Description
MCS-PTIR and MCS-PTIR-IV are intelligent, multi-criteria detectors that combine photoelectric, thermal, and infrared (PTIR) sensors in one unit to sense multiple components of a fire. This approach enables enhanced sensitivity to real fire with heightened immunity to nuisance particulates. Multiple sensors and communication can greatly reduce nuisance alarms compared to single sensing methods. Sophisticated algorithms maximize the advantages of all four sensor types creating our best detection strategy offering heightened immunity to nuisance particulate and enhanced sensitivity to real fire.
