Ionization - type sensors are best at detecting fast - burning fires, while
photoelectric sensors are generally better at alerting you about smouldering, or slow - burning fires.
The RSA - 400 uses both ionization and
photoelectric sensors to detect fast flaming and slow smoldering fires, carbon monoxide and methane gas.
One of the reasons that the Nest Protect is our favorite smart smoke detector is that
its photoelectric sensors can detect both smouldering and fast - burning fires, as well as carbon monoxide.
Available in a $ 120 hard - wired model and a $ 110 battery - powered version, the First Alert alarm uses
photoelectric sensors to catch both fast and slow moving fires.
Photoelectric sensors are less prone to nuisance alarms and are generally better than ionization at catching smoldering fires that put out bigger particles of smoke.
Ionization sensors respond slightly quicker to fast - burning fires, while
photoelectric sensors are faster at detecting smoldering fires (the more common type in homes).
It also has the Split - Spectrum Sensor, a sensor unique to Nest that, while photoelectric, promises to detect fast - burning fires more quickly than traditional
photoelectric sensors do.

TNR's high - speed aluminum security door, for example, boasts
a photoelectric sensor to detect vehicles and can open at a rate of 54 inches per second.
From the rugged, moisture - proof
photoelectric sensor, glass identification via intelligent image sensors, and checking the position of packaging elements through to protecting robotic loaders with safety laser scanners — SICK sensors and systems meet the requirements of the packaging industry.
The First Alert P1010 alarm comes equipped with
a photoelectric sensor to provide the earliest possible warning of fire.
It's
a photoelectric sensor, which is generally better at sensing smouldering fires (ionization sensors are faster at quick - burning fires, but are more prone to nuisance alarms), but Nest's sensor has a second wavelength that's better for picking up flaming fires.
Not exact matches
It is important to make sure that there are both ionization AND
photoelectric smoke alarms in the house, or a dual -
sensor smoke alarm which contains both.
It has only a standard
photoelectric smoke
sensor, it doesn't perform self - tests or give you a heads - up before sounding the siren, and it's compatible with only iOS phones and tablets.
However, two smart smoke alarms coming soon promise to offer true dual - sensing smoke detection, with both
photoelectric and ionization
sensors.
Unlike most
photoelectric alarms that only use one wavelength of light to look for smoke, the Split - Spectrum
Sensor uses two.
The OneLink by First Alert Wi - Fi Smoke and CO Alarm uses
photoelectric smoke
sensors that will supposedly catch both slow - and fast - moving fires while being less prone to nuisance alarms.
This tracker is packed with features: it's water resistant (IP67) and will track your daily exercise and sleep, give you message and call notifications on the OLED display, and also includes an ADI
photoelectric heart rate
sensor (though you'll need to load up Xiaomi's Mi Fit app to see those stats).
The Nest Protect, for example, uses a
photoelectric split - spectrum
sensor that is considered superior to the ionization
sensor used in many older devices and which is more prone to false alarms.
Backed by 7 - year warranty, First Alert features reliable electrochemical carbon monoxide and
photoelectric smoke
sensors.
Consider using dual
sensor carbon monoxide alarms which contain both ionization and
photoelectric technology in one alarm.
That means it uses both
photoelectric and ionization
sensors to detect smoldering and fast - burning fires.
The Nest Protect goes above and beyond your average combo unit by combining a
photoelectric smoke
sensor, carbon monoxide
sensor, heat
sensor, ambient light
sensor, and humidity
sensors.
