Conventional 600 Series Detectors
The M600 series are a range of low profile
conventional fire detectors. These unobtrusively
styled detectors have a number of unique design
features to improve their operation, installation
and ease of servicing.
Through innovative design the M600 series
detectors have reduced the installation and
servicing time to a minimum, needing only one
visit to complete the installation and having a Park
position for the detector to ease the servicing.
The M600 series includes the unique Carbon
Monoxide CO fire detector, which provides a
general purpose fire detector with unprecedented
early detection capability and excellent false
alarm immunity. The CO fire detectors are the first
choice for sleeping risks.
Also included within the range is the intelligent
high performance optical smoke (H.P.O.) detector.
The use of the patented optical sensing chamber,
together with refined signal processing, has
enabled the introduction of a smoke detector
suitable for fast, reliable smoke detection of both
slow and fast developing fires. The H.P.O. can be
seen as a truly universal smoke detector, suitable
for most applications.

The M600 low Profile detectors can be custom
made in several colours, please contact the
Walthamstow office for details
These detectors react to the whole
range of fire products from slow
smouldering fires, producing
visible particles to open flaming
fires producing large numbers of
very hot smaller sized aerosols. It
combines optical and heat detector technology to
detect clear burning fire products which hitherto
could only be easily detected by ion-chamber
detectors.
For normal ambient conditions, the high
performance optical detector behaves as a
normal optical detector. Only when a rapid rise in
temperature is detected does the sensitivity of the
detector increase and the presence of smoke will
confirm a fire condition. The HPO will not operate
on a rate of rise of temperature alone.

The CO fire detector is a unique
general purpose fire detector
which provides very early warning
of slow smouldering fires. Ideal for
sleeping risks the CO fire detector
is also well suited to many
applications where heat detection is insufficient
but smoke detection causes false alarms.
As CO travels more freely than smoke the
positions of CO fire detectors is more flexible.
This feature is particularly useful in large complex
structures such as atria and warehouses, where
positioning of smoke detectors is difficult. The
MU601 is LPCB Approved.

Carbon Monoxide Fire
These detectors are capable of
detecting the visible smoke
produced by materials which
smoulder or burn slowly, i.e. soft
furnishings, plastic foam etc;. or
'smoke' produced by overheated
but unburnt PVC. These detectors are particularly
suitable for general applications and areas where
cable overheating may occur e.g. electrical
services areas. The novel design of the
asymmetrical sampling chamber and signal
processing techniques stop unwanted alarms
caused by very small insects. i.e. thrips. Smoke
entering the sampling chamber scatters the infra-
red light pulses onto a photodiode These pulses
are converted to an electrical signal which is
compared against a preset alarm level.
