    VESDA-E VES-A10-P Product Guide Introduction The VESDA-E VES-A10-P is a scanning aspirating smoke detector (ASD) that provides very early warning of fire conditions by drawing air samples through an air sampling pipe network. The VESDA-E VES-A10-P can monitor and individually report on four sectors in the protected area.

    Threshold starts at one quarter of the lowest Alert threshold and self-adjusts to minimize unnecessary scans if they occur. Once this fast initial scan is completed the VES-A10-P continues to monitor all four sectors. The sector with the highest smoke during the initial scan is preferentially scanned so as to provide the fastest response. www.xtralis.com...

    If the VES-A10-P detector identifies a fault condition, the Fault LED on the front of the detector illuminates and an event containing details of the condition is written to the Xtralis VSC active event list and the detector's event log. The buzzer will beep once every 30 seconds if the Urgent fault beep and Minor fault beep checkboxes on the Relay configuration screen (section 5.5.12) are ticked.

    Xtralis VSC and the date, time, fault number and description of any faults can be viewed. The Xtralis VSC software also displays any current faults in the active event list. The list displays the date and time of the fault, the serial number of the device on which the fault has occurred, the zone number, fault number, and a description of the fault.
