the system designer will frequently employ a reference detector.

A referencing system depends upon the basic equation:-

[pollution entering the area] - [pollution leaving the area]  =  [pollution added from

within the area]

On the face of it, this seems to offer a complete solution to the problem.  One detector

is sited to measure the level of pollution at the air inlet to the area and another is sited

to measure the pollution of the air at the outlet from the area.  The difference between

these two readings is used to trigger an alarm if it rises above a given alarm level.  If no

pollution is added from inside the area the difference between the two readings will be

zero.

There are certain problems which occur in implementing the theory.  The most obvious

one is that, for a detector with a sensitivity of 0.1% obs/m full scale, the two

measurements must track one another to within 1%. Another is that the signal from a

detector does not carry on rising indefinitely, it reaches a ceiling where, in spite of

increasing pollution the output signal will no longer rise.  If the signal from the reference

detector is at this level, the detector will not be able to rise above it.

example:

reference detector at inlet can give a signal of 1 volt per 1% obs/m.
with a maximum output of 10 volts.

detector at outlet can give a signal of 1 volt per 1% obs/m. with a
maximum output of 10 volts.

alarm will be signalled if the difference becomes greater than 0.1 volts.

If the inlet detector senses 10% obs/m or more, its output will be 10 volts and this is

the maximum it can give. The same, or more, will be detected by the detector at the

outlet, but it too cannot give an output above 10 volts.

[pollution entering the area] - [pollution leaving the area]  = [pollution added]
                                     [10] - [10]                                =  [0]    regardless of pollution

         added within the area

Stratos™ solves this problem by ensuring the detector is always able to go into alarm

using it’s patented ClassiFire™ technology.  However there is another problem which
