Duct Detectors System

It helps prevent smoke from spreading through the ventilation system by triggering alarms and controlling air-handling equipment.

Duct Detectors System

A Duct Detector System is a fire detection solution designed to detect smoke within HVAC and air-handling ducts. It uses a specialized smoke detector with sampling tubes to monitor air passing through the duct and can send an alarm signal to the fire alarm control panel when smoke is detected. 

Duct detector systems are commonly used in commercial buildings, offices, hospitals, shopping malls, hotels, industrial facilities, and large HVAC installations. They help identify smoke movement through ventilation systems and can be integrated with HVAC controls to support appropriate emergency actions.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Duct Detector System?

A duct detector system is a smoke detection arrangement installed in HVAC air ducts to detect smoke moving through the ventilation system and help prevent it from spreading to other areas.

Where are Duct Detector Systems commonly used?
They are commonly used in commercial buildings, hospitals, offices, shopping malls, hotels, industrial facilities, and other buildings with centralized HVAC systems.
How does a Duct Detector System work?
The detector samples air flowing through the duct. When smoke is detected above the set threshold, it sends a signal to the fire alarm control panel and can activate HVAC controls, such as shutting down air-handling equipment, according to the system design.
