To provide a sounder that outputs alarm sound to notify an abnormality in a monitored region. The sounder includes: a sound source that outputs alarm sound when a pulse signal is applied to the sound source; a pulse signal application unit that applies the pulse signal to the sound source; a storage unit that stores plural combinations of a frequency and a pulse width that the pulse signal can take; and a pulse signal control unit that controls the pulse signal application unit so that the pulse signal corresponding to the combination of the frequency and the pulse width stored in the storage unit is applied to the sound source.

Sounder

To provide a sounder that outputs a predetermined alarm to notify an abnormality in a monitored region, and includes an output device-side connection terminal on a surface facing a predetermined installation surface, to structurally and electrically connect the sounder to a base-side connection terminal provided on a predetermined fitting base fixed to the installation surface. One of the base-side connection terminal and the output device-side connection terminal is configured using plural plates disposed in approximately parallel on the installation surface, and the other is configured using a plate sandwiched by the plural plates.

Fire alarm system

In a sampling tube-type smoke detector equipped with a smoke detection device detects smoke particles contained in the air suctioned from a monitored area through a sampling tube by an aspirator positioned in the downstream. The smoke detection device the sampling tube forms a lead-in tube and suctions air through the sampling tube in substantially a straight line. The lead-in tube is formed with a smoke sensor unit to detect smoke particles contained in the air. The aspirator comprises a rotating part which forms an actuator mechanism that discharges the air. The central axis of the lead-in tube and the rotational axis of the actuator mechanism of the aspirator are substantially on the same axis. The sampling tube-type smoke detector is provided to reduce pressure loss in the airflow traveling from the smoke detection device to the aspirator and to supply a low cost, compact smoke detection device driven by a small-sized fan.

Sampling tube-type smoke detector

Disclosed herein is a fire alarm system for connecting a plurality of fire sensors to sensor lines, and giving an alarm in response to fire information output from the fire sensor in a line unit. The fire alarm system includes a current modulation section and an address specification section. The current modulation section is used for maintaining a current flowing in the sensor line at a predetermined value for a predetermined time at the time of a fire, and modulating the current in accordance with the inherent address information of the fire sensor. The address specification section is used for sensing fire information by judging whether or not the current has been maintained at the predetermined value for the predetermined time, and also for specifying the inherent address of the fire sensor that issued the fire information, from the modulated state of the current.

Fire alarm system, fire sensor, fire receiver, and repeater

A smoke detector is provided with a light emission section holder having a light-emission element and a light receiving section holder having a light-receiving element. The light emission section holder and the light-receiving element are provided in a smoke detection section constituting a smoke detection space. The light emitted from the light-emission element is scattered by smoke entered the smoke detection space. The thus-scattered light is received by the light-receiving element,thereby detecting occurrence of fire. An insect screen is formed from soft fiber having a mesh pattern and is arranged so as to cover the entirety of the smoke detection section.
