The Optica duct smoke detector is specifically designed to address unique HVAC system smoke detection challenges while reducing nuisance alarms. It is built to address the moisture and dust challenges found in the HVAC environment and provide reliable detection. Specifically designed for the challenging HVAC environment, it has a free-flowing chamber, dual-wall construction and an anti-fog coating across the complete sensing area to enable greater performance, durability and reduce nuisance alarms. Optica uses dual wavelengths, multiple angles and detection algorithms to differentiate between nuisance particles, such as dust or steam, and serious threats. The product ensures backward compatibility and easy upgrades by utilizing the same entry and exit pipe locations as the legacy SuperDuct detectors.
