The SDS-72 Extraction Smoke Detection System is an advanced fire detection solution designed for the early identification of smoke in cargo holds, vehicle decks, and enclosed cargo spaces onboard marine vessels. The system continuously extracts air samples through existing CO₂ distribution piping and analyzes them for the presence of smoke, enabling rapid detection of fire hazards before they escalate into critical incidents.
