 3, 6) for duct detectors. In one form the duct detector (1) includes: a port unit (3) and detector unit (2). The port unit (3) is mountable to a duct in use so as to position one or more ports in the duct. The detector unit (2) includes a detection region. The port unit (3) and detector unit (2) are reconfigurable between a close coupled configuration and a separated configuration in which the units (2,3) are mountable with a variable separation between them and coupled by one or more elongate conduits (12A, 12B) to provide fluid communication between the units (2,3).

    摘要: The invention relates to a particle detector, systems, and methods for detecting the presence of particles in a volume of air, most particularly it relates to detection systems and methods that use multiple modes of detection to detect the presence of particles. Preferably the particles being detected are particles that indicate an actual or incipient fire, or pyrolysis, such as smoke.

    摘要: A method of determining at least one point of entry of smoke into a smoke detection system, the system having a sampling pipe network including at least one sampling pipe and a plurality of sampling inlets through which an air sample can enter the at least one sampling pipe of the smoke detection system for analysis by a particle detector, said method including: determining a volume of sample air that has passed through at least part of the smoke detection system since a predetermined event or a value corresponding to said volume; and determining through which sampling inlet of the plurality of sampling inlets the smoke entered the smoke detection system based, at least in part, on the determined volume or value. Systems for implementing such a method and related methods are also described.
