Properties

Features
● Integrated line separator: The section of the detector line affected by the short-circuit is
located by the fire control panel and isolated between two FDnet/C-NET devices.
● The detector and base housing is made from hard-wearing glass-fiber-reinforced plastic.
● Protected electronics
● Built-in alarm indicator
● Self test function
● Detector heating unit in case of danger of moisture condensation
● 3 sensitivity levels and event-driven detection behavior
● Addressed signal processing:
– Transmission of 4 danger levels to the control panel: Enables activation of
differentiated measures and an early warning in the case of incorrect applications
– 4 functional states: As well as the normal state, the detector transmits a notice, an
impairment, or a fault (depending on the significance of the cause of the problem).
● Collective signal processing:
– The detector transmits alarm states and fault states to the control panel.

Eco-friendly
● Environmentally friendly processing
● Reusable materials
● Electronic parts and synthetic materials can be easily separated

Use
● Buildings with historically valuable ceilings
● Atriums, detection on multiple levels
● Large rooms and high halls
● Churches
● Long corridors, cable and energy ducts with a room height of more than 3 m
● Airplane hangars with stable building construction, in which flame detectors alone do not
suffice
● Saw-tooth roofs, where point detectors must be suspended lower

Intended use
The linear smoke detector FDL241-9 is only permitted for use on an FDnet/C-NET detector
line or a collective detector line in one of the following fire detection systems:
● FS20
● FS720
● FC360

Functions
The linear smoke detector smoke detector consists of a transmitter and a receiver and works
according to the principle of light attenuation by smoke.
The transmitter transmits to the reflector a highly focused infrared ray. If no smoke is
present, a large part of the infrared ray reaches the reflector and is returned to the receiver.
The incoming light generates an electric signal on the receiver's photo diode.
Smoke entering the measuring section weakens the infrared ray. If the signal reaches
specific measured values, the detector transmits the corresponding danger level to the
control panel.
● Distance measurement to detect foreign bodies
● The alarm state is signaled locally with the built-in alarm indicator.

Environmental influences
● Digital signal compensation:
– Slow changes to the received infrared signal as a consequence of dusty lenses or
other environmental influences are automatically compensated by the detector.
● Multiple-coincidence circuit:
– Suppresses electrical and optical fault signals. In the case of an extremely strong
incidence of extraneous light, the extraneous light filter DLF1191-AC is used in
addition.
● Prism-shaped reflectors:
– Incident rays of light are reflected in parallel.
– The detector is not affected by mounting surface vibration phenomena.

Notes

Mounting

Mounting options
● Easy mounting of the housing on stable surfaces. Wood and steel girder constructions
are usually unsuited, as temperature and humidity fluctuations, wind or snow pressure
can affect them.
● 6 openings for M20 metal cable gland
● External alarm indicator can be connected
● Between the detector and the reflector there must be an uninterrupted and clear line of
sight. Obfuscation of sight caused by operational generation of dust, vapor or smoke
may decisively impair the system. The monitoring ray must not be interrupted by moving
objects, e.g., overhead cranes, ladders, transportable objects, cobwebs, etc.
● The adjustment kit FDLU291 provides an effective means of aligning the lens with the
reflector single-handedly.
● Corresponding reflectors are available for different distances.

Disposal

The device is considered an electronic device for disposal in accordance

with the European Guidelines and may not be disposed of as domestic
garbage.
● Dispose of the device through channels provided for this purpose.
● Comply with all local and currently applicable laws and regulations.
