    The ALK-V photoelectric smoke sensor from Hochiki America detects optically dense smoke from smoldering fires. It has a fast response to both flaming and smoldering fires while avoiding false alarms. The sensor uses an LED and photodiode arrangement to detect smoke particles scattering light. When smoke density exceeds a threshold, an interrupt is transmitted to the fire alarm control panel. The sensor can be programmed and automatically compensates for contamination.

    ALK-V PHOTOELECTRIC SMOKE SENSOR

    APPLICATION
    The HOCHIKI America ALK-V Photoelectric Smoke Sensor is particularly suited to detecting optically dense smoke typical of fires involving materials such as soft furnishings, plastic, foam or other similar materials which tend to smolder and produce large visible smoke particles. Hochiki's unique design allows fast response to flaming fires as well as smoldering fires while eliminating false alarms.

    OPERATION
    The detection chamber consists of a light emitting diode (LED) and photodiode arrangement. The chamber is designed such that light emitted by the LED cannot normally reach the photo diode. In the event of fire, particles of smoke enter the chamber and scatter the light. As the smoke level increases, the scattering effect increases, causing more light to hit the photodiode. The chamber contains a unique baffle design which allows smoke to enter the chamber while preventing external light from affecting the photodiode. The photodiode input level is sampled to sense smoke density. When the smoke density exceeds a preset threshold the sensor transmits an interrupt to the fire control panel indicating a fire condition. The fire alarm control panel can adjust the sensor threshold to compensate for contamination. Up to 127 devices are permitted on each loop. A sensor address can be set by a hand held programming unit. The sensor mounts to an electronics free base and incorporates a locking mechanism for secure installation. The base provides mounting slots, terminals for field wiring and a third contact for a remote indicator/LED. The sensor incorporates dual LED's for easy viewing of sensor status.

    ENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS, continued


    The base shall permit direct interchange with the HOCHIKI America AIE-EA ionization type smoke sensor, ALG-V Photoelectric type smoke sensor, and the ATG-EA heat sensor. The sensitivity of the sensor shall be capable of being measured by the control panel. The vandal-resistant, security locking feature shall be used in those areas as indicated on the drawing. The locking feature shall be optional and can be implemented when required.

    BASES
    The HOCHIKI America except for ASB both YBN-NSA-4 and the HSB-NSA-6 mounting bases are electronics free and are a simple rugged design with screw terminals for wiring connections. A common mounting base allows sensor interchange and maintains loop continuity when sensors are removed. A simple anti-tamper head locking system is provided which is enabled by removing a small plastic tab on the back of the sensor. Once locked, the head can be removed using a small diameter screw driver.
