Furthermore, an optical fiber made of glass is more expensive than a resin optical fiber, and there is a problem in terms of cost.
- a resin sealing material is provided in the part where the optical fiber penetrates the explosion-proof container. Need to be filled. Since the sealing material deteriorates with the passage of time, the hermeticity of the explosion-proof container decreases with the deterioration of the sealing material.

Therefore, there is a need to obtain a photoelectric smoke detector that can prevent an explosion due to deterioration of a sealing material.

- the sizes of the first and second gaps and the lengths of the first and second gaps each comply with an explosion-proof standard.
- the flame generated by the explosion disappears in the process of passing through the first support portion and the second support portion. For this reason, it can avoid that the flame accompanying an explosion leaks into an explosion-proof designated area, or it can avoid igniting the combustible or explosive gas in an explosion-proof designated area, and sufficient explosion-proof performance can be acquired.
