VESDA-E VEU Aspirating Smoke Detector


The VEU series of aspirating smoke detectors are the premium detector of the VESDA-E range. An Ultra-wide sensitivity range; 15 times greater than VESDA VLP, and provision for more sampling holes provide an increased coverage in high airflow applications by at least 40%. Considerably longer linear pipe runs and extended branched pipe network configurations cater perfectly to applications with higher ceilings providing an increased coverage by up to 80% whilst allowing convenient detector mounting for ease of service and maintenance. A range of revolutionary new features provide unsurpassed detection performance, flexibility, field programmability, connectivity and reduced total cost of ownership.
  • Flair detection technology delivers reliable very early warning in a wide range of environments with minimal nuisance alarms
  • Multi stage filtration and optical protection with clean air barriers ensures lifetime detection performance
  • Four alarm levels and an ultra wide sensitivity range deliver optimum protection for the widest range of applications
  • Intuitive LCD icon display provides instant status information for immediate response
  • Flow fault thresholds per port accommodate varying airflow conditions
  • Smart on-board filter retains dust count and remaining filter life for predictable maintenance
  • Extensive event log (20,000 events) for event analysis and system diagnostics
  • AutoLearn™ smoke and flow for reliable and rapid commissioning
  • Referencing to accommodate external environmental conditions to minimise nuisance alarms
  • Backward compatible with VLP and VESDAnet
  • Remote monitoring with iVESDA for system review and proactive maintenance
  • Ethernet for connectivity with Xtralis software for configuration, secondary monitoring and maintenance
  • Industry first. Aspirating detector secondary monitoring and maintenance via WiFi
  • USB for PC configuration, and firmware upgrade using a memory stick
  • Two programmable GPIs (1 monitored) for flexible remote control
  • Field replaceable sub-assemblies enable faster service and maximum uptime
