Abstract (en)

A scattered-light smoke detector comprises an optoelectronic arrangement for measuring scatter signals (SB, SF) at, at least, a forward and a backward scatter angle, and evaluation electronics (12) for determining an alarm value in dependence of the ratio of the scatter signals (SB, SF) and comparing it with an alarm threshold. The scatter signals (SB, SF) are preprocessed and the alarm threshold is weighted. The weighting of the alarm threshold occurs in dependence on the relation of the scatter signals (SB, SF). There occurs additionally a weighting of the relation of the scatter signals, whereby the weighting factor is selectable in an application-specific manner.
