Fire detector - Your building and the people and objects in it are certainly important to you. Protect your valuables by using fire alarms. Find out here how fire detectors differ and what you should consider when buying one. Fire detectors play an important role in the area of alarm systems. These are an indispensable part of security in private and public buildings. In some cases, the building must be equipped with fire alarms.What are fire alarms?Fire alarms are technical devices or systems that draw your attention to an emergency. This alarm allows you to take action to extinguish a fire and protect people and assets. The devices can be found in the private environment, as well as in commercial units, office buildings, industrial plants and public facilities. Each fire detector detects a hazard in different ways. Irrespective of this, in the event of a fire:acoustic signals are triggered to draw the attention of people in the buildingRemote signals are sent to alert the fire brigade directly or via a central station A complete fire alarm system usually consists not only of the detectors, but also of a fire alarm control panel. This can be set up to trigger various actions automatically. These include, for example:the automatic information of the fire brigadethe activation of extinguishing systems for active firefightingswitching on ventilation systems or extraction systemsopening escape routes In this eibabo® catalogue, the focus is on the detector devices that should be installed at central points in a building to detect hazards.What are the differences between the fire detectors?The various fire detectors are, so to speak, the 'sensory organs' of a fire alarm system. We differentiate between automatic fire detectors and non-automatic fire detectors. Automatic fire detectors detect a fire based on physical properties. Non-automatic fire detectors must be operated manually. The nature of the danger can also be very different. With the automatic fire detectors, you have the choice between simple or technically sophisticated fire gas detectors or smoke gas detectors, heat detectors, smoke detectors, flame detectors, multiple sensor detectors and various special detectors. Manual fire alarms with broken glass windows are non-automatic fire alarms.Fire gas detectors and smoke gas detectorsThe carbon monoxide detector is one of the fire gas detectors. Carbon monoxide is a toxic, colorless, odorless gas produced by combustion. Carbon monoxide detectors or CO fire detectors measure the carbon monoxide content in the air using an electrochemical cell.NoticeThus, a carbon monoxide detector is not only a fire detector. It also warns you if a combustion appliance (such as the heater) in your home has broken down and is emitting dangerous carbon monoxide.However, these devices do not detect smoke or other products of combustion. Other gas detectors immediately detect hazardous fire gases such as hydrogen sulfide, hydrogen fluoride, hydrogen chloride and chlorine gas. Flue gases are sulfur dioxide, nitrogen, carbon dioxide or nitrogen oxide.smoke detectorThere are three different types of smoke detectors, each with a different operating principle. In ionization smoke detectors there is a chamber with two electrically charged plates. In between a small amount of radioactive material. The air between the plates ionizes and current can flow. If smoke enters the chamber, it interrupts the flow of ions and the current flow is reduced. The result is that the alarm is triggered. Ionization smoke detectors work well in flaming fires.The light scattering smoke detectors work according to the Tyndall effect. This means that in a dark chamber there is a light source and a light sensor. Light source and light sensor are separated from each other in such a way that the light does not hit the sensor. Smoke in the chamber causes the light to scatter, which then hits the sensor. The alarm is triggered. These detectors are particularly suitable for smoldering fires.On the other hand, the smoke detector works with the principle of blackout. Light hits a sensor. The sensor measures the amount of light received. If there are fluctuations in the measured values, smoke is assumed and the alarm is triggered. Larger areas can be monitored with this type of detector because the light source and sensor can be positioned further apart.heat detectorHeat detectors or thermal detectors register the rise in temperature caused by a fire. Some heat detectors trigger automatically when a preset ambient temperature is reached. Other models monitor the rate of temperature rise and trigger if the temperature rises faster than the preset value over a period of time. In this case, an alarm is also triggered if the set trigger temperature has not yet been reached. Intelligent heat detectors give an alarm when the ambient temperature around the detector rises above a variable, relative value depending on other parameters.flame detectorFlame detectors are typically used in open areas or outdoors. However, these devices are also used indoors. Their sensors determine the energy emissions of a fire in the ultraviolet and infrared range. Flame detectors do not analyze combustion products such as heat and smoke.Multi-sensor detectorMulti-sensor detectors use a combination of multiple sensor types. These sense smoke, heat, or carbon monoxide to detect signs of a fire. A complex algorithm in the detector circuit uses the measured values to decide when an alarm is to be triggered. When integrated into a fire alarm system, the detector outputs a value based on the combined readings of all integrated sensors. These devices are sensitive to a variety of fires.Image: Hekatron ORS 210 optical smoke detectormanual call pointA manual detector or glass break detector is a device that allows anyone to trigger an alarm. To do this, a fragile element (usually a transparent pane) must be broken. The alarm can be triggered via a button behind