VESDA VLI Secondary Foam Filter
£96.48 (inc VAT: £115.78)
Summary
VESDA VLI aspirating smoke detectors provide very early detection of smoke and are specifically designed for use in harsh and dirty environments. To achieve accurate and consistent detection, VESDA VLI detectors use a series of filters to remove contaminants from the sampled air, ensuring reliable operation in challenging conditions.
After the first stage of filtration, a portion of the sampled air is passed through a secondary foam filter to remove any remaining contaminants, thus reducing nuisance alarms and prolonging the life of the detection elements. This secondary filtration stage is crucial for maintaining optimal detector performance and reliability in environments with high levels of contamination. The easy-to-replace design ensures minimal maintenance downtime whilst maximising system availability.

FAQ
How often should the VESDA VLI Secondary Filter be replaced?
It is recommended that the secondary filter is replaced every four years or when a filter fault occurs. However, it may be necessary to replace the secondary filter more frequently if the detector is installed in areas that experience high levels of contamination.
What is the purpose of the secondary filter in the VESDA VLI system?
After the first stage of filtration, a portion of the sampled air is passed through the secondary foam filter to remove any remaining contaminants. This reduces nuisance alarms and prolongs the life of the detection elements.
How do I replace the VESDA VLI Secondary Filter?
To replace the filter: set the detector to standby mode, remove the front cover, remove two secondary foam filter screws, remove the secondary foam filter. To reinstall, follow the removal procedure in reverse order and execute the “Reset Secondary Filter Life” command in Xtralis VSC.
What environments is the VESDA VLI Secondary Filter designed for?
The VESDA VLI Secondary Filter is specifically designed for harsh and dirty environments where standard filtration may not provide adequate contaminant removal, ensuring reliable smoke detection performance.
Is the VESDA VLI Secondary Filter compatible with all VESDA detectors?
The VESDA VLI Secondary Filter is specifically designed for VESDA VLI aspirating smoke detectors. Compatibility with other VESDA models should be verified with the manufacturer.
What type of filter technology is used in the secondary filter?
The VESDA VLI Secondary Filter uses foam filter technology specifically designed to remove remaining contaminants after the first stage of filtration, providing enhanced protection for the detection elements.
