This type of fire alarm system is used to detect flaming fires. It is extremely sensitive to small particles of smoke from “flaming” fires such as chip pans. It will detect this type of fire at an early stage before the smoke gets too thick for you to escape.
This type of fire alarm is able to expose smouldering fires. A photoelectric smoke alarm consists of a light emitting diode and a light sensitive sensor located in a sensing chamber. The presence of suspended smoke particles in the chamber scatters the light beam. This scattered light is then detected by the light sensitive sensor which sets off the fire alarm.
Dual-Sensor Smoke Detectors combine ionization and photoelectric technology to detect both flaming and smoldering fires. This offers you the best protection and saves you having to install two separate smoke detectors. But you may still need to install carbon monoxide detectors, if appropriate for your home.
