Abstract

Die Empfindlichkeit von Streulicht-Brandmeldern für kleine Partikel lässt sich erheblich steigern, wenn in das Messvolumen zusätzlich zu einer Infrarotstrahlung blaues Licht eingestrahlt wird und die an den Partikeln entstehenden Streustrahlungen sowohl im Vorwärtsstreubereich als auch im Rückwärtsstreubereich im infraroten und blauen Bereich getrennt voneinander gemessen und ausgewertet werden.The sensitivity of stray light fire detectors for small Particles can be significantly increased when in the measurement volume in addition to infrared radiation blue light is irradiated and the resulting from the particles Stray radiation both in the forward scattering area and in the Backscatter area in the infrared and blue areas be measured and evaluated separately from each other.

Dies lässt sich mittels eines Brandmelders verwirklichen, der zwei Sende-LEDs (2.1a, 2.1b) und zwei Fotoempfänger (2.2a, 2.2b) umfasst, wobei diese vier Komponenten so angeordnet sind, dass die Fotoempfänger sowohl die Vorwärtsstreustrahlungen als auch die Rückwärtsstreustrahlungen der längeren und der kürzeren Wellenlänge getrennt voneinander empfangen. Den Fotoempfängern ist eine entsprechende, mehrkanalige Auswerteschaltung nachgeschaltet.

Figure 00000001
This can be realized by means of a fire detector comprising two transmitting LEDs (2.1a, 2.1b) and two photoreceptors (2.2a, 2.2b), these four components being arranged so that the photoreceivers detect both the forward scattered and backscattered radiations receive the longer and the shorter wavelength separately. The photoreceivers are followed by a corresponding multi-channel evaluation circuit.
