The pulse width of a light reception pulse signal a from a light receiving device is detected, and the smoke density is detected based on a total pulse width of pulse widths per unit time period. Alternatively, the smoke density may be detected based on an integrated value of the light reception pulse signal a from the light receiving device per unit time period. Even if the flow rate of the sucked air is varied, the total light reception pulse width value per unit time period is not varied, so that the smoke density can be accurately detected. |
