Increasing the suction power in an aspirating smoke detector (ASD) to shorten the transport time from a detected minimum signal level value without the output of an interruption signal
The present disclosure relates to aspirating smoke detectors (ASD). In an ASD, ambient air is aspirated and is fed to a fire detector unit for determining a signal level. For normal operation, the suction power is set to a nominal airflow value and this is increased from a minimum signal level value in order to shorten the transport time of aspirated smoke through the suction pipe to the fire detector unit. In some embodiments, an interruption signal provided for normal operation is output if the airflow exceeds an upper limit value for a minimum period. Independently thereof, the suction power is increased from the minimum signal level value only to the extent that the airflow does not exceed the upper limit value. Or, regardless thereof, the suction power is increased only for a timespan smaller than the minimum period in which the airflow exceeds the upper limit value.
Various embodiments of the teachings herein include a computer-implemented method for generating a building automation project of a building automation system.

Ambient air is aspirated by means of a suction unit (L) via a suction pipe (R) provided with suction openings (OF) and is fed to a fire detector unit (DET) for determining a signal level (DL). For normal operation, the suction power (P) is set to a nominal airflow value (NW) and this is increased from a minimum signal level value (MIN) in order to shorten the transport time (T) of aspirated smoke through the suction pipe to the fire detector unit. According to the invention, an interruption signal (U) provided for normal operation is output, in particular according to the standards EN 54- 20:2009-02 or UL268, 6th or 7th edition, if the airflow (P, th ) exceeds an upper limit value (P+, th+) for a minimum period (ZR). Independently thereof, the suction power is increased from the minimum signal level value only to the extent that the airflow does not exceed the upper limit value. Or, regardless thereof, the suction power is increased only for a timespan smaller than the minimum period in which the airflow exceeds the upper limit value.
