ABSTRACT
Abstract
The Advanced Discovery System (ADICOS®) is used for early detection of fires
in industrial environments. It is comprised of various, separate detector
units. By parameterizing and arranging the detectors appropriately, the system
fulfills a predefined detection goal. The ADICOS system ensures reliable early
detection of embers and smoldering fires even in adverse environments.
GSME fire gas detectors detect at an early stage gases that are characteristic
for developing fires. They detect both open and concealed smoldering fires.
Highly sensitive and at the same time robust, they are ideal for fire gas
detection in industrial environments and already in the incipient stage.
Four parameterizable semiconductor gas sensors monitor and evaluate the
concentration curve of these gases according to multi-criteria technology.
This enables the GSME detectors to distinguish real fires from interference
signals. In industrial environments, this often occurs under harsh conditions,
e.g. due to vehicle exhaust fumes, dust, mist or vapor. With the ADICOS
software, all detector states and concentration curves can be displayed
graphically. Sensitivities as well as alarm thresholds can be parameterized
individually for each detector. The GSME fire gas detectors can be used in
almost any indoor plant area, taking into account the air flow conditions.
In case special interface modules are used, the devices can also be integrated
into fire alarm systems of common manufacturers and transmit their operating
status to the fire alarm control panel.

3.5 Sintered metal filter and sensors
The sintered metal filter (> Chap. 3.1.2) is the central element on the
detector front. It is screwed into the enclosure cover and contains a
continuous element made of sintered metal granules. The fire gases to be
detected can diffuse through the pores of this sintered metal and reach the
gas sensors located behind, while dust and moisture cannot penetrate the
inside of the detector. Thus, the sensors are protected from environmental
influences, but can be reached by fire gases.
3.6 Spray protection
The spray protection (> Chap. 3.1.1) is a mechanical add-on for the ADICOS
GSME. It is bolted onto the sintered metal filter and reduces the risk of
condensation in the sensor area and offers a certain protection from drip and
spray water in the installation environment.

Function
During operation, the ADICOS GSME monitors the signals of its gas sensors and triggers an alarm according to the set limit value combinations. If an ADICOS central unit (ADICOS M-BUSMASTER) is used, the detector transmits additionally all sensor and operating data to be displayed in the ADICOS System Software via M-Bus (> Chap. 4.5). If the detector is connected to a fire alarm panel using an integrated interface module, the alarm display of the detector is controlled by the central fire alarm panel.
4.1 Detection
The ADICOS GSME is equipped with four semiconductor gas sensors that can
provide four differnt detection signals depending on actuation and evaluation.
4.1.1 Detection variables and cross-sensitivities

4.1.2 Configuration and evaluation
The ADICOS GSME is characterized by its particular intelligence and
flexibility during signal detection and evaluation. The detector electronics
does not only investigate the concentrations of individual fire gases, but
considers the relations of the detection concentrations as well. These
relations are configured through limit value combinations. Every detector
features two sets with five limit value combinations each.
In the factory configuration, every detector is equipped with a basic
configuration of meaningful alarm parameters. At first, both parameters have
identical default values. For this reason, one set of limit value combinations
is described only in the following sections. The second parameter set is of
particular importance, e.g., when a pre-alarm module is used (> Chap. 7.2.4).
Basic configurations »Standard«, »Extended 1«, »Extended 2« and »Robust« are
currently available. Depending on the application, an individual basic
configuration is possible upon request. The following table shows the
suitability of the basic configurations for typical detection objectives.

*The limit values approx. correspond to the concentrations in ppm for hydrogen and carbon monoxide. However, as the particles to be detected are often present as aerosols, the limit values should rather be considered as characteristics without dimensions. In addition, the function for automatic zero-point adjustment leads to a discrepancy between parameter and actual concentration.
Zero-point adjustment
To prevent incorrect displaying due to sensor aging, the “Standard” basic
configuration features sliding zero-point adjustment of the sensor signals.
However, the longtime constant of this zero-point adjustment of 6 hours also
hides slowly increasing signal backgrounds.
Smoldering fires that develop over a timeframe of days, cannot be detected in the “Standard” basic configuration!

