2 Product description
You will find the characteristics and application areas in this chapter.
2.1 Characteristics
The TITANUS MICRO·SENS® belongs to the group of tried and tested
aspirating smoke detectors of WAGNER Group GmbH.
In addition to monitoring rooms and equipment, the
TITANUS MICRO·SENS® can be used to monitor air conditioning units or
ducts. Using the innovative ROOM IDENT method (optional), the unit can
also determine the location of the fire.
Fire site localisation (optional) The unique ROOM IDENT technology enables the exact localisation of the
fire and monitoring of up to five separate areas. For the fastest possible
intervention of emergency services, the fire site can be marked, e.g. via
response indicators assigned to the different monitoring areas. By means of
a connected relay module, the localised fire site can be forwarded to a
superior fire detection control panel (FDCP).
Sensitivity The TITANUS MICRO·SENS® has a response sensitivity (main alarm) of up
to 0.1 or 0.5 % light obscuration/m. By means of smoke level indication, a
display sensitivity of 0.01 to 0.05 % light obscuration/m is achieved. A wide
detection range across all standard types of blaze is achieved thanks to the
High Power Light Source technology. The unit can optionally have two
response sensitivities (pre-alarm and main alarm).
LOGIC·SENS The intelligent signal processor LOGIC·SENS distinguishes between
deception variable and fire event to prevent false alarms.
PIPE·GUARD In the same way as point-type smoke detectors, which are electronically
monitored for cable breaks and short-circuiting, highly sensitive and
operationally reliable air flow monitoring is required for aspirating smoke
detectors. The unique air flow sensor system used in all
WAGNER Group GmbH aspirating smoke detectors reliably detects
fluctuations in the air flow, for example due to breakage or the blockage of
the pipe system.
Air flow monitoring is temperature-compensated and can be set in relation to
air pressure.

MAN3186 - TITANUS MICRO•SENS®
12
In addition, a dynamic air flow sensor system can be activated in the
diagnostic software. This sensitises the device to quick changes in the air
flow, e.g. in the event the aspiration apertures are suddenly covered. An air
flow fault is already triggered at an air flow deviation of approx. 5%.
Plug‑and‑play The plug-and-play function enables the TITANUS MICRO·SENS® to be
easily installed and commissioned.
The device base is pre-assembled on-site. Due to the presetting of the
detection unit for the standard application, the TITANUS MICRO·SENS® is
immediately ready for operation after installation in the device base.
Redundant fan (optional) For the highest safety requirements, the TITANUS MICRO·SENS® can be
equipped with a redundant fan. ROOM IDENT is not possible when
operating the unit with a redundant fan.
Network capability (optional) Several TITANUS MICRO·SENS® devices can be linked together in an
Ethernet network using a network module. The operator can monitor the
entire system including the smoke level, air flow values, etc. from a central
location using VisuLAN T®, for example. An integrated data logger allows the
data to be stored on a memory card over a longer period of time and
analysed later on. The TITANUS MICRO·SENS® can also be integrated into
existing danger and building management systems via what is referred to as
an OPC server.
Potential-free contacts The TITANUS MICRO·SENS® has one potential-free contact each for alarm
and fault. This means that the unit can be switched to collective and
addressable detection lines of an FDCP (using the suitable addressing
modules).
A relay module (optional) can be connected to the
TITANUS MICRO·SENS®. With this, potential-free contacts are available for
alarm, fault and pre-alarm (RU-2) as well as for ROOM IDENT (RU-1).
Diagnostics The diagnosis device is a system which provides quick and easy device
configuration and fault localisation for set-up operations, inspections and
servicing. Events are stored in the TITANUS MICRO·SENS® for 72 hours
for diagnosis purposes. The events are stored until they are manually
deleted using the diagnostic software.
Point-type detector project
planning The aspiration apertures of the pipe system are equivalent to point-shaped
smoke detectors. The monitoring areas can therefore be planned in
accordance with the currently valid national directives.

MAN3186 - TITANUS MICRO•SENS®
13
Aspiration apertures The pipe system aspiration apertures require a specifically defined opening
diameter, depending on the project specifications. WAGNER Group GmbH
has developed aspiration-reducing film sheets with sleeves and aspiration-
reducing clips in order to achieve these precise aspiration apertures. These
not only allow convenient assembly, but also prevent "whistling" background
noises. A further advantage is the quick and simple checking and detection
of the aspiration aperture diameters.
Extensive pipe accessories The extensive range of WAGNER Group GmbH accessories enables
aspirating smoke detectors to be used even under the most difficult
conditions. Products ranging from various types of air filters to condensate
separators and air purge systems increase service life under extremely
dusty, damp and deep-freeze ambient conditions.

