It is essential that fire is not allowed to spread in buildings should it break out. Fire protection regulations therefore prescribe fire barriers. These include fire doors, industrial fire doors and fire dampers, which are generally kept closed at all times. In areas where doors are left open, such as heavily traveled passageways and corridors, a self-closing mechanism must be automatically triggered in case of fire. However, the door must not close when persons or objects are in the closing area. Legislation consequently requires monitoring with appropriate safety devices. The technical challenge is to ignore the smoke and at the same time reliably detect objects in it. These certified photoelectric sensors fulfill this function.
