XTRALIS OSID Open Area Smoke Detection Detector

OSID is an innovative open area smoke detection system that provides users with much more benefits than standard linear beam type smoke detectors. OSID, which is formed by the initials of Open-area Smoke Imaging Detection, offers three-dimensional detection and very stable performance that standard beam type smoke detectors cannot provide with the CMOS imaging sensor used in cameras. Linear smoke detection with two different beams of IR and UV wavelengths distinguishes smoke particles from dust particles and larger masses, practically eliminating false alarms. Emitter can be connected to the OSID imaging device (Imager) from 7 different points, thus providing 3-dimensional protection from different angles in large areas.

OSID smoke detector, unlike beam type smoke detectors, uses both IR + UV double wavelengths and identifies smoke with volumetric imaging method over CMOS sensor with video imaging technology. However, beam type smoke detectors detect smoke by observing only at the IR light reduction in the form of a line. There is a massive difference in performance and technology between these two technologies. OSID detectors are a patented and unique detector developed by Xtralis.

Unique Detection Technology

OSID detectors detect smoke by integrating information from ir and uv sensors with a video imaging method and a fire algorithm. Beam type smoke detectors only look at the attenuation of an IR beam and decide with straight logic without any analysis capability. As a result, OSID detectors outperform beam-type smoke detectors in terms of early and reliable detection.

While the IR wavelength can only detect large particles, the UV wavelength can detect both small and large particles, and a decision is taken in the imaging sensor (Imager) within the context of an algorithm. In this way, early and accurate detection is provided.

Prevention of False Alarms Caused by Dust

Since OSID detectors use double wavelengths, they certainly do not give false alarms from dust particles, but beam type smoke detectors give false alarms by reducing the light of dust particles.

A smoke detector with a standard beam type can only detect smoke with an IR beam type. Since the IR beam cannot differentiate between dust and smoke, it often gives false alarms in dusty environments. OSID produces beams of two different wavelengths, IR and UV. Since particles of different sizes can be detected by UV and IR rays, the dust in the environment is separated from the smoke and a more precise detection is possible. IR and UV rays provide immunity against false alarms by controlling each other in case of alarm.

  • If the amount of UV rays reaching the receiver decreases more than IR, there is a small particle (possibly smoke) in the environment. An alarm occurs.
  • If the amount of both UV light and IR beam reaching the receiver is reduced, there is a large particle (possibly dust) in the environment. An error occurs.
  • If both UV and IR beams do not reach the receiver, an error occurs. (In case of entrance of objects such as crane or transmitter failure)
  • The maximum application ceiling height allowed by EN 54-14 is 25 m. (Half quota 2nd detector)

Transmission Without Interruptions Between the Transmitter and the Receiver

The Imager and Emitter do not need to be in the same alignment since OSID detectors use volumetric imaging. A funnel-shaped volume detection is made according to the model, and position changes in the Imager - Emitter parts that will remain in this funnel do not cause any malfunction. In conventional beam type smoke detectors, a line-shaped IR light is sent to the reflector and recovers its reflection. Even minor changes in alignment cause the system to stop collecting light and go into failure mode. As a result, OSID detectors are more stable and smooth than regular beam detectors when it comes to factors like vibration and mounting position fluctuations.

Flexibility in Protection Areas

In the environment where it is used, OSID provides volumetric protection.. Linear beam type smoke detectors detect with linear beam as can be understood from their names. Receiver and transmitter units must be placed at the same height in a linear line. A single receiver and transmitter unit can control a single 2-dimensional linear field. At different points, 7 Emitter can be connected to the OSID special display device. The emitter devices' heights may be modified to be higher or lower than the imaging unit, depending on the desired heights. As a consequence, while OSID offers 3-dimensional protection, it also covers 50% more area than a traditional beam type smoke detector.

More Efficient Smoke Detection for Large Areas

Beam type smoke detectors usually have two detection distances of 50 meters and 100 meters. Smoke detectors with multiple beams are needed in larger areas and at distances greater than 100 meters. Also very long distances of 150 meters can be covered with a single OSID. This allows users to use a single device to protect a larger area.

Low Commissioning and Installation Costs, Fast and Reliable Installation

The cost of commissioning and wiring is one of the drawbacks of beam style smoke detectors. Detectors with receiver and transmitter units, especially beam detectors, have high costs in terms of both commissioning time and cabling costs. Beam detectors take much longer to commission because they need to be calibrated very precisely. Thanks to the adjustment apparatus with OSID laser pointer, it can be adjusted and fixed easily and quickly. The OSID completes the remaining operations in 7 minutes and can be managed by the user through its own special software. OSID Emitter devices are also available with long-life battery-powered models to reduce cabling costs. The installation benefit of reflective beam detectors is provided by the stability of end-to-end detection with these battery-powered Emitter devices, which operate with the same Lithium battery for more than 5 years and alert the consumer when it is weakened.

OSID Diagnostic Software

OSID Diagnostic is a one-of-a-kind interface program that provides online and offline diagnostic data about the system and environment.

The program runs under Windows on a standard laptop. Displays real-time live visualization of normalized UV and IR values (0-100% dimming), UV and IR gray levels, X-Y position of Emitters 1-7 in the viewer, reference levels and temperature values when connected to the imager in the field.

The tools also allow live and offline evaluation of the viewer's log files, as well as time and date marked reconfiguration of any major changes in the framework. For quick analysis and examination, log files can also be exported to an Excel file.