4.3 Signal Relays
The ADICOS GSME is equipped with two signal relays that signal the “Alarm” and
“Fault” states. The “Alarm” signal relay is realized as normally open contact,
the “Fault” signal relay as normally closed contact. The signal lines of the
signal relays are integrated into the ADICOS connection cable (> Chap. 3.4).
4.4 Detector Heating
In the factory configuration, the ADICOS GSME is equipped with an integrated
heating unit. It heats the detector enclosure and prevents condensation of
ambient humidity. Depending on the ordered configuration, it is already
activated with the basic configuration of the detector at the factory. During
operation, detector heating can be switched on and off via the ADICOS System
Software. The power consumption of detector heating is up to 10 VA.
In the case of undervoltage, detector heating is switched off automatically.
Once the undervoltage is corrected, heating becomes only active again after a
detector reset.
Beyond that, the heating function is limited through enclosure temperature
monitoring. If the pre-set maximum temperature (default: 40 °C) is exceeded,
the heating unit switches off automatically, until the enclosure temperature
is lowered again. In the case of a very high ambient temperature and high air
humidity, it may thus be necessary to adjust the set limit temperature for the
heating function accordingly.
4.5 ADICOS M-Bus
The ADICOS M-Bus is a proprietary two-wire data line, which is used to
transfer all detector parameters as well as operating and detection data. With
the help of the ADICOS System Software this data is displayed and archived.
Furthermore the parameters of each connected detector can be adjusted.
The M-Bus lines are integrated into the ADICOS connection cable (> Chap.
3.4).

Installation
WARNING! Danger of malfunction and failure of the detector system Improper
installation of ADICOS detectors can lead to faults and failures of the
detector system. · Installation work may only be performed by specialist
personnel! (> Chap.
2.3, Personnel qualification)
5.1 Installation Location
DANGER! Explosion danger in potentially explosive atmospheres ADICOS GSME in
their standard version may not be installed in explosive atmospheres! · Only
use approved GSME variants for operation within explosive atmo-
spheres!
NOTICE! Correct alignment Arrangement and alignment of ADICOS detectors are
highly important for a reliable detection. Unfavorable placement can lead to
complete ineffectiveness of the detector! · Only experienced specialist
planners may define detector position and
alignment!
5.1.1 Protection aspects
The following aspects must be considered when selecting the installation
location to ensure fault-free operation of the ADICOS GSME detector.
Temperature The ambient temperatures at the planned installation location must
not exceed and/or undercut the specified temperature range (> Chap. 11) of
the ADICOS GSME detector even in the worst-case scenario. Special attention
must be paid to the waste heat of heating-up system components in the
surroundings. Intensive solar irradiation should be avoided as well.
Condensation and contamination The ADICOS GSME detector is basically suited
for operation in dust-loaded environments (not in explosive atmospheres). In
the case of condensation or permanent contact with damp or oil-containing
dusts, the sintered metal filter can be clogged. This reduces the detectivity
of the detector and can lead to ineffectiveness. In the case of condensation,
detector heating and spray protection must be used. Beyond that, the sintered
metal filter must be regularly checked for incrustation.
NOTICE! Danger of sensitivity loss and failure of the detector system In dust
environments with simultaneous high humidity, the functionality of the
sintered metal filter may be impaired. · In case of high dust exposure in
combination with high air humidity, contact
the manufacturer for consultation!
ADICOS GSME
405-2010-003 EN54
21
instAllAtion
Moisture
If drip or spray water is to be expected in the planned installation
environment, direct contact with the sintered metal filter must be prevented.
This also applies in the case of regular building cleaning with water. Spray
protection must be used in the case of moisture!
Vibration
Strong vibrations can damage the electronics of the ADICOS GSME detector. If
strong vibration sources can be found in the surroundings of the planned
installation location, the detector must be positioned such that it is
protected from vibrations.
Sensor toxins
Silicone-containing hydrocarbons (siloxanes) can oxidize and thus damage the
surface of the semiconductor gas sensors of the ADICOS GSME detector. No
outgassing adhesives, sealants and lubricants (e.g., silicone) may be used in
the surroundings of the detector.
Electromagnetic radiation Electromagnetic radiation can impact the electronics
of the ADICOS GSME detector. Do not mount the detector in the immediate
surroundings of power current equipment. Use shielded cables only.
5.1.2 Detection aspects
The following aspects must be considered when selecting the installation
location to ensure reliable and sensitive operation of the ADICOS GSME
detector.
Building geometry and air flow The way fire gases propagate depends on
numerous factors and is far less intuitive as generally assumed. It is thus
difficult inside industrial systems with complex building geometry, possibly
with ventilation systems and machines generating waste heat. There it is a
particular challenge to ensure that the gas emissions from a smoldering fire
reach the detector’s sensors in sufficient concentration.
Thus, all influencing factors of the air flow within the building must be
considered when defining the installation locations for ADICOS GSME detectors.
It may be necessary to perform a fire test at the location of the expected
fire source to identify these factors.
False variables Different false variables can negatively impact the detector
function and lead to false alarms and sensor aging. No exhaust gases e.g. from
conveyor vehicles or fermentation gases from biological or thermal
decomposition must be present at the planned installation location.

