Alert Smoke
Safety And Security with Advanced Smoke Detectors
Deaths from fire burns are amongst the most common unintentional tragedies all across the globe. With so much advancement in technology, we have been introduced to several devices and phenomenon that help to prevent such accidental happenings. Advanced smoke detector is one such device that not only senses or detects the smoke / heat / fire but also alerts people with a loud electronic horn.
Today, the market seems to be dotted with countless smoke detectors and fire alarm panels. Smoke detector manufacturers club these devices with hi-tech sprinklers that shower heavy flow of water immediately on the zone where there is a fire. With a heavy use of these fire alarm panels or smoke detectors, the injuries and deaths from fire have been reduced up to a large extent.
Most Common Types of Smoke Detectors
Generally, you will come across two types of smoke detectors in the market:
Photoelectric Detectors
As the name suggests, these detectors work on a phenomenon based on the laser lighting. The device is designed in a way that triggers a bell every time whenever it is unable to ‘see' the laser light. This means, if there is a fire of smoke near the detector, it will distract the path of light coming towards the sensor. And the very next moment, you hear the alarm indicating smoke or fire.
You can see the similar detectors in the threshold of the entry of any shopping mall or store. The laser light is fitted on one end and the photo-detector on the other. Whenever you pass through the threshold, the light gets blocked for a moment and the detector triggers a bell.
Ionization Detectors
Ionization detector is the most advanced type of smoke detection device that is based on the phenomenon of ionizing radiation. The best part with this detector lies in the fact that it is cheaper in cost and is capable of detecting even a smaller amount of smoke or heat. The device is clubbed with an ionizing chamber with two plates (designed to attract positively charges oxygen & nitrogen and negatively charged electrons).
Whenever there is smoke or fire, the smoke particles attach to the ions, due to which the current between both the plates gets dropped. This simple phenomenon triggers the alarm.
Though both types of smoke detectors are effective and popular among people but the ionizing detectors are designed to respond more quickly in comparison to the photoelectric detectors. You may choose any of them for your home or office premises but you must be aware of the technique and functioning of both the types. It will help you understand the technical fault in case of any failure, and also in switching the alarm off whenever you are cooking food in the kitchen.
