Xtralis FLX-010 FAAST FLEX Single Pipe ASD Unit

Xtralis FLX-010 FAAST FLEX Single Pipe ASD Unit

Xtralis FAAST FLEX offers a highly flexible and cost-effective ASD solution for a wide range of applications such as small to medium warehouses, cold storage, elevator shafts, ceiling and underfloor voids, transformer and electrical rooms, rest rooms and the like. FAAST FLEX provides consistent detection with minimum nuisance alarms to reduce operational costs enabled by improved detection chamber design.

FAAST FLEX allows a high degree of flexibility through pre-engineered pipe network designs, and true out-of-the-box operation with a built-in user-friendly configuration and control mechanism. It can be configured and commissioned using a 10-line dip-switch arrangement without the need for a special tool.

Through its Bluetooth interface and associated smartphone applications, FAAST FLEX offers extended configuration options and rapid diagnostics.

FAAST FLEX is easy to install with reduced effort and time; 1-man installation with an installation template, different orientations, direct wall-mounting and ample room for wiring. Through its modular design and field replaceable components, FAAST FLEX allows convenient in-field service and maintenance, thus minimizing downtime and reducing ongoing maintenance costs.

How It Works

Air is drawn into the FAAST FLEX through a network of air sampling pipes by speed adjustable aspirator. Each pipe inlet has an airflow sensor that monitors airflow changes in the pipe. Inside the FAAST FLEX, a sample of air is filtered and passed into the detection chamber and analysed for the presence of very small amounts of smoke. Air is exhausted from the FAAST FLEX and may be vented back into the protected zone.
