      High-Performance Heat Detector: Reliable Thermal Fire Detection

      Introducing our state-of-the-art Heat Detector, engineered for rapid and reliable fire detection in environments where traditional smoke detectors might be impractical or prone to false alarms. This advanced thermal sensor provides an essential layer of fire safety, designed to respond swiftly to dangerous temperature increases, safeguarding lives and property without nuisance alarms.

      Our Heat Detector is ideal for challenging spaces that experience normal levels of smoke, dust, or humidity, ensuring your fire alarm system responds only when a genuine thermal threat is present.

      Key Features

      • Dual Sensing Technology: Integrates both Fixed Temperature and Rate-of-Rise detection for comprehensive fire threat assessment. This means it detects both slow, smoldering fires and fast-developing, high-heat blazes.
      • High Reliability & Accuracy: Minimizes false alarms caused by everyday activities (like cooking fumes, steam, or dust) while ensuring swift and precise response to actual thermal events.
      • Robust Construction: Designed with high-quality, durable materials, offering long-term performance and resistance to environmental factors.
      • Wide Operating Temperature Range: Operates effectively across varying ambient conditions, from cold storage to warm utility rooms.
      • Easy Installation & Integration: Simple two-wire mounting and seamless compatibility with most conventional fire alarm control panels (FACP).
      • Aesthetic & Low-Profile Design: Blends discreetly into various architectural settings without being obtrusive.
      • Built-in Test Functionality: Simplifies routine maintenance and system checks, ensuring the detector is always operational.
      • Alarm Indicator: Features a clear, latching red LED indicator for easy identification of the alarm source.

      How It Works

      This advanced heat detector utilizes a sophisticated combination of two primary detection methods to provide comprehensive thermal protection:

      • Fixed Temperature Detection: Triggers an alarm when the ambient temperature at the detector's location reaches a pre-set threshold (e.g., 57°C / 135°F or 77°C / 170°F). This method is crucial for detecting slow-burning fires that steadily increase ambient temperature.
      • Rate-of-Rise Detection: Activates an alarm if the temperature increases by a specific amount within a short period (e.g., 8.3°C / 15°F per minute), even if the fixed temperature threshold hasn't yet been reached. This mechanism is vital for rapidly developing fires that produce a sudden, sharp spike in heat.

      By combining these two principles, our detector offers superior responsiveness to a broader spectrum of fire types.

      Why Choose Our Heat Detector?

      • Uncompromised Safety: Provides critical early warning in environments unsuitable for smoke detection, actively protecting lives and assets.
      • Reduced False Alarms: Specifically engineered to ignore nuisances like steam, dust, or cooking fumes, ensuring your fire alarm system responds only when a genuine threat is present, reducing operational disruption.
      • Versatile Application: The ideal choice for a wide array of commercial, industrial, and specialized residential settings where other detection methods fall short.
      • Long-Term Reliability: Engineered for durability and consistent performance, minimizing maintenance requirements and maximizing peace of mind.
      • Cost-Effective Protection: A smart and essential investment in your property's overall fire safety infrastructure.

      Ideal Applications

      Our Heat Detector is perfect for environments where smoke detectors are prone to false alarms or where smoke may not be the primary indicator of a fire:

      • Kitchens and Cafeterias: Where cooking fumes and steam are common.
      • Garages and Workshops: Prone to vehicle exhaust, dust, and chemical vapors.
      • Boiler Rooms and Utility Closets: High heat, potential for dust and particles.
      • Dusty Manufacturing Plants and Warehouses: High levels of airborne particulates.
      • Laundry Rooms: Steam and lint often cause nuisance alarms in smoke detectors.
      • Server Rooms: Where sensitive equipment might be damaged by smoke prematurely, or where the initial stages of equipment failure manifest as heat.
      • Attics and Crawl Spaces: Areas prone to extreme temperature fluctuations but where fire often starts with heat buildup.
      • Marine Vessels: Suitable for engine rooms and galleys.