it.How can fire alarm systems be structured?The function of fire alarm systems goes far beyond the mere alarming by individual detectors. You can implement these individually depending on your budget and architecture. A complete and reliable threat detection is important.In conventional systems, detectors / sensors / detectors are wired to the main control unit using classic cable connections. The detectors are divided into areas in order to be able to locate the danger point quickly. This makes the work of the fire brigade easier and is relevant for general building management. The current status of each area can be seen on the control center using a lamp or text display. The more differentiated the division of the areas, the more precisely the alarm trigger can be localized.Fire detectors with BUS technology are integrated into a KNX building automation system. The principle for detecting a hazard is similar to that of a conventional system. The connection is established via a BUS data line with the network control. In a KNX environment, each detector is given a fixed address. You can determine exactly which detector triggered the alarm via the control panel.Wireless systems are interesting alternatives to implement conventional or KNX-based fire alarm systems. Signals are transmitted between the sensors and the control center over secure, license-free frequencies. With a wireless system you are very flexible and can make extensions and changes without having to change anything in the fixed installation.Which fire alarm should I buy?You have now become acquainted with numerous fire detectors and alarm systems. Please assess the risk of a fire individually and also the dangers that such an emergency situation means for you and your building. TIP:Rely on a healthy mix of different fire detectors. In order to be able to detect the widest possible spectrum of different fires, we recommend a combination of different fire detectors. You cannot know beforehand whether the worst case scenario is fire and flames, a smoldering fire with heavy smoke development or a defective solid fuel appliance. Not every fire detector detects every type of fire. A multi-sensor detector offers many possible uses. The division into individual devices has the advantage that there is still a certain level of protection even if a single device fails.

Sensor blinds-time switches - As part of your building automation, should your blinds react independently to wind speeds or brightness? Then you need wind sensors, brightness sensors or multi-sensors, which determine the required measured values. We would like to explain the functional principle of the most common devices to you below.Sensors for controlling blinds are measured value transmitters for the wind-dependent, light-dependent and time-dependent control of sun protection products. The use of these devices makes the operation of your sun protection systems and shading systems particularly easy and convenient. The sensors react automatically to wind, the position of the sun, rain or other environmental influences and forward the measured values in the form of electrical signals. As specialists for smart home installations, we offer you only high-quality components for your systems in the eibabo® technology store and help you to select the right products.What is a wind sensor?A wind sensor is also known as an anemometer. It is a device for measuring the speed of movement of gases, as well as air in closed systems. In meteorology, the device is used to measure wind speed. Depending on the functional principle, a distinction is made between the following types of anemometers:mechanical wind sensorsthermal wind sensorsacoustic wind sensors TIPInstall a wind sensor as high as possible and free-standing, preferably on a mast at a height of about 10 meters. Dormer windows, house walls or trees influence the measured values and falsify the actual conditions. The mechanical wind sensorIn a mechanical wind sensor, the movement of gas or air causes a windmill or impeller to rotate. This sensitive element is movably mounted on an axis of the device connected to the measuring device. The wind causes the wind wheel to rotate around its own axis and the measuring mechanism records the number of revolutions per unit of time. From this, the speed of the wind is calculated. The wind sensor forwards the information to the connected display devices or command devices. This type of wind sensor has been around for a long time and is still widely used today. The disadvantage of these devices lies in the moving parts. These are subject to a certain amount of wear and tear and can be damaged by objects flying around. As a result, failures or faulty measurement data can occur suddenly or slowly and unnoticed.The thermal wind sensorThe functional principle of thermal anemometers is based on measuring the temperature decrease of a heated body (usually a glowing wire) through gas movement. This means that there are highly sensitive sensors in a probe that measure the temperature and air speed. The sensors work on the principle of convection and measure the removal of heat from a heated surface by a moving medium. Applications are in construction, manufacturing, meteorological stations, underground utilities, and in rooms with industrial air conditioning and ventilation systems.The acoustic wind sensorUltrasonic anemometers are based on the change in the speed of sound in gases or air depending on the speed and direction of the wind. The speed of sound against the wind direction is lower than in still air. With the wind, the speed is higher. An acoustic wind sensor evaluates these speed differences and forwards the values to downstream devices.Image: Warema 623021 sensorWhat other sensors can blinds be controlled with?brightness sensorsLight sensors work with photodetectors that record the amount of daylight at the current time. According to the preset programming, the device