Aspirating Smoke Detector
2. Option: reducing the number of air sampling openings
Reduced sensitivity at the air sampling openings can be offset by reducing the number of air
sampling openings. A distinction must be made regarding whether the cross-section of an
acceleration opening is smaller or the same as:

Table 4.5: Reducing the number of air sampling openings (acceleration opening corresponds to two air sampling openings)
Example:
A class B double U-pipe system with 24 air sampling openings is planned. According to EN
54‑20 and ISO 7240-20, 24 openings are permitted in class B at a sensitivity of 0.25% LT/m. In
order to increase the transport time, an acceleration opening twice the size as the last air
sampling opening is to be used. According to 2. Option: reducing the number of air sampling
openings, page 61, 16 air sampling openings are permitted in this case at a sensitivity of
0.25% LT/m.
It may be necessary to increase the system's transport time in order to meet individual
requirements. For this purpose, acceleration apertures can be planned at the end of the pipe
branch, which will increase the transport rate.
For the design of pipe systems with acceleration apertures, please refer to the following table
for aspiration holes and particular pipe configuration. Furthermore compliance is required
with special design tables for the design of smoke aspiration systems with acceleration
apertures
