The VESDA-E VEA series of aspirated detectors combine VESDA reliability and early warning smoke detection with pinpoint addressability and a variety of annunciation options. They use patented air sampling points and multi-channel microbore air-sampling with three alarm sensitivity settings for the sampling points. As a multi-channel addressable system, the VEA detector is able to divide a protected space into sampling locations, enabling the localization of potential sources of fire for faster incident response. The detectors are suitable for protection of areas where pinpoint location of fire events is essential, thus providing ideal fire detection solutions for healthcare, offices, education, retail, prisons and electrical cabinets. A wide range of features provide flexibility, field programmability, enhanced connectivity and reduced total cost of ownership.
Installation, Commissioning and Maintenance
The VEA detector features a robust IP40-rated enclosure and is equipped with a powerful pump that provides up to 100 m (328 ft) microbore tube length. It is fully supported by the Xtralis VSC software which facilitates ease of system commissioning and maintenance. During commissioning, the normalization process establishes the flow performance parameters. Local smoke test ports are used during servicing to verify that the system is fully operational. Field replaceable filter, smoke sensor module, pump and rotary valve components result in less down time and ease of maintenance.
Color LCD display
The VEA-040-A10 detector features a 3.5" colour LCD display which provides a range of status information including alarm and fault conditions as well as smoke level. Screens for each type of information are available using a simple navigation system.
VESDAnet™
VESDA detectors and devices communicate on VESDAnet which provides a robust bi-directional communication network allowing continued redundant operation even during single point wiring failures. VESDAnet enables primary reporting, centralized configuration, control, maintenance and monitoring.
Ethernet and WiFi connectivity
VESDA-E detectors offer Ethernet and WiFi connectivity as standard features. The detector can be added to a corporate network, allowing WiFi enabled tablet devices and laptops installed with Xtralis configuration software to connect wirelessly to the detector via the network.
