1.0 Scope of document
This document details the user information for the Protec ProPointPlus Aspirating Smoke Detector with
specific attention to the basic system operations of the product. The Protec ProPointPlus Aspirating Smoke
Detector has been designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom and complies fully with current
standard dictating aspirating smoke detector design practice (EN54 parts 20).
2.0 User Responsibilities
The registered owner of the fire alarm system has specific responsibilities regarding the installation, testing
and maintenance of the fire alarm system.
BS5839 Pt 1: 2013 Section 7 states that the user of the fire alarm system must appoint a single named
person to supervise all matters regarding the fire alarm system.
Summarised below are the responsibilities expected of the named person,
It is strongly advised that a full copy of BS5839 Pt 1: 2013 is obtained and
thoroughly read and understood.
3.0 Introduction
Aspirating detection is now a recognised solution for many different fire detection applications. ProPointPlus
provides up to four separate detectors within a common aspirator enclosure and therefore provides four
individually identifiable areas of detection per aspirator.
Each of the four plug in Scatter Camber Detectors (SCD’s) detector use independent and integrated alarm
decision making. Complex algorithms are used to extend the range of particle detection, confirm genuine
alarms and reduce unwanted alarms.
Installation, configuration and commissioning of the ProPointPlus detectors is very simple and installer
friendly. Configuration to either Class A, Class B or Class C sensitivity options is achieved through a multi-
function OLED display without the need for a PC connection.
The features of the ProPointPlus are:
High performance optical detection with
optional enhanced CO detection.
1 to 4 individual detectors.
Protec 6000 series digital addressable
protocol.
