- Abstract
- The objective of the program was to utilize ultraviolet (UV) radiation technology to provide advanced means of detecting fire hazards more reliably and more rapidly than current thermally activated continuous cable type system. This volume, Volume 2, of three volumes provides detailed information on the development, circuit/software design and qualification testing of the system component.
