In these modes the detector will nat respond to a slow temperature increase ~ even if the temperature reaches a high level. A large sudden change in temperature can, however, cause an alarm without the presence of smoke, if sustained for 20 seconds Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detectors allow access to unprocessed temperature information (see note 1) “The raw temperature data can be used in conjunction with the analogue value to enhance alarm signal processing and ‘The Discovery OpticalHeat Mulisensor provide an additional level of safety. Detector contains an optical smoke sensor and a thermistor temperature sensor whose outputs are combined to give the final analogue valve. The way in which the signals from the twa sensors are combined depends on the response mode selected. The five modes provide response behaviour which incorporates pure heat detection, pure smoke detection ancl a combination of Lboth.

Mode 1 has very high smoke sensitivity combined with high heat sensitivity. This ves a high overall sensitivity to both smouldering and flaming fies ‘Mode has a smoke sensivily similarto that of a nosal optical smoke detector: This mode is therefore equivalent to 3 standarel optical detector It is utablefor applications in which wide temperature changes occur under normal conditions ‘Mode 3 has moderate smoke sensitivity combined with a moderate sensitivity 0 heat. This combination is considered the optimum for mast general applications since it offers good response to both smouldering and flaming fies ‘Mode 4 has lower than normal smoke sensitivity combined with high heat sensitivity. This makes it suitable for applications in which a certain amount fumes or smoke is considered normal Mode 5 has no smoke sensitivity at all, but gives a pure heat detector response meeting the response time requirements fot a Clas AIR detector in the European standard EN 545. In this macle the detector will respond ta slowly changing temperatures and has a “fixed temperature” alarm threshold at 58°C. The analogue value inthis mode will give the appraximateair temperature over the range 15°C to 55°C, In mode 5, the smoke sensor is still active though it does not contribute to the analogue signal, As consequence, ifthe detectors used in acty or smoky environment the optical sensor dit fag may be activated in the heat-only mode.

In situ testing of the Multisensor detector should be carried out as for simoke detectors in response mode 2 and for heat detectors in response ‘mode 5, Both optical and heat sensors ‘must be tested in modes 1,3 and 4 3.
