Abstract

Der Rauchmelder enthält eine optische Brücke (6) mit einer Lichtquelle (10), einer Mess- und einer Referenzstrecke (15 bzw. 16) und einem Mess- und einem Referenzempfänger (13 bzw. 14). Die optische Brücke (6) enthält neben der Lichtquelle (10) und den Empfängern (13, 14) als einzige optische Elemente zwei im Strahlengang nach der Lichtquele (10) angeordnete Lochblenden (L, L').The smoke detector contains an optical bridge (6) with a light source (10), a measuring and a reference path (15 or 16) and a measuring and a reference receiver (13 or 14). The optical bridge (6) contains the light source (10) and the receivers (13, 14) the only optical elements are two arranged in the beam path after the light source (10) Pinholes (L, L ').

Die Lichtquelle (10) ist in einer ein Luftreservoir enthaltenden Kammer (9) angeordnet, deren Oberfläche wesentlich grösser ist als diejenige der Lichtquelle (10). Die Temperaturdriftkurve wird durch Heizen der Lichtquelle (1) und Bestimmung des Meldersignals bei verschiedenen Temperaturen ermittelt.

Figure 00000001
The light source (10) is arranged in a chamber (9) containing an air reservoir, the surface of which is considerably larger than that of the light source (10). The temperature drift curve is determined by heating the light source (1) and determining the detector signal at different temperatures.
