VEU-A00-UL ASPIRATING SMOKE DETECTOR (HIGHEST SENSITIVITY ASD)


The VEU series of aspirating smoke detectors are the premium detector of the VESDA-E range. An Ultra-wide sensitivity range; 15 times greater than VESDA VLP, and provision for more sampling holes provide an increased coverage in high airflow applications by at least 40%. Considerably longer linear pipe runs and extended branched pipe network configurations cater perfectly to applications with higher ceilings providing an increased coverage by up to 80% whilst allowing convenient detector mounting for ease of service and maintenance. A range of revolutionary new features provide unsurpassed detection performance, flexibility, field programmability, connectivity and reduced total cost of ownership.
Product Description
- Flair detection technology delivers reliable very early warning in a wide range of environments with minimal nuisance alarms
- Short wavelength laser-based detection:
- High sensitivity from small particle light scattering
- No drift compensation required since focused light directed at target gives low backgrounds
- High stability with temperature and time
- Multi stage filtration and optical protection with clean air barriers ensures lifetime detection performance
- Four alarm levels and an ultra wide sensitivity range deliver optimum protection for the widest range of applications
- Intuitive LCD icon display provides instant status information for immediate response
- Flow fault thresholds per port accommodate varying airflow conditions
- Smart on-board filter retains dust count and remaining filter life for predictable maintenance
- Extensive event log (20,000 events) for event analysis and system diagnostics
- AutoLearn™ smoke and flow for reliable and rapid commissioning
- Referencing to accommodate external environmental conditions to minimise nuisance alarms
- Backward compatible with VLP and VESDAnet
- Ethernet for connectivity with Xtralis software for configuration, secondary monitoring and maintenance
- USB for PC configuration, and firmware upgrade using a memory stick
- Two programmable GPIs (1 monitored) for flexible remote control
- Field replaceable sub-assemblies enable faster service and maximum uptime
