Whilst air sampling systems can be used as stand-alone items to monitor atmospheric quality, they are most commonly used in association with gaseous and water mist fire protection systems.
These systems are highly sensitive, in many cases up to more than 200 times more sensitive than a standard smoke detector. They are highly valuable in helping to protect expensive equipment and data as well as people by enabling early detection of a problem.
Early awareness can often prevent the need for over escalated disruption, saving businesses significant time and money. For example it can prevent the need to raise a general alarm for a whole building, or unnecessary release of fire suppressing systems, or business disruption such as the shutdown of air conditioning within a server room (which can lead to unnecessary overheating and business disruption).
