Functional principle

The smoke detector recognises fire early on due to the smoke development.
It operates on the scattered-light principle. Light transmitters and receivers
are positioned in the measuring chamber so that the emitted light signal of
the transmitter cannot impact the receiver (photo cell) directly. If smoke
enters the smoke chamber, the light signal is scattered by the floating
particles contained in the smoke. The scattered light rays impact the photo
cell where they are converted into electrical signals which trigger the alarm.
The function of the smoke evaluation is checked constantly. Any faults are
indicated by a fault signal (signal sound and LED).
