Fire detection systems include infrared, photoelectronic, ionization, smoke and heat detectors:

 • Infrared Beam Smoke Detectors
Beam smoke detectors are suited for protecting areas with high ceilings where other types of smoke detectors are difficult to install and maintain. Beam smoke detectors can be used in garage or warehouse applications to provide early warning in environments where temperatures exceed the capacity of conventional smoke detectors.

 • Photoelectronic Smoke Detectors
Photoelectronic smoke detectors contain a unique optical sensing chamber designed to detect smoke particles produced by a wide range of combustion sources.

 • Ionization Smoke Detectors
Ionization smoke detectors have a detection chamber that will sense the presence of smoke particles by fast combustion as well as smoldering fires.

 • Heat, Thermal Detectors
Thermal heat detectors contain a heat sensing circuit that can sense rapid increases in temperature. If temperature increases too fast or increases above a certain point, the detector will communicate an alarm to the fire alarm control panel.
