3.2.1 Parameter sets for the radio smoke detector DOW1171
The radio smoke detector DOW1171 has efficient detection algorithms to
distinguish between fire events and deceptive phenomena. Measured values
above a response threshold are not the only basis for reaching a danger level. The
smoke density progression is also observed over a longer period of time and
evaluated using algorithms.
The algorithms contain among other things filters to suppress short-term
disturbances. Slow signal changes as a result of soiling are compensated for by
automatic digital compensation. The extremely slow compensation ensures that
very slowly developing fires can be detected too.
The sensitivity of alarm activation by radio smoke detectors DOW1171 can be set
per detector point.

Environmental influences
The smoke sensitivity of the radio smoke detector DOW1171 typically changes
±10 % over the entire operating temperature range.
The radio smoke detector DOW1171 is resistant to ambient light, air flows and
other changes within the specified data.
