ABSTRACT
Abstract
The Advanced Discovery System (ADICOS
®
) is used for early detection of fires in industrial
environments. It is comprised of various, separate detector units. By parameterizing and
arranging the detectors appropriately, the system fulfills a predefined detection goal. The ADI-
COS system ensures reliable early detection of embers and smoldering fires even in adverse
environments.
ADICOS GSME fire gas detectors detect at an early stage gases that are characteristic for
developing fires. They detect both open and concealed smoldering fires. Highly sensitive and
at the same time robust, they are ideal for fire gas detection in industrial environments – and
already in the incipient stage. With the ADICOS software, all detector states and concentration
curves can be displayed graphically. Sensitivities as well as alarm thresholds can be param
-
eterized individually for each detector. The GSME fire gas detectors can be used in almost any
indoor plant area, taking into account the air flow conditions.
Four parameterizable semiconductor gas sensors monitor and evaluate the concentration
curve of these gases according to multi-criteria technology. This enables the GSME detectors
to distinguish real fires from interference signals. In industrial environments, this often occurs
under harsh conditions, e.g. due to vehicle exhaust fumes, dust, mist or vapor.
ADICOS GME-X20 detectors are designed for operation in hazardous dust atmospheres up to
ATEX zone 20.
