Established in 2002, Bisson are a specialist manufacturer and supplier of high-quality pipe and fittings products that are compatible for use in aspirating smoke detector systems.
By sampling air through our precision-engineered pipes, buildings can achieve enhanced early fire detection and improved safety, ensuring every room and area is protected from potential fire risks.
Because aspirating smoke detectors work differently from traditional smoke detectors, we’ve put together a quick overview of how these advanced systems operate – and why Bisson has become the trusted global name behind these advanced fire safety systems.
So, let’s explore the benefits of aspirating smoke detectors and how they protect the people, places and things that matter.
Air sampling pipes for aspirating smoke detectors
Aspirating smoke detectors are life saving devices that can detect emerging fire before heat begins and smoke is visible to the human eye.
Given the earlier warning signs that these systems can deliver compared to standard smoke detectors, aspirating smoke detection has become a chosen safety solution for industrial, manufacturing, commercial and retail environments alike.
The detectors work by using aspiration to draw in air samples from a protected area. Once samples are collected, the air is analysed in a receiver to detect any early signs of smoke.
To collect air samples for smoke detection, specialist pipes need to be installed throughout a building, ensuring every room and area is covered and an adequate air sample is collected and sent back to the receiver.
These pipes must be precision-engineered and fully compliant with safety regulations to guarantee system performance and reliability.
And, that’s where we come in!
