SERIES 200 PLUS ANALOGUE ADDRESSABLE DETECTOR RANGE

INTRODUCTION

System Sensor’s Series 200 plus range of plug in smoke detectors are a family of analogue addressable smoke detectors combining state of the art design with micro-processor control and sophisticated processing circuitry to provide fast, efficient fire detection in a wide range of applications.

All Series 200 plus detectors have two integral LEDs, which provide local visual indication of the sensor status. These LEDs provide a dual function. In the event of an alarm, they are switched ON continuously, and can also be programmed to either blink when polled by the panel or remain off during normal conditions. In addition to their integral LEDs, Series 200 plus detectors can be connected to a remote LED indicator.

The individual loop address of each Series 200 plus detector can be easily set and read, using the rotary decade address switches located on the rear of each sensor. The use of decimal address codes significantly reduces the potential for incorrect address selection.

Each sensor base includes a tamper resistant option which, when activated, prevents the removal of the sensor from its base without the use of a tool.

Full circuit functionality can be easily confirmed on site by use of the sensor test switch. This comprises a switch operated by a magnet near the side of the detector. Operation of this magnetic switch simulates the effect of smoke or heat on the detector, and will generate an alarm response to the fire alarm control panel, making system testing both convenient and simple.

BS5839 specifications

System Sensor BS5839 is a standard that pertains to fire detection and alarm systems, providing guidelines for the design, installation, and maintenance of these essential safety tools. It is crucial for safeguarding lives and property, ensuring that fire detection systems are effective and reliable. The BS5839 standard, established in the UK, covers a wide range of fire alarm system types, including conventional, addressable, and wireless systems.

One of the main features of BS5839 is its comprehensive classification of fire detection systems. The standard divides systems into categories based on the level of risk and the environment in which the system will operate. This classification helps ensure that the system installed meets the specific needs of the building and its occupants. For example, Category L systems are meant for life safety, while Category P systems are designed to protect property.

The technologies underpinning BS5839 include various types of detectors, alarm devices, and control panels. Smoke detectors, heat detectors, and multi-sensor detectors are prominent among the devices specified in the standard. Smoke detectors use photoelectric or ionization principles to detect smoke and signal an alarm, while heat detectors respond to temperature changes. Multi-sensor detectors combine both smoke and heat detection technologies to provide a more reliable response to fire conditions.

Another key characteristic of BS5839 is the emphasis on regular testing and maintenance. The standard outlines procedures to ensure that systems remain operational and effective over time. This includes routine system checks, functional testing, and more in-depth inspections at regular intervals. Ensuring that systems are maintained according to BS5839 is vital for compliance with insurance requirements and for safeguarding against potential legal liabilities.

Furthermore, BS5839 highlights the importance of staff training and awareness. It emphasizes that personnel responsible for fire safety must be adequately trained in the operation and response to fire alarm systems. This ensures that in the event of a fire, occupants are prompted to take appropriate action and evacuate safely.

In summary, System Sensor BS5839 provides a crucial framework for fire detection and alarm systems. Its classification of systems, incorporation of advanced technologies, and emphasis on maintenance all contribute to enhanced safety and compliance, protecting lives and property effectively.
