Air is sampled from the protected area through a network of pipes or tubes, actively drawing the air towards the detection system using a high-pressure aspirator fan. Individual sectors within the area are identified after an initial alarm is raised by instigating a rapid scan of the inlets with the rotary selector valve. The sampled air is drawn through a special high-density reflective serviceable
cylindrical detection chamber that provides sensitivity levels that other manufactures dream off.

This high-sensitivity smoke detector is an instrument quality nephelometer collecting scattered laser light from smoke particles over a full 360-degree sweep. The resultant sensitivity is an astonishing 0.001% obscuration/meter some 2000 times more sensitive than conventional smoke detectors.

With the advent of the Internet as a communications tool for remote monitoring and data-logging, ICAM is making full use of this medium. E-mail, SMS messaging and Ethernet monitoring complete this picture. This new class of product provides integrated early warning of all detectable parameters including heat, smoke, ambient temperature, CO etc with unprecedented abilities for the remote access.
