Publication number: 20140224969Abstract: A detector has a frame, a window for allowing radiation to enter, outlook sensors for sensing radiation, a unit for processing outlook sensor signals and outlook mirrors that are shaped and mounted in the frame for reflecting radiation from outside detection zones onto the outlook sensor, some of which are mounted near the window such that they face each other. When the detector is installed and operated as intended, the perpendicular to the inner window surface in its centroid of the perpendicular projections of the mirror surfaces of the near-mounted mutually-facing outlook mirrors onto the inner window surface intersects the horizontal plane at floor level outside. Any sector of the horizontal plane around said perpendicular without the detection zones of the near-mounted mutually-facing outlook mirrors extends over 160° at most.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 10, 2014Publication date: August 14, 2014Applicant: SIEMENS ABInventors: Simon Daniel FISCHER, Kurt MUELLER
