Honeywell Xtralis VESDA Aspirating Smoke Detection in Bhopal

Fire Protection System (FPS), a Honeywell dealer in Bhopal, supplies Xtralis VESDA aspirating smoke detectors, VESDA-E StaX add-ons and the VESDA Sensepoint XCL gas detector (Xtralis is a Honeywell business). FPS installs, commissions and maintains them across Madhya Pradesh.

Where to use Aspirating Smoke Detection

  • Small, business-critical rooms under 500 m2 (VLF-500)
  • Spaces split into many sampling locations, where the exact source of smoke must be found fast (VEA)
  • Sites that want detector testing and maintenance handled from a central point (VEA)
  • Dusty environments where sampling pipes collect dust and lint (Automated Pipe Cleaning)
  • Areas that need early warning of gases as well as fire protection (Sensepoint XCL)
  • Locations that need an IP65 enclosure for gas detection (Sensepoint XCL)
  • VESDA-E installations that need 24 V power with standby battery charging (PSU)

How to choose

An aspirating smoke detector pulls air from the protected area through sampling holes in a pipe network, filters it, and passes it through a detection chamber where light scattering picks up very small amounts of smoke. This is what gives VESDA detectors their very early warning.

For a small, business-critical area of less than 500 m2 (5,380 sq ft), the VESDA VLF-500 is the compact choice. It has four alarm levels: Alert and Action can be set from 0.025 to 2.00% obs/m, and Fire 1 and Fire 2 from 0.025 to 20.00% obs/m, where % obs/m (obscuration per metre) is a measure of how dense the smoke is. Each alarm can have its own delay of 0 to 60 seconds, and status is shown on the detector display and passed on through relays or optional interface cards.

Where you need to know exactly where the smoke is, the VESDA-E VEA is addressable: it draws air from individual sampling points through multi-channel microbore tubes (6 mm outside diameter) of up to 100 m, divides the space into sampling locations and has three sensitivity settings. It is commissioned with VSC software, has local smoke test ports for servicing, and its filter, smoke sensor module, pump and rotary valve can be replaced on site.

Two StaX add-ons extend VESDA-E systems: the Automated Pipe Cleaning StaX blows dust and lint out of the pipes in dusty sites, and the PSU StaX supplies 24 V power with a charger for standby batteries. For gas threats, the VESDA Sensepoint XCL is a gas detector set up from a phone over Bluetooth. FPS supplies, installs, commissions and maintains all of these in Bhopal and across Madhya Pradesh.

Frequently asked questions

What is an aspirating smoke detector?
It draws air from the protected area through a network of sampling pipes into a sensitive detection chamber, so very small amounts of smoke can be found early. The Xtralis VESDA range works this way.
Which VESDA detector suits a small, business-critical room?
Honeywell designs the VESDA VLF-500 for small, business-critical environments of less than 500 m2 (5,380 sq ft). It has four alarm levels and an IP30 enclosure.
What does addressable mean on the VESDA-E VEA?
The VEA samples air from separate points through microbore tubes and divides the space into sampling locations, so it can show where the smoke came from. This helps the response team go straight to the right place.
What is the VESDA Sensepoint XCL?
It is a gas detector in the VESDA range that gives early warning of gases alongside fire protection. It pairs with a smart device app over Bluetooth for installation, commissioning and maintenance, and offers analog 4-20 mA or Modbus versions.
Is FPS a Honeywell dealer for VESDA in Bhopal?
Yes. FPS is a Honeywell dealer and supplies, installs, commissions and maintains Xtralis VESDA detection in Bhopal and across Madhya Pradesh. Prices are on request: call or WhatsApp +91 92440 89060.
