The LSC System essentially consists of a smoke exhaust control panel equipped with an emergency generator and with an integrated smoke suction system for the detection of smoke gas in the lift shaft.
It is specially designed for use in lift shafts and works on the principle of constant air monitoring. The air sucked in is examined by the smoke suction system with regard to the concentration of smoke gas.
In the event of fire, an alarm is immediately activated and the smoke exhaust flap at the top of the shaft - driven by an electric motor - opens so that the smoke and toxic gases can escape unhampered and as quickly as possible.
Operation and sensor technologyIn addition to the permanent monitoring of the lift shaft by the smoke suction system, a fire alarm can be activated by optical fire detectors or by a manual activator and smoke exhaust - for example in the main evacuation level of the lift . This is the best way to ensure smoke exhaust.
Louver windows and light domesIn the event of a fire, a safe and reliable opening of the smoke exhaust element at the top of the lift shaft is of enormous significance. D+H motors - controlled by the LSC System - ensure a reliable opening of the louver windows or the light dome.