responds with the output of an electrical signal. As a rule, this is used to regulate the illuminance inside buildings. However, light sensors also work together with roller shutters, curtains or blinds. When the sun shines, the light sensor signals that the windows should be shaded.precipitation sensorsPrecipitation sensors are devices that record the amount of precipitation over a period of time. Rain, hail, snow and mixed precipitation are measured. Depending on the model, the devices are able to interact with actuators and actuators via a wired and/or wireless connection. This ensures an appropriate and immediate response to changing weather conditions. Rain gauges can be used even in difficult weather conditions, as they are designed to provide accurate readings even in strong winds and other unfavorable factors.multisensorsMultisensors are also offered as environmental sensors, multiple sensors or weather stations. These are wired or radio-capable sensors that record various weather data and thus enable the automatic control of building services. The sensors are equipped with various measurement functions, such as temperature, rain, wind speed, humidity, position of the sun, sun height and/or illuminance.Here you saveMultisensors provide a variety of different data and enable automation based on different measured values. The devices are usually less expensive than the sum of the corresponding individual sensors.A clock is also often integrated. Then automatisms can be regulated not only on the basis of the environmental conditions, but also according to the lapse of time. The measured data serve as the basis for triggering automatic processes and are transmitted to the registered recipients for this purpose. Among other things, blinds can be automatically moved to the sun protection position when the sun is shining brightly. Using additional actuators, lights can also be switched on and off automatically at certain brightness values or shading can be automatically retracted in the event of wind or rain.What should I look out for when buying sensors for my blind automation?If you know what data you want to collect, pay attention to the following criteria when purchasing your sensors:Easy installation and setupNumber and positioning of the sensorsquality and manufacturerConnectivity to your network We carry high-quality sensors from leading global manufacturers such as Berker, Busch Jaeger, Eltako, Gira, Jung, Merten, Rademacher, Schalk, Siemens, Somfy, Theben and Warema.

Proximity sensors - Proximity switches or proximity sensors are electrical components that register the approach of an object without contact and can react to it. They are used, for example, in industrial production processes when a workpiece or another object has reached a specific position within the process and a follow-up action is to be triggered automatically accordingly. In addition, they are of course also used to trigger safety devices or to open and close doors. In order to be able to install such systems, your eibabo technology store offers you high-quality proximity switches and proximity sensors as well as a wide range of innovative additional components for sale. These include, for example, position switches, light barriers of all kinds, signal transmitters, distance sensors, light curtains, light sensors, various reading devices, actuators, measuring transducers and much, much more.

Sensor monitoring - There are numerous techniques and products for sensory monitoring of physical or chemical states such as temperature, pressure, brightness, humidity, pH values or currents, as well as for determining quantities, speeds, presences, directions and so on. Almost all engineering-based processes can be detected or monitored by sensors to increase overall safety, acquire information, and facilitate work or improve it in terms of accuracy and speed. You can find many of them here in your eibabo technology store. High-quality sensors of all kinds, relays, control devices, monitoring modules, signaling devices and security terminals are just a small part of our large range with which you can set up your sensory monitoring system.Catalogue content:In this eibabo® catalogue Installation bus systems > Sensor control for bus system you will find items from the following product groups:Item overview:Bus system sensor monitoringCommunication toolControl unitDetector/Contact/SensorEIBLight controlMotion detectorMotion sensorPresence detectorSecurity terminalSensor control for bus systemSensor relaySignalling group terminalWeather stationZone terminalfrom the following manufacturers:Manufacturer overview catalogue Sensor monitoring:ABBBusch JaegerEltakoHagerZumtobel

Photoelectric sensor - energetic - In the field of optoelectronic sensors, a distinction is made, among other things, according to the principle of how a switching process is triggered in order to generate a signal. For example, there is the principle of dark switching and the principle of light switching. With dark switching, a transmitter continuously illuminates a receiver. If the light signal is interrupted by an object, it literally goes dark in the receiver and a switching signal is triggered. We know this from a classic light barrier. The principle of light switching with a light button works exactly the other way around. The light is emitted in such a way that it does not reach any receiving unit. However, if the light hits an object from which it is reflected to the receiver, this is registered and a switching signal is triggered. You can find high-quality light barriers and light sensors for manufacturing the systems described here in the eibabo technology store.Catalogue content:In this eibabo® catalogue Sensors > Light scanner, energetic you will find items from the following product groups:Item overview:Background suppressionButtonComplete light barrierDC light barrierDiffuse buttonDiffuse mode sensorDiffuse reflective photoelectric sensorEnergetic light buttonLaser buttonLight barriersLight curtainLight scanner, energeticLight sensorLight switchOne-way light barrierPhotoelectric barrierPush buttonReflex sensorThread light barrierfrom the following manufacturers:Manufacturer overview catalogue Photoelectric sensor - energetic:BaumerIfm ElectronicIpf ElectronicOmronPepperl + FuchsRockwellSchmersalSchneider ElectricSensopartSickWenglor

