ABSTRACT:
Smoke is detected by a surface ionization effect on a heated wire filament disposed opposite a negative ion collector electrode. Current flow between the wire and the electrode increases in the presence of smoke. The increase is probably attributable to surface ionization of smoke particles on the heated wire.
