Addressable smoke detector

Smoke detectors are vital tools in fire alarm systems that are used to detect smoke and announce its presence in an environment. These devices to detect particles or small particles in the air that usually because of combustion of materials, including wood, plastic or other organic material, are created and used.

Smoke detectors can be in several forms and types:

1. Optical detectors: These detectors use light and a sensor to detect smoke. When smoke enters the device, the light diffuses differently, which is detected by the sensors and the alarm is activated.

2. Thermal-Smoke Detectors (Heat-Optical Detectors): These types of detectors use both thermal and optical detector methods to have the best diagnosis for fire.

Smoke detectors are generally installed in fire alarm or automatic fire extinguishing systems (such as sprinkler systems) to quickly warn and initiate the necessary measures to control and prevent the spread of fire.
