More About Ionisation Smoke Alarms:
Ionisation alarms function by utilising a small amount of radioactive material to ionise the air within their detection chamber. When smoke particles enter the chamber, they disrupt the ionisation process, leading to a reduction in the electrical current between two charged plates. This disruption triggers the alarm, alerting occupants to potential fire hazards.
Ionisation alarms are highly effective at detecting fast-flaming fires with intense heat and open flames, such as those involving flammable liquids or paper. However, they may have limitations in detecting slow-smouldering fires or fires with larger smoke particles. For comprehensive fire detection, it is recommended to consider a combination of ionisation and photoelectric smoke alarms or choose photoelectric alarms, which are generally more effective in detecting smouldering fires.
Why Photoelectric Alarms are Being Legislated:
Photoelectric smoke alarms utilise photosensitive lights and reflectors to effectively detect thick smoke produced by slow-smouldering fires, including those originating from synthetic materials found in modern furnishings like carpets and plastics.
Recognising the superior performance of photoelectric smoke alarms, the Fire Protection Association of Australia (FPA) has mandated legislation in Queensland requiring the installation of photoelectric smoke alarms in homes. This legislation emphasises the importance of early detection and increased safety, making photoelectric alarms the recommended choice for homeowners.
