ASD-LS
ANALOG ADDRESSABLE LASER
SMOKE SENSOR
DESCRIPTION
The FCI Model ASD-LS low profile laser smoke sensor
adds another new dimension to analog addressable fire de-
tection. It incorporates laser smoke detection technology that
provides unsurpassed sensitivity and response to maximize
detection. This makes the sensor ultra-sensitive to smoke, as
much as 100 times more sensitive than conventional photo-
electric smoke detection technology.
An innovative laser diode and precision optics design com-
bine with an array of integral software tools to make the
quickest possible decision in the event of a genuine fire. The
sensor can swiftly sense smoldering fires, but yet can sense
the smallest particles of combustion, providing a faster re-
sponse to flaming fires.
The early warning capability of the ASD-LS is comparable
to that of aspiration technology, while unlike aspirating sys-
tems, the ASD-LS can pin-point the location of the fire.
The sensor is continually monitored to measure any change
in its sensitivity due to the environment (dirt, temperature,
transient smoke, humidity, etc.). Patented algorithms distin-
guish between particles of dust and smoke. The focused
beam of the laser light source minimizes reflection from ac-
cumulated dust in the optical chamber, effectively minimiz-
ing problems caused by dust build-up. The software
performs its own independent analyses of the sensor signal.
These analyses include dust spike rejection, drift compensa-
tion, smoothing, multi-sensor, pre-alarm decision and alarm
decision. In the event of spikes in the signal, the sensor will
check the output of adjacent sensors for any appreciable sig-
nal to determine if the spike is caused by a fast flaming fire.
The sensor is of plug-in construction and is directly inter-
changeable in the same base with the FCI ASD/ATD/Accli-
mate Series low-profile sensors. A wide variety of bases,
with sounder, relay, etc. is available. Remote LED annuncia-
tor capability is also available as an optional accessory.
The ASD-LS sensor is Listed for use inside ducts up to a
velocity of 4,000 FPM.
An optional isolator base, Model B224BI, is also available.
Installation of two of these isolator bases allows Style 7 oper-
ation for sensors located electrically between the bases.

MAINTENANCE
INSTALLATION
Place the sensor into the sensor base. Turn the sensor
clockwise until the sensor locks into place.
To use the tamper-proof feature, break the smaller tab
on the base as shown in the installation instructions. In-
stall the sensor. To remove the sensor from the base
when using the tamper-proof feature, insert the blade of
a small screwdriver into the hole on the side of the base
and push the plastic lever away from the detector head.
This will allow the sensor to be rotated counterclock-
wise for removal.
NOTE:
The decorative ring must be
removed in order to remove the head when using the
tamper-proof feature.
Refer to NFPA 72, Chapter 5-3 “Smoke Sensing Fire
Detectors” for spacing, location of sensors and other
guidelines.
Cleaning programs should be adapted to the individ-
ual environment in conformance with the National Fire
Alarm Code, NFPA 72. We recommend, at the least, an
annual cleaning of the unit. The sensor screen and cover
assembly can be removed, revealing the sensing cham-
ber. A vacuum cleaner can be used to remove dust from
the screen, cover and sensing chamber. For the com-
plete procedure, refer to the Installation and Mainte-
nance Instructions furnished with each sensor.
TESTING
Sensors may be tested locally in the following ways:
•
A. Place a test magnet against the sensor housing
per the instructions. The sensor should go into
alarm within 30 seconds.
•
B. Aerosol Generator - The Gemini Model 501
aerosol generator may be used to perform a
functional test. This test should be performed
immediately following the magnet test. Magnet
test initiates an approximately ten minute period
when the detector's signal processing software
routines are not active. Failure to first perform the
magnet test will introduce a time delay before the
detector alarms. Follow instructions in the
generator instruction manual.
