1. What can the Aerospace Industry Contribute to Very Early Fire Detection? Presented by: Stephen Lederer Marketing Manager, Honeywell, Inc.

2. Aspirating Smoke Detection (ASD) An “active” system comprised of a detector, air intake fan and sampling tubes that constantly draws air into the detector for early warning smoke detection. Standard smoke detectors are “passive” devices that activate when smoke reaches and enters the detector.

3. Definition of ASD An aspirating smoke detector draws air into its sensor to detect smoke. These devices typically include: 1.Aspirator or Fan 2.Piping and Sampling Points (Active vs. Passive) 3.Filter 4.Sensing Chamber 5.High Sensitivity Sensor

4. Why is ASD Used? Reliable Detection for Very Early Warning Before damage can occur Up to 60 minutes before a fire Flexible Placement & Maintenance External Mounting Easy access for service/maintenance Can’t return to the space due to security reasons Applications Not Suitable for Standard Smoke Detection Extreme environmental conditions High rates of air changes in space Very large area of coverage

5. The Benefits of ASD 1.Earliest detection without false alarms 2.Effective communication/response strategy 3.Reduced total cost of ownership 4.100% business uptime, 100% business confidence 5.Protection across a wider range of applications

6. Applications & Implications High Level False Alarm Applications Hospitals Schools Airports Harsh Environments Cold Storage Heavy industrial Remote Applications Wind turbines Base stations Mobile data centres Switchgear housings Pumping stations

7. The Challenge: False Alarm Immunity with Stability at High Sensitivity When detection as precise as 0.00046 %/ft obscuration is required – false alarms due to non-smoke particulate is a concern Many manufacturers use devices with filters within the pipe network throughout the protected space to help protect the device from this Honeywell ACS worked with Aerospace division on patented technology to use within their aspirating smoke detector Automation and Control Solutions Aerospace

8. The Challenge: False Alarm Immunity with Stability at High Sensitivity Solution: Patented Particulate Wing Filter – A “particle separator” to filter out large particles

9. Particle Separator – How is it used in ASD? Multi-Stage filtering and intelligence separates and distinguishes nuisance particulate from smoke. Patented particle separator Field-replaceable filter Electronic nuisance rejection through Dual Source optical analysis

10. Particle Separator – How is it used in ASD? Patented Particle Separator – Removes larger particles not associated with elements of combustion Large particles are ejected through the device exhaust port. Reduces the burden on the replaceable filter; ultimately reducing the service and maintenance costs of the system

11. Particle Separator – How is it used in ASD? Goes beyond simply looking at particle size and physical filtering to make an alarm determination Size alone does not accurately delineate whether a particle is an element of combustion (smoke) or other particles such as dust

12. Particle Separator - How is it used in ASD? Filtering an aspiration air sample above 0.5 microns particle size range can potentially reduce the protection capabilities against many common sources of combustion.

13. Particle Separator - How is it used in ASD? Many dust based particles which are commonly found in any building which can be smaller than 0.5 microns. For example, one of the most common - typical atmospheric dust can range from 0.001 to 30 microns.

14. 30 Micron Filter – Field Replaceable Further eliminates greater than 30 micron particles not associated with elements of combustion Filter life is estimated to be the equivalent of 5+yrs in a warehouse setting, 10+yrs in a data center or 20+ years in a clean room environment Much longer life due to Particle Separator Trouble signal at the device alerts you to when the filter needs to be replaced

15. Smoke Detection Chamber – Particulate Analysis (Dual Optics) Multi-angle and multi- wavelength optics Blue LED - widest ranges of fire types Infra red -LED IR - detects fine dust particles Multiple photodiode detectors pick up forward and backward scattering

16. Smoke Detection Chamber Algorithm Deployment – samples detected by both sources not only based on size but color and signature Maximum Smoke Particle Sensitivity = 0.0015% Obs/m to 20.5% Obs/m “Open” design with few critical surfaces for dust to accumulate – less chance for false alarms Chamber flow is monitored to maximize filter life

17. Combining Multi-Stage Filtration & Dual Optics Delivering highly accurate Very Early Stage Detection Minimising false alarms Reducing maintenance requirements First Stage Filter Second Stage Filter Dual Light Detection Chamber

18. INTEGRATION – SIMPLICITY IS KEY

20. Simple Connectivity is Key Modbus Communications Using TCP/IP Use existing building management system to monitor device health and history Addressable Models Communicate Directly Over the Addressable Loop Have a unique type ID Reset, isolate, disable the ASD from the panel Monitor for faults and trouble Modbus E-mail/Web Mobile Device BMS SLC Fire Alarm PanelASD TCP/IP

21. Integrated Ethernet IP Connectivity Integral Ethernet capabilities enable remote configuring options using software Internal Web Server allows remote monitoring from anywhere in the world via web browser Providing the right information to the right people

22. In Summary Due to the involvement of Honeywell’s Aerospace division, Aspirating Smoke Detectors (ASD) can now be used to protect difficult environments that previously would be considered unsuitable for ASD protection Discriminating air samples by size tell only part of the story New technologies allow ASD’s to discriminate air samples based on size, color and signature for high sensitivity with stability and accuracy Designers and end users want Aspirating Smoke Detectors to be easily integrated with existing systems Several ways to achieve this with built in integration options – ModBus, Ethernet, SLC