Tactile sensor - Smart, individual, simple, extravagant, futuristic - touch sensors, also known as KNX buttons, like to attract admiring glances and their modern design alone suggests to every user that this is more than a conventional light switch. Rockers, glowing LEDs, small symbols or even LCD displays give an idea of the numerous functions hidden behind many an installation. In addition, there is often a very noble selection of materials such as high-quality metal, acrylic or glass, which always exudes a touch of extravagance. But why are multifunctional touch sensors needed and how do you use their potential optimally? We give you a brief insight here.The basics in a nutshellTouch sensors are multifunctional control elements for the smart home.The design and function selection is huge, from a single button to a control center with 12 or more buttons, everything is possible.You can use it to control, for example, the light, its dimming, blinds, heating, entertainment center, door opener and all other devices in your home network.The button functions can be assigned individually and can be easily reprogrammed if necessary.Integrated LEDs or other displays often show the respective operating status or provide information about errors. What is a touch sensor or a KNX button?You can operate the end devices integrated in your smart home network with a touch sensor or a KNX button. This can be blinds that you can raise and lower - light that you dim - the heating that you regulate or completely individual, user-defined scenarios. Depending on the model, operation is optically individual. In general, it is operated using a different number of buttons or rocker switches and/or even displays.The different types of KNX buttonsUsing a KNX universal button interface, you can basically turn any conventional button into a KNX button. These interfaces are installed in a deep device box behind the standard button and thus take on the task of the binary input, which converts the classic switching processes into KNX signals.Which doses are suitable?To do this, use a branch switch box with 4 screw domes or a deep switch box or an electronics box. Use our eibabo® search to quickly find the right item.This solution is particularly suitable for the standard application 'basic lighting' per room (see: 'What are standard applications?') or for the modernization of existing installations as well as for inexpensive and functionally manageable system extensions.'Real' KNX tactile sensors are much more complex and range up to control elements with elegant touch displays. Temperature sensors, LED displays and background lighting are often already combined in one device. In contrast to the simple interface variant, there is often the option of providing each key with additional functions, which are then triggered, for example, by a long press, double-click or even triple-click. TIP:We recommend planning well in advance so that you can later fit all the functions you need into your keypad. While some KNX push-button sensors require a separate bus coupler to which they are plugged, the bus coupler is already integrated in others. The eibabo® technology store also has both complete KNX pushbuttons and pushbutton sensor modules. The latter is 'only' about the technology and you can choose a matching design cover yourself. The possibilities are diverse - you can choose exactly what suits your project.The advantages and disadvantages of tactile sensorsThe central control of a large number of actions on different end devices is certainly the greatest advantage. The plus in comfort is combined with the flexible options for changing and expanding a well-planned setup. The disadvantage is certainly the slightly higher acquisition costs of a smart home solution compared to a conventional electrical installation. In the case of units with many keys and each assignment with different control variables (print, double-click), the overview of all the functions and their control can easily be lost.Unusual application examples in everyday lifeWe have already mentioned a few classic use cases. In the course of our more than 25 years of work, we have also been able to implement 'very special' projects. It starts with the smart opening and locking of the cat flap in the basement, continues with the choreographed lighting of exterior facades and doesn't end with the automatic pool cover, the fully automated aquarium or the heated driveway in winter. You want to know more? We answer frequently asked questions.Nobody knows everything and sometimes there are small ambiguities that prevent us from correctly grasping connections or from deciding on one or the other product. You may also find an answer to your question in the following topics.How are the KNX devices programmed?Many interested parties are quickly startled by the term 'programming', but it's not that difficult at all, because it's not actually programmed with the 'ETS', but assignments and parameterizations are carried out.What does ETS mean for KNX?The term ETS (Engineering Tool Software) means that it is programming software for commissioning the KNX devices. The tool is more of a software for parameterization and basically also suitable for laypersons with an interest in the logic of the KNX.No programming knowledge or programming language is required. If you are interested in the rather simple logical connections of the KNX bus, you are in a position to create a project. Of course, more complex projects require a certain amount of experience. We