  • the invention relates to an optical hazard detector with a working according to the scattered light principle detection unit and with an associated electronic evaluation unit.
  • the detection unit has at least one light source for irradiating particles to be detected and at least one optical receiver for detecting the light scattered by the particles.
  • the light emitted by the at least one light source lies at least in a first wavelength range and in a second wavelength range.
  • the at least one optical receiver is designed to be sensitive to the first and / or second wavelength range as well as to the conversion of the received scattered light into a first and a second scattered light signal.
  • the evaluation unit has first means for normalizing the two scattered light signals in such a way that their amplitude course for larger particles such as dust and steam approximately coincide. It is also set up to evaluate the two standardized scattered light signals for fire parameters.
  • particles with a size of more than 1 .mu.m are mainly dust, while particles with a size of less than 1 .mu.m are mainly smoke.
  • Such a method or such a danger detector is from the international publication WO 2008/064396 A1 known.
  • the publication in order to increase the sensitivity for the detection of smoke particles, it is proposed to evaluate only the second scattered light signal with blue light wavelength if the amplitude ratio corresponds to a particle size of less than 1 ⁇ m. If, on the other hand, the amplitude ratio corresponds to a particle size of more than 1 ⁇ m, then the difference is formed from the second scattered light signal with blue light wavelength and the first scattered light with infrared light wavelength.

Too high a dust density can pose a high security risk, e.g. Accelerate the spread of a fire or favor deflagrations or explosions.

  • the polar angle values for the second case correspond to polar angle values that result from 90 ° or ⁇ / 2 minus the first polar angle values.

It can also come from two separate light sources, in particular from a blue light emitting diode and from an infrared light emitting diode.
