<div>Unless I am missing something, in most jurisdictions, this is determined entirely by the applicable building and/or fire code(s). Cleanroom management generally have no say in the matter.

<div class="">Hi!<br class="">
<br class="">
We had a fire recently inside the cleanroom and our smoke detectors did not give any warning even though the fire was burning for ~5min before it was put out. We currently have smoke detectors, a VESDA system installed inside the room with 3 detectors, one
at the plenum level, one in the room and one under the raised floor (room is square shaped with ~700 sq.ft area, Class 1000).<br class="">
<br class="">
We were wondering how the other fabs handle these kind of situations. What is the ideal distance between smoke detectors and how do you ensure that the smoke is driven over the detectors no matter what the location of the fire is.<br class="">
<br class="">
Please let us know your thoughts on this matter.<br class="">
<br class="">
Thanks and regards,<br class="">
<br class="">
