VESDA air sampling smoke detection system
CAUTION:
Excess dust within the HP POD 40c G2 can cause the VESDA smoke detector to
trigger a fire alarm.
The VESDA system features a single zone laser scan early warning smoke detector to provide the earliest
warning of a potential fire.
The orange VESDA conduits that run throughout the HP POD 40c G2 include inlets for smoke sampling. The

the air through a dual-stage filter:
the air through a dual-stage filter:
•
Stage 1—Dust and dirt are removed from the air sample.
•
Stage 2—Remaining contaminants in the air sample are removed with an ultra-fine filter.
After the air passes through the dual-stage filter, it enters a calibrated detection chamber where a laser scans
the air sample for the presence of smoke. When the smoke concentration reaches the first setpoint, the

VESDA system will send an alarm signal indicating that a fire might exist. When the smoke concentration
reaches the second setpoint, the VESDA system indicates that a fire does exist in the HP POD 40c G2 and
sends an activation signal to the fire suppression system.