5.2 Installation Orientation
NOTICE! Property damage due to incorrect installation A sintered metal filter
clogged with dust deposits reduces the detectivity of the detector and can
lead to ineffectiveness! Water accumulation on the filter can damage the
detector. · Mount the detector with the sintered metal filter pointing
downward! · Use heating if humidity is present!
5.3 Mounting

Operation
During operation, the detector monitors the fire gas concentrations captured by the sensors per its basic configuration and triggers an alarm, when the set alarm limit values are exceeded. The query interval of the sensors amounts to 30 seconds.
7.1 Software Access
If a M-Bus interface is used, detailed detector information can be called up via the ADICOS M-Bus. For this purpose, a service PC with the ADICOS System Software connected to the ADICOS M-BUSMASTER is required.

Using the communication number (COM or K.N.) printed on the type plate and the front of the detector, a single view of the detector can be called up in the software. Within this single view, the concentration profiles of the gas sensors can be called up as chart, for example. The alarm thresholds of the detector can be adjusted here as well.
COM-Nummer
Detailed information regarding the use of the ADICOS System Software as well as the specific approach to changing the detector settings is available upon request.
7.2 Alarm
If the gas concentrations detected by the detector sensors exceed the set
alarm thresholds, the detector triggers an alarm. The internal alarm relay is
activated and the red signal LED is illuminated (without fire panel module).
This status is also transmitted via the M-Bus.
If an alarm delay (see Chap. 7.2.3) has been set, the alarm is not triggered
until the alarm conditions have been met for longer than the set duration.
Fire Detection System Operation
If the detector is connected to a central fire alarm panel, the alarm is
transmitted to the central fire alarm panel via the interface module. The fire
panel switches the detector in alarm state and the alarm relay as well as the
red signal LED of the detector are switched on. If the fire panel does not
switch the ADICOS GSME into alarm state, the red signal LED flashes.
7.2.1 Resetting the alarm
The ADICOS GSME remains in alarm state, as long as the alarm condition is met.
The state is newly determined in every query cycle (30 seconds interval). As
soon as the alarm condition is not met, the alarm state is automatically
reset. Signal LED »Alarm« is only reset after a respective delay, if an alarm
holding time (> Chap. 7.2.2) is set.