always recommend having the basic project created by an experienced system integrator. This allows you to easily change important parameters yourself later on, since many things change in the life cycle.Which touch sensor or KNX button should I buy?Well, we can't give a general answer to this question, but we can perhaps provide some impetus for decision-making. KNX push button sensors are available in a variety of designs. The manufacturers offer solutions for every taste. However, you should not only be guided by the optics. In addition to the optics, eibabo® also recommends checking the applications (parameters and functions) provided by the manufacturer for the ETS (Engineering Tool Software). Significant deficits can open up here in the course of a project if the beautiful button were not able to control the necessary actions correctly. Plan exactly which requirements you place on the respective push button sensor and then select a suitable model accordingly. NOTE:ETS is standardized software for commissioning the KNX devices and can be obtained from www.knx.org. With regard to the design, you should also rely on optics that have a positive effect in the long term and not follow every short-term trend, only to realize a few years later that the brightly colored displays and the LEDs for various status messages on the buttons in the wall were a bit too much of a good thing. It makes sense to ensure that displays can be dimmed or configured in different brightness levels and status LEDs can be configured and switched off. A timeless surface design, for example, has simple elegance, looks classy, is durable and has no playful rockers that could quickly gather dust.How do I recognize whether a touch sensor already has a bus connection?Some touch sensors already have a bus connection. If you're not sure, a look at the back will clarify.Image: KNX push button sensor - Jung 4047TSMA touch sensor is equipped with a bus coupling if it has a black and red (or gray and red) terminal for the bus on its back. This 4-wire terminal with plug-in terminal connection serves as a distributor for up to four KNX lines.How do I keep track of the individual functions of complex touch sensors?We would like to encourage you to think: Imagine you come into a room and have to press the small second rocker from the top left on an 8-way pushbutton sensor every day to switch on the basic lighting. It can quickly happen that you accidentally set the pressure point on the adjacent rocker and unfortunately operate the blinds at 11:00 p.m. Not to mention how a guest or child is supposed to cope with it.So it can indeed be a bit difficult to always steer correctly. But: The advantages of the KNX lie in the intelligence of the system, which is implemented by the system integrator based on their experience and your functional requirements. For this reason, you should arrange functions logically or thematically and, if necessary, group them on easy-to-use buttons. If necessary, it is advisable to divide standard applications and detailed circuits into different buttons at different mounting heights.What are default applications? What is the best way to implement this into the system?The first switch box is usually placed on the 1.05m upper edge of the finished floor. At this point you should mount a conventional double button and connect it twice to the bus via a very inexpensive KNX button interface. Of course, you can also mount 2 or 3 double buttons and integrate a 4-way or 6-way KNX button interface. A deep switch box or electronics box is installed as a flush-mounted box in order to be able to place the small button interface behind the double button.Here you save!Combine a KNX button interface with a conventional double button.With the conventional double button, you have more choice in the design of the switch range and, in the event of defects or design changes, you can obtain a lifetime replacement without having to reprogram. You can assign the most important and most frequently used basic lighting to this button or parameterize the button or the button interface with light scene recall. A beautiful flat switch is also very easy to use for guests and children.What is meant by detailed switching on the KNX button?You should mount detailed circuits of the certainly many functions in a room on the 1.60m upper edge of the finished floor and call them up from a room controller or multiple push-button sensor with an optionally integrated room temperature controller (see also our multiple control unit catalogue). A room temperature controller already requires this mounting height for optimal control. At this user-friendly height, you can then carry out all additional controls for additional lighting, blinds, roller shutters, entertainment, etc.Touch sensors wear out very quickly! Is that correct?Like all other technical components that are used more or less every day, tactile sensors and control points in general are subject to a certain amount of wear and tear. However, this is no different than with conventional buttons or switches. It is possible that individual parts that have been in use for a decade are then worn out.Does it make sense to control the heating using touch sensors?Definitely, as a rule, individual room heating controls are also required for KNX installations. In terms of value for money, the combined buttons with room temperature controllers are the best choice, also in terms of user-friendliness.Which manufacturer offers the most beautiful and best KNX buttons?Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, we won't take a position on that. In terms of quality, however, all brands perform very well. There is no such thing as the 'best' touch sensor. Each manufacturer has its individual strengths in terms of applications (parameters and functions). eibabo® offers switches from all brand manufacturers (from ABB, Berker, Busch-Jaeger, Gira, Hager, Jung, MDT, Merten to Siemens).
