Abstract: A fire detector provided with a warning system, a reference element and an analysis element whose impedance varies in the presence of a rise of temperature and/or radiation and/or combustion gas, said reference and analysis elements being connected in series or in parallel and constituting two adjacent arms of a Wheatstone bridge assembly. The other two arms are constituted by resistors if necessary variable while the measuring diagonal or bridge, joins, either the common connecting points of the resistors and said elements, or respectively the ends of the detector elements. This device is distinguished in that the two ends of the bridge (X and Y) are connected respectively to the two inputs of two voltage comparators (A.sub.1 and A.sub.2), mounted in parallel and in reverse, each connected to a warning system (S.sub.1, S.sub.
