Frequently Asked Questions Fire Alarm Aspiration Sensing Technology FAAST offer any improvements against the false alarms with aspiration systems uses a unique dual source smoke detection technology designed to it with decision making capabilities superior to other aspiration smoke ASDs currently on the market A blue LED that covers the widest of fires is used to detect smoke An infrared laser is used to detect and other typical sources of false alarm FAAST combines these dual sources with advanced algorithms to discriminate smoke from dust drastically improve both smoke detection and false alarm immunity Note that most competitive ASDs rely solely on an infrared laser for detection System Sensor offer design support for pipe network layout FAAST PipeIQ software has a Pipe Wizard feature that can virtually out the pipe network for standard room configurations For more complex the software allows the user or designer to lay out the network pipe by if required PipeIQ provides the following comprehensive assistance Design the pipe layout confirm transport times balance the system obtain layout bill of material and text reports in a pdf format Configure the 8100 unit including specify sensitivity levels configure and establish action plans with customizable e mail notifications Monitor active units either remotely via the software or globally via any browser through FAAST integral TCP IP connectivity PipeIQ can be downloaded at www systemsensor com faast Sensor also has a design and technical support team for more assistance to designers and those writing specifications FAAST include micron type filters like other ASDs the market the FAAST device offers a unique three stage filtration process the sampled air passes through a patented Particle Separator segregates large particles that are not associated with elements of The Particle Separator requires no cleaning or maintenance the sample passes through the Particle Separator it goes through replaceable 30 micron filter to further strip nuisance based particles the sample Finally as described above advanced algorithms the signals generated by the two detection sources to further nuisance particulate from the sample and determine whether alarm should be initiated Due to the particulate eliminated the Particle Separator the replaceable 30 micron filter is for 4 years normal usage double that of competitive prior to requiring maintenance for cleaning replacement periodic costs Data Center is required to run 24 hours a 7 days a week 52 weeks a year Can FAAST the environmental changes that often in this type of application includes System Sensor proven Acclimate mode enhances performance by automatically adjusting based on environmental conditions At setup users an allowable range of sensitivity levels Then during operation FAAST Acclimate mode makes necessary to sensitivity based on environmental conditions further reduces false alarms while maintaining the highest levels appropriate to conditions is the typical interface to a Fire Alarm Control FACP FAAST 8100 is a conventional device with 8 dry contact corresponding to the five Alarms Alert Alarm 1 Alarm Fire 1 and Fire 2 two Trouble Minor Fault Major Fault and conditions Therefore one could connect an 8100 unit an FACP via addressable monitor modules or addressable modules 10 via the eight alarm trouble dry relays is also available in Intelligent versions that connect to the Signaling Line Circuit of major fire alarm control manufacturers This allows the FAAST device to be on same loop as standard spot detectors and report back and trouble conditions without the need for additional or software I connect FAAST to my Building Management BMS FAAST communicates Modbus TCP via its onboard port Using the Modbus protocol FAAST can with existing Modbus BMS solutions and be read configured remotely All FAAST models ship standard with connectivity I buy a high level interface to provide the communication to a group of units costly high level interface is not required with the FAAST 8100 due to its integral TCP IP connectivity Typically a high interface is required to identify the location of the initiating However due to FAAST TCP IP connectivity up to individuals can be sent e mail notifications that discretely which unit is the initiating device and the location and of the event For example events such as initiation of of the five alarm levels or ten trouble conditions can be This provides the responding personnel the necessary to investigate the event run their operations and most importantly mitigate risk the pipe network sampling points need to be If so how often testing cleaning is recommended Vacuum preferred compressed air cleaning of the sampling points is to conducted annually or as required depending on the similar to the testing and cleaning of a standard detector Annual testing of the furthest sampling is conducted via a smoke source and the transport time measured to ensure that it is within the allowable requirement jurisdictions may require that each sampling point be as well does System Sensor manufacture the FAAST Detector FAAST 8100 is manufactured in the United States at St Charles Ill facility which also serves as our global can I learn more about the System Sensor Fire Alarm Aspiration Sensing Technology can find more information
