Manuals Online Smoke and Heat Detectors Applications Bulletin Manuals Online of Signature Series Smoke and Heat Signature Series family of detectors is comprised of a variety of technologies available in various combinations to meet the of the fire protection community The detectors are constructed a white high impact polymer All detectors plug into one of a variety mounting bases or duct housings and feature base locking tabs The below lists the available detector models Series Smoke and Heat Detectors Smoke Detector Smoke Detector Photoelectric Smoke and 135o F 57o Fixed Temperature Heat Detector Ionization Photoelectric and Thermal Type Smoke Detector An F C ambient temperature change in a 1 hour will produce an alarm F 57o C Fixed Temperature Heat Detector 15o F per minute Rate of Rise and F 57o C Fixed Temperature Heat Detector Series smoke and heat detectors are intelligent analog devices that contain their own microprocessors which allow to make alarm decisions based on the information collected by sensors Depending on the detector decisions may be based on the gathered by up to three independent sensing elements Signature Series detectors feature electronic addressing The of each detector is assigned electronically via the Signature Data Entry Program and stored in the detector on board No addressing switches are used Series detectors provide two LEDs which indicate the condition In normal condition the network control panel background supervision indicated by the flashing green LED alarm condition is indicated by the flashing red LED In the event of loss of communication in some systems the detector operates in mode as indicated by the steady operation of both LEDs an alarm condition as long as it maintains circuit continuity to control panel Series detectors are capable of performing and storing a range of self diagnostic measurements Information a detector hours of operation last maintenance date values and number of recorded alarms and troubles may be in EEPROM of the detector Smoke and Heat Detectors Applications Bulletin Manuals Online sensing technologies are incorporated into SIGA PHS SIGA and SIGA HRS detectors which makes them suitable for a wide of applications The tables in the Heat Detector Applications of this docum
