Heat Detector - Fixed and Rate of Rise Fire Detector

A heat detector senses heat, not smoke. That makes it the right choice for places where smoke, steam or dust would cause false alarms with a smoke detector, such as kitchens, boiler rooms, garages, generator rooms and dusty workshops. This detector combines two functions. The fixed temperature function raises an alarm when the surrounding temperature reaches a set limit, usually between about 57 and 68 degrees Celsius, depending on the model. The rate-of-rise function raises an alarm when the temperature climbs fast, usually about 8 to 10 degrees Celsius per minute, even if the limit has not been reached. This gives a quick response to a fast growing fire, and it still catches a slow one. A heat detector connects to the fire alarm panel like other detectors, and it often fits the same base. A heat detector protects property, but it does not give early smoke warning, so it is not a good choice for sleeping areas.

Smoke or Heat?

Smoke detectors react earlier, so they are the best choice for offices, bedrooms and corridors. Heat detectors react later, but they are much less likely to give a false alarm in harsh air. In many buildings, both are used: smoke detectors in clean areas and heat detectors in kitchens and plant rooms.

• Mount it on the ceiling, away from direct heat sources such as ovens
• Follow the spacing in the manual
• Connect it to the base terminals and test it
