3000PLUS/OP Technical data, Installation and commissioning Instructions
Introduction
The Protec 3000Plus/OP is a conventional smoke detector which uses the principle of optical scattering to measure the
density of smoke in a given environment. The microprocessor used in the detector processes the sampled smoke
readings using specially developed algorithms which discriminate against false readings while still allowing a genuine
alarm condition to trigger the device.
