The Next Generation HSSD HART XL
Why Hart XL Aspirating Smoke Detection? l Earliest detection to enable business continuity l Extra time is required for safe evacuation l Unnecessary suppression release must be avoided l Smoke is difficult to detect l Environmentally challenging areas l Aesthetics & concealed detection are important l Maintenance access is limited

HART Detector Schematic
Detector Operation
Balanced sampling system
Pipe Network l Pipe has sealed end l Variable length pipe branches l Pipe layout as desired l Sample holes located where required l Sample hole sizes vary to balance system
Distributed Sampling Types l Computer calculated systems “SNIFF” l Balanced system l Equal sensitivity at each hole
Offshore platform Warehouse Computer/EDP rooms Libraries/Deed stores Heritage buildings Telecommunications High Sensitivity Smoke Detection Applications
Heritage Buildings & Architectural Landmarks l Important buildings l Discreet detection l High value articles l Aesthetics
Museums & Libraries l Valuable equipment artefacts etc. l Discrete detection l Busy environments l Life protection
Earliest Detection to Enable Business Continuity Critical processes that cannot incur any business disruption l Telecommunications facilities l Computer rooms l Banking operations l Production facilities l Internet Service Providers
Extra Time is Required for Controlled Evacuation Environments where rapid exit can be impeded l Underground Stations l Theatres l Public buildings l Airports
Unnecessary Suppression Release can be Avoided Early warning gives time to investigate to avoid unnecessary suppression release l Telecommunication facilities l EDP facilities l Computer rooms l Electrical sub-stations
Smoke is Difficult to Detect Environments with high ceilings, high air flows or vast open areas provide unique characteristics l Clean rooms l Warehouses l Aircraft hangers l Computer rooms l Atria
Environmentally Challenging Areas Aggressive environments with high levels of pollution or extreme temperature conditions can be protected reliably with acceptable maintenance levels l Cold Stores l Production areas l Paper mills l Underground tunnels l Mines
Aesthetics are Important & Replacement Impossible Interiors that must not be spoilt by unsightly conventional detectors - Hart XL can be installed unobtrusively l Cathedrals l Stately Homes l Museums l Art Galleries
Maintenance Access is Limited Hart XL can be located at an accessible location while the sampling pipework makes its way to the restricted area l Warehouses l Production machinery l Prisons l Restricted areas l EMC Controlled areas l Hospitals