ADICOS GSME
operAtion
If the alarm LED is controlled via central fire alarm panel, the alarm state
can be reset via the alarm reset contact of the fire panel. Beyond that, an
alarm can only be reset via a detector reset, which is expressly discouraged.
7.2.2 Alarm holding time
The alarm holding time is an optional parameter that can be adjusted via the
ADICOS System Software. If set, the signal LED »Alarm« is only reset after a
respective delay after the alarm condition is not met anymore. By default, the
alarm holding time amounts to approx. 7.5 minutes.
7.2.3 Alarm delay
The alarm delay is an optional parameter that can be adjusted via the ADICOS
System Software. If set, the alarm state is only triggered, if the alarm
condition is met over the set minimum timeframe (in minutes).
NOTICE! Faulty parametrizing! Incorrect parameterization of the alarm delay
function can lead to ineffectiveness of the detector! · The detector
parameters may only be changed by experienced specialist
personnel! · In case of doubt, contact the manufacturer!
7.2.4 Pre-alarm
If the ADICOS GSME is equipped with a pre-alarm module and respectively
configured, set 2 of the limit value combinations (> Chap. 4.1) is
automatically evaluated as trigger criterion for the pre-alarm. If the limit
values from set 2 are exceeded, the pre-alarm module relay switches and the
red signal LED »Alarm« flashes.

8.1 Condensation and Contamination
Condensation on the detector enclosure, in particular in the area of the sintered metal filter, can lead to reduced sensitivity of the ADICOS GSME detector. If damp dusts form deposits on the detector, the sintered metal filter can become polluted, which leads to reduced detectivity or even ineffectiveness of the detector.
For this reason, condensation must be avoided under any circumstances. In the case of condensation, switch on detector heating and use spray protection! In addition, the sintered metal filter must be checked for pollution within the scope of quarterly maintenance as well as regularly within the first three months after commissioning.
8.2 Cleaning
In the normal case, the ADICOS GSME also works with heavy contamination. Dry
dust can be removed using a vacuum cleaner as needed.
NOTICE! Clogging of the sintered metal filter! The sintered metal filter can

8.5 Detector Replacement
The maximum service life of the sensors of the ADICOS GSME detector is limited
to eight years. Depending on the ambient conditions, the sensitivity of the
sensor can also decrease earlier and make a detector replacement necessary.
Replace ADICOS GSME detectors no later than eight years after commissioning!
The same information apply to detector replacement like for their initial
installation (> Chap. 5, Installation). Proceed as follows to replace the
detector:
8.5.1 Save inventory data Save the inventory data if any of these cases apply:
The ADICOS System Software is used permanently for monitoring measurement
data. The alarm thresholds of the old units do not correspond to the alarm
thresholds of the new

If the alarm thresholds before and after the detector replacement are to be
identical, adopt the alarm thresholds of the old unit for the new unit.
The M-Bus address and the alarm thresholds of the replacement device are
stored in the backup file (see 8.5.1 Save inventory data).
8.5.3 Replace detector If the ADICOS System Software is used permanently for

new device correctly.
For this purpose, adopt the M-Bus address of the old unit for the new unit on
the M-Bus before commissioning (see 8.5.2 Prepare new unit for use).
If interface modules for a fire alarm bus are transferred from old to new
units, make sure that the electronics of the units are protected from external

An update of the device data on the ADICOS System Software has no effect on
the functionality of the new device.
Call up the unit for updating
1 Open ADICOS System Software 2 Call up “Service Funktoinen” 3 Select the
button “Unit input”. (De-
vice input) button 4 Select the old unit in the “Aktive
Geräte” table by double-clicking on it
Z ,,GSME-Dateneingabe” window is open
5 Read in the serial number of the new device by pressing the “Von Melder
lesen” button. Then confirm with “OK”
8.5.5 Optimise alarm thresholds (optional)
Even if you exactly transfer the alarm thresholds from an old device to a new
device, the performance of the new device may differ from the previous
performance of the legacy device.
Possible reasons for different performance with identical alarm thresholds
are:
marginally varying cross-sensitivities Contamination of the sintered metal
filter of old units whose influence on the measure-
ment result cannot be compensated.
Optimise alarm thresholds or set new alarm thresholds using the following
methods: Long-term recording
Long-term recordings are used to record the usual fire gas concentrations at
the site of operation. Fire test Fire tests are used to determine the
expected fire gas concentration in the event of an alarm.
