Definitions

• the present invention relates to a fire detection device, in particular, a fire detection computer having a built-in computer for a fire mouth, and a fire detection level changes in response to a change in environmental conditions at an installation site, and a fire is always detected with an appropriate fire detection sensitivity.
• the environmental conditions of the place where the fire detector is installed vary depending on time of day, day of the week or season. Considering this in a room in an office, when people enter and leave during the day and dust floats in the room, there is no person at night, so there is no dust inside the room. It is hardly floating, and even during the same day, the amount of floating-dust is naturally higher in times of high traffic such as going to work, leaving the office, and lunch than at other times.
• the air conditioner operates during the daytime and the room temperature is around ° C, but at night the air conditioner is stopped and the room temperature rises to around 30 ° C.
• the room temperature is around 0 ° C due to the operation of the heating system in the daytime, but it drops to a low level at night due to the shutdown of the heating system. 7 to such a room. If a constant-temperature fire detector operating at C is installed, the room temperature should rise and fall around 0 during the summer nights before the fire detector operates, while ⁇ during the winter-season. Requires a rise of around 0 ° C.
• conventional fire detectors with fixed fire detection sensitivity have a relative fire detection sensitivity that varies from time to time due to environmental conditions that change depending on the time zone, day of the week, and season of the installation location. It changes and it is not always possible to detect fires with a certain sensitivity, which may result in false alarms, late reports or unreported reports. The same applies to fire detectors that capture light, gas, and the like generated during a fire other than smoke and heat. Also, some conventional fire detectors have a measurement level of ⁇ to J and are used for switching. In this case, attach a timer device to the receiver, for example, during the daytime.
