Optical Smoke Detector

An optical smoke detector, also known as a photoelectric smoke alarm, is a sophisticated device designed to detect smoke presence using advanced optical technology. It features a light emitter, which can be optical, infrared, or ultraviolet, paired with a sensitive light sensor. When smoke particles interrupt the light beam, the intensity reaching the sensor decreases, triggering the alarm. This type of smoke detector is highly effective in identifying slow, smoldering fires, making it ideal for early fire detection in homes and commercial spaces. Its reliable operation ensures timely alerts, enhancing safety and reducing the risk of fire-related incidents.
