Description

Edwards KI-PCD detector brings advanced multisensor technology to a practical design. That increases efficiency, saves installation time, cuts costs, and extends life safety and property protection capabilities. Continuous self-diagnostics ensure reliability. Environmental compensation helps reduce maintenance costs.

Edwards KI-PCD provides a combination of optical detection for the early detection of smoke. The added element of carbon monoxide sensing. The detector pulls double duty and monitors the environment for signs of fire its invisible yet deadly companion: carbon monoxide.

Like all KI Series detectors; the KI-PCD gathers analog information from its sensing elements. And converts this data into digital signals. To make an alarm decision; the detector’s on-board microprocessor measures and analyzes the smoke sensor. Readings and compares this information to historical data. Digital filters remove signal patterns that are not typical of fires, thus virtually eliminating unwanted alarms. The detector analyzes the smoke sensor independently from the CO sensor. To determine whether to initiate a fire alarm, a life safety CO alarm, or both.