2.2 Areas of application
The TITANUS MICRO·SENS® is an aspirating smoke detector used for the
protection of rooms, facilities and air conditioning ducts.
Principle Air samples are taken from the monitoring area using a pipe system with
defined aspiration apertures and supplied to the detection unit.
This principle is particularly suitable in areas where point smoke detectors
cannot be used or where their use is limited, e.g. areas to be protected
▪with high fire risks
▪with contaminated air where filter elements are required
▪which are difficult to access and where point detectors are difficult to
install or maintain
▪which are air-conditioned
▪which are subjected to high or low temperatures
▪which must be protected against vandalism or sabotage
▪whose height is greater than the permissible height for point detectors.
▪where high detection sensitivity is required
▪in which point detectors are not wanted due to aesthetic reasons
▪where strong electromagnetic fields occur
▪where false alarms must be avoided

Room monitoring The TITANUS MICRO·SENS® is suitable for the monitoring of rooms with,
e.g.
▪Raised floors, suspended ceilings
▪Tunnels, channels, difficult to access cavities
▪Warehouses, refrigerated warehouses, lift shafts
▪Museums, cultural facilities
▪Hotel rooms, hospital rooms, offices, prison cells, train compartments

System monitoring The TITANUS MICRO·SENS® is also suitable for the monitoring of un-
ventilated and forced-ventilated units/cabinets, e.g.:
▪Distribution cabinets, switching cabinets
▪Telephone exchange installations
▪Measuring and control systems
Image 3: Principle of equipment monitoring
The TITANUS MICRO·SENS® can also be used for very early fire detection
in rooms with special air conditioning.
High-quality goods and systems can be reliably monitored thanks to the high
sensitivity level. The TITANUS MICRO·SENS® is therefore particularly
suited for application areas in which:
▪early intervention is required due to high value concentration.
▪systems have to be permanently ready for operation.
▪highly sensitive detection is required (e.g. in areas that have a low level
of smoke particles in the air due to installed filter elements).
▪high air exchange rates exist.

3 Technical description
In this chapter, you will find the overviews of all components and functional
descriptions.
3.1 System description
The TITANUS MICRO·SENS® comprises the detection unit, device base
and pipe system.
The most important component of the TITANUS MICRO·SENS® is the
sensitive detection unit. It comprises:
▪the aspiration unit for transporting the air samples
▪the smoke sensor unit for detecting the smoke aerosols
▪the integrated air flow sensor for monitoring the pipe system for
breakage and blockage
The pipe system fundamentally consists of a pipe and fittings, optionally as a
UPVC or ABS plastic version. Each aspiration aperture in the
TITANUS MICRO·SENS® pipe system represents a ceiling detector in
project planning.

Extensive accessories (e.g. integrated air filter, various external air filters or
air purge system) are available in order to ensure safe operation even under
the most difficult conditions (e.g. recycling areas). For applications with
special safety requirements, a TITANUS MICRO·SENS® version with a
redundant fan can be used.
A deep-freeze version of the TITANUS MICRO·SENS® can be used in
cryogenic areas.
When installed to monitor multiple surveillance areas as well as blind spots,
response indicators for quick identification of the fire site as well as a remote
remote display to show the status of the detection unit are available.
3.1.1 Function
Air samples are taken from the monitored area by means of the aspiration
unit of the TITANUS MICRO·SENS® via a pipe system with defined
aspiration apertures, and are supplied to the sensitivedetection unit.
Detection Depending on the set response sensitivity (0.1 or 0.5 up to 2 % light
obscuration/m) of the detection unit used, the TITANUS MICRO·SENS®
triggers the main alarm when the corresponding light obscuration is reached.
Sensitivities are adjustable in steps of 0.1 % light obscuration/m.
The alarm is indicated via the alarm display on the unit and transmitted to
any connected FDCP. The transmission of alarms and faults can be
assigned different delay times. This is done by means of diagnostic
software.
The intelligent signal processing LOGIC SENS is used to block out
misleading values that are similar to those shown in the event of a fire and
ensures high immunity to false alarms.
Air flow monitoring An air flow sensor checks the connected pipe system for breakage and
blockage. Air flow monitoring is temperature-compensated and can be set in
relation to air pressure.
Depending on the pipe system design and the air flow sensor settings, it
may be possible to detect a blockage in a single aspiration aperture.

MAN3186 - TITANUS MICRO•SENS®

After a programmable delay time has elapsed, the fault is displayed on the
TITANUS MICRO·SENS® and a corresponding fault message is forwarded
via a fault contact to any connected FDCP. The trigger thresholds for the
monitoring window can be adapted to the ambient conditions.

Air flow calibration An automatic, air pressure-independent air flow calibration is carried out on
the TITANUS MICRO·SENS® after the detection unit has been installed in
the device base. In addition, calibration by means of a diagnostic tool is
possible. This can be used to carry out air pressure-dependent or -
independent air flow calibration.
To adjust the TITANUS MICRO·SENS® to the typical air flow of the pipe
network, the air flow initialisation process needs to be performed. This has to
be done for each device once during commissioning, after making changes
to the pipe system planning and after changing the fan voltage.
During the air flow initialisation process, the device initially saves the
measured actual value of the air flow as a target value via the integrated air
flow monitoring. This target value serves as reference value for the further
evaluation of a potential air flow fault. Depending on the selected trigger
threshold, the current air flow value may fluctuate around this target value
