Technical Description

Functions
The aspiration unit in the basic device takes air samples from the protected
area via a pipe system with defined sampling points and carries them to the
sensitive detector module (see fig. „Overview air sampling smoke detection
system TITANUS
®
").
Depending on the display sensitivity of the selected detector module (levels
of 0.05 %/m, 0.01 %/m or 0.0015 %/m light obscuration can be selected),
TITANUS
TOP·SENS
®
activates the alarm when the corresponding light ob-
scuration is achieved. Four different sensitivities can be set. Three alarm
levels (alert alarm, action alarm and fire alarm) are indicated on the device
via the alarm LED and transmitted to a central fire alarm system (FAS).
Different delay periods can be set for the alarm thresholds, fault indicator
and fault transmission (see chapter Installation „Settings“).
Alarm reports are saved and the indicators have to be reset after eliminating
cause of the alarm.
By using two detector modules, TITANUS
TOP·SENS
®
2 can monitor two
areas as described above.
Via the additional input “AltSens” on the connection board of TITANUS
TOP·SENS
®
the adjusted detector modules can be set one step less sensi-
tive (e.g. the sensor modules would thus be switched from a sensitivity of 0.4
%/m to 0.8 %/m).
By changing the sensitivity of the modules, it is possible to adjust the smoke
detection to operational interferences such as
▪ increase of aerosol or dirt particles in the protected area depending on
the time of day (day/night operation).
▪ increase of aerosol or dirt particles in the protected area depending on
activity (e.g. maintenance work, welding or increase of steam, waste
gases and dust).
TITANUS
®
incorporates an intelligent signal processing system with
LOGIC·
SENS, which can be activated and deactivated with a switch at the
detector module. This fades out interferences and contributes to a safe op-
eration and avoiding false alarms.
