Xtralis OSID Emitter
£252.00
Summary
Open-area Smoke Imaging Detection (OSID) by Xtralis represents a revolutionary advancement in projected beam smoke detection technology. This innovative system combines advanced dual wavelength projected beams with optical imaging technology to deliver early warning smoke detection that overcomes traditional beam detection challenges including false alarm incidents and alignment difficulties.
The OSID system provides a low-cost, reliable and easy-to-install solution that measures smoke levels entering beams of light projected over protected areas. With a single OSID Imager capable of detecting up to seven Emitters, the system delivers wide coverage areas whilst maintaining exceptional stability and sensitivity with superior immunity to high-level lighting variability.
Utilising unique dual wavelength particle detection and CMOS imaging chip technology, OSID distinguishes between particle sizes and provides repeatable smoke obscuration measurements while rejecting transient dust particles and solid intruding objects, making it ideal for demanding fire detection applications.

FAQ
What is the maximum detection range of the OSID system?
The OSID system offers a maximum detection range of 150m (492 ft) for the OSI-10 imager, making it suitable for large open areas and high ceiling applications.
How many emitters can a single imager detect?
A single OSID imager can detect up to seven emitters, providing wide coverage areas with the 90° imager offering 80° horizontal and 48° vertical field of view.
What makes OSID different from traditional beam detectors?
OSID uses advanced dual wavelength detection (UV and IR) combined with optical imaging technology, allowing it to distinguish between particle sizes and reject false alarms from dust or building movement whilst requiring less precise alignment.
How long do the battery-powered emitters last?
Battery-powered emitters are available with either 3-year (high power version) or 5-year (standard power version) battery life, significantly reducing installation time and costs.
What alarm threshold options are available?
The OSID system offers three selectable alarm thresholds: Low (20% – highest sensitivity), Medium (35% – medium sensitivity), and High (50% – lowest sensitivity with maximum resistance to nuisance conditions).
What approvals and certifications does OSID have?
OSID holds multiple international approvals including UL, ULC, FM, AFNOR, CE (EMC and CPR), VdS, ActivFire, and BOSEC certifications.
