Consilium Salwico EVC-PY-IS Intrinsically Safe Optical Smoke Detector N1144

The Consilium Salwico EVC-PY-IS N1144 is an intrinsically safe optical smoke detector. The EVC-PY-IS is a conventional smoke detector, equipped with an optical sensor with improved sensitivity to black smoke.

Consilium Salwico EVC-PY-IS Intrinsically Safe Smoke Detector (N1144)

The Consilium Salwico EVC-PY-IS (N1144) provides reliable smoke detection in hazardous areas where explosive atmospheres may be present. Designed as an intrinsically safe conventional smoke detector, it enables engineers to protect high-risk environments while maintaining compliance with hazardous area safety requirements.

Furthermore, the EVC-PY-IS uses an advanced optical sensing chamber with enhanced sensitivity to black smoke, allowing it to detect developing fires quickly and accurately. As a result, it provides early warning of fire conditions in applications where rapid response is essential.

The detector connects to the fire alarm system through an intrinsically safe interface, ensuring safe operation in hazardous environments. In addition, its robust design makes it suitable for industrial, offshore, marine, and petrochemical installations where conventional detectors cannot be used.

To maintain the integrity of the intrinsically safe design, operators must not clean the detector with solvents or generate electrostatic charges by rubbing the surface.
