Early warning fire detector

Finalist in Fire, Life Safety, and Mass Notification in Consulting-Specifying Engineer's 2011 Product of the Year competition

By Edited by Amanda McLeman, Consulting-Specifying Engineer May 13, 2011

System Sensor’s very early warning fire detector, the FAAST Fire Alarm Aspiration Sensing Technology, protects mission-critical facilities and high-value assets from the faintest traces of smoke. The product draws air samples into its sensor through a pipe network and uses a sensitive blue LED for detection up to 60 min before combustion. An infrared laser identifies nuisances like dust that can cause false alarms and downtime. The detector interprets signals from both sources to provide early and accurate warning of the widest range of fires available. The product includes an onboard Ethernet port and e-mail status notifications.
