Potter Detect-A-Fire® Detection and Release Devices

Features Resets itself nothing to replace testable Offers various temperature settings Long lasting stainless steel shell Wide spacing reduces installation cost Factory set Internal contact area hermetically sealed in stainless steel Kidde Fenwal DeTeCT a FIRe units are the many Fire protection Systems These highly reliable have a been a standard of the industry for 65 years thousands of detectors in use controlling the release extinguishants such as clean agents CO2 water or dry In some systems the device is used as an aLaRM the device is used as an aLaRM device to sense detectors have met with wide acceptance they are designed with RaTe COMpeNSaTION and rate of rise types of detectors because the DeTeCT a FIRe detector accurately senses the at precisely the predetermined danger point the system activated temperature detectors must be completely heated alarm temperature and therefore a lag in response time hand are triggered by the rate of increase in ambient and are subject to false alarms caused by transient thermal gradients such as the rush of air from process ovens Specifications Type 300 Stainless steel Cold rolled steel Type 300 steel brass Off white oz key to the unit sensitivity is in the design The outer shell made of a rapidly expanding alloy which closely follows in surrounding air temperature The inner struts are of a lower expanding alloy Designed to resist thermal absorption and sealed inside the shell the struts follow and struts together at the point the unit will trigger the alarm or releasing the extinguishant transient rush of warm air up to 40 may expand the but not enough to trigger the unit By ignoring transient air excursions DeTeCT a FIRe detectors virtually false alarms prevalent with rate of rise devices close actuating the alarm or releasing the agent The will react page 1 OF 4 Electric Signal Company LLC St Louis MO Phone 800 325 3936 www pottersignal com8820045 REv A 1 19Kidde Fenwal Detection and Release
