be installed per manufacturer instructions pipe network programming and power requirements and shall comply one or more of the following codes and standards Fire Protection Association NFPA Fire Protection Association EN 54 Electrical Code NEC 268 Standard for Smoke Detectors for Open Areas 268A Standard for Smoke Detectors for Duct Application codes and standards REQUIREMENTS Aspirating Smoke Detector ASD shall offer various classifications to Very Early Warning Smoke Detection VEWFD Early Warning Smoke EWFD and Standard Smoke Detection SFD settings as identified the requirements of NFPA ASD shall be self contained and monitored by a display featuring LEDs LCD to include a control system utilizing microprocessor based 2015 with all functions fully programmable LED displays alarm indications and detector faults system shall constantly sample air from the environment In operation air be drawn from the air sampling piping network through a particle separator a 30 micron filter assembly being pulled through the detection chamber by aspirator The system shall not rely on air currents to bring smoke to the Inside the smoke detection chamber air shall be exposed to a blue and infrared laser light source Light scattered by smoke particles shall flow the chamber and be detected by solid state receivers which shall the light to an electronic signal ASD shall incorporate a dual light source technology system for the discrimination of signals from non fire related sources such as dust system shall automatically compensate for changes in environmental and the negative effect of filter contamination ASD shall display a series of LEDs or be visible via an interactive LCD The shall include a Reset Isolate and Test functions on the front of the panel system shall be configured by a programmer that is PC based via PipeIQ program shall allow the following detector parameters to be configured to five threshold alarm levels Alert Action 1 Action 2 Fire 1 and 2 reset and isolate functions from remote locations pipe network and ability to calculate obscurations levels times sample hole diameters flow and pressure levels allow the ability to program the detector to three different settings night and weekend mode mode shall automatically adjust alarm levels within user parameters to reduce nuisance alarms program shall allow the ASD firmware to be updated in the field by system and maintainers ASD shall have the capability to connect to the building system via Modbus Protocol utilizing a TCP server or connection using RS 485 local networking capability and monitoring through the onboard Ethernet allowing for up to six email addresses Each address shall be to notify the recipient of a specific alarm level fault level or isolate Performance Requirements shall be tested and approved to cover up to 5,000 sq ft 464 m 8,000 sq ft 744 sq m 28,800 sq ft 2,680 sq m shall be approved to monitor up to five alarm levels Each level be programmable and able to select desired sensitivity ranging 0.00029 ft 6.0 ft UL approval compliance recognizes ranges from 0.00029 ft 4.0 ft 2015 shall report alarms and faults using fault relays or direct via the SLC loop if applicable shall include a field replaceable filter and an internal particle to reduce the amount of non combustible materials reaching detection chamber software shall provide pipe design system configuration and monitoring in a single software program It shall store up to events Events shall include smoke levels alarm conditions actions and faults The date and time of each event shall be front panel of the detector shall indicate flow faults configuration monitor time communication trouble filter isolation voltage high flow faults via dedicated LEDs or an LCD display ASD shall use ultrasonic sensors to confirm proper air flow through pipe network and produce a fault when there is a change of a user percentage from nominal air flow ASD shall store vital statistics including airflow obscuration signal alarm levels fan speed and temperature The frequency with these statistics are stored shall be adjustable shall be complete in all ways and shall include all engineering and installation all detection and control equipment auxiliary devices and alarm interfaces functional testing training and all other operations for a functional UL Listed and FM Approved system product data and site drawings indicating the system layout including of modules detection aspiration unit air intake ports flow calculations times power requirements and sample hole obscuration sensitivity calculations method and spacing of hanger supports on aspirating tube to the building commissioning data shall be supplied as recommended per instructions within 30 days of installation Drawings completion of the installation the Contractor shall revise aspirating system design files calculations manuals and operating to agree with on site conditions a copy of the manufacturer installation operation and manuals construction drawings shall be stamped sealed by a licensed Engineer in the state where the work is being constructed a NICET level III or higher certified fire alarm technician 2015 ASSURANCE Requirements manufacturer shall have a minimum of 30 years of production in the manufacturing and design of smoke detection devices ASD shall have dual source blue LED and infrared laser optical detection for a wide range of fire detection with enhanced to nuisance particulates The ASD shall operate in air flows 0 4000 ft min 0 1,219 m min The system software shall provide design system configuration and system monitoring in a single program ASD shall offer Very Early Warning Smoke Detection Early Warning Detection and Standard Smoke Detection settings The ASD offer a wide range of sensitivity settings from 0.00029 ft 4.0 ft detector shall be capable of operating in temperatures from 32 to 100 38 Sampled air temperatures shall range from to 140 60 Operating humidity shall range from 10 95 equipment installer shall be authorized and trained by the and shall have the ability to design a system based on requirements The installer shall be capable of
