Smoke Detector
A detector that senses smoke particles in the early stage of a fire, generally well before flame or significant heat develops. That early warning is what gives occupants time to evacuate and staff time to tackle a small fire before it grows. Wired into a conventional or addressable panel. Suited to offices, corridors, stores, electrical rooms and residential areas — but not to kitchens or dusty or steamy environments, where a heat detector is the correct choice.
