The primary difference in alarm verification lies in how each detector type senses smoldering fire particles and interprets alarm signals. Photoelectric smoke detectors excel at detecting larger smoke particles typically produced by smoldering fires because they operate on the light scattering principle. A light beam is directed into a sensing chamber, and when smoke particles enter, they scatter the light onto a photocell, triggering an alarm. Alarm verification in phot....
