How the heat detector works ?
The heat detection is carried out by a thermal probe which permanently
measures the room temperature. The detector analyses the temperature
in 2 simultaneous ways :
→Comparison of the room temperature at a pre-determined thres-
hold and if this threshold is overtake, the detector moves to the
alarm mode, whatever the temperature rise’s speed. This is the
thermostatic mode.
→Computation of the temperature rise’s speed and when the tem-
perature rises according to a predetermined speed, the detector
moves to the alarm mode. This is the rate-of-rise (ROR) mode.
The temperature probe is composed of a negative temperature coef-
ficient (NTC) thermistor at low thermal inertia.
→installation
Mount the base of the detector by fixing it firmly. Connect according
the enclosed wiring diagram, respecting the polarities.
In case you lay a coating such as paint near to the detector, make sure
to protect it against any possible pollution.
Put the control panel into service and proceed to the recommended
tests in the panel user manual. In particular, operate a detection test
with an adequate device (such as a heat detector tester).
→oPeration
In case of detection, the red indicator of the detector turns on and a
signal is sent to the control panel by mean of an overconsumption of
current. The red indicator is on until the reset of the panel.
Proceed to periodical tests on the detector (at least twice a year). These
operations must be performed by a qualified company.
