Summary
Principle of an aspirating smoke detection system: a fan draws air through sampling holes in a pipe network to a central detector. Based on Iqbal and Salley (2004), p. F-3, and National Research Council of Canada et al. (2005), p. 2.7-6.
Original vector illustration for Aspirating smoke detection, level 2 Intermediate.
- Source basis: Iqbal and Salley (2004), p. F-3 (piping network, aspiration fan, sampling ports, air analysed at detector); National Research Council of Canada et al. (2005), p. 2.7-6 (central light scattering detector, dilution and travel delay); McGrattan et al. (2026), p. 109 (transport time per sampling point)
- Alt text: Room section with a sampling pipe under the ceiling; a fan in a wall unit draws air through the holes to a light scattering detector.
