The System Sensor 5600 Series Mechanical Heat Detectors provide low-cost property protection against fire and non-life-safety installations where smoke detectors are inappropriate.
Notice
For life-safety installations, smoke detectors must be used in lieu of or in addition to heat detectors.
Functions
Detector Labeling
The 5601P has a plain, unlabeled housing and is intended for residential applications. All other models have labeled housings to ensure that the proper detector is being used. Alphanumeric characters identify the activation method (FX for fixed temperature or FX/ROR for combination fixed temperature and rate-of-rise units) and the temperature rating in degrees Fahrenheit and degrees Celsius.
Post-activation Fixed-temperature Indicator
When the detector is activated, the collector drops from the unit. This allows easy identification of all units in alarm.
uPost-activation indicator to easily identify units in alarm
uMultiple configurations satisfy a broad range of installations
uBroad range of back box mounting options
uReversible mounting bracket for surface-mount or flush mount installations
Notice
The fixed-temperature sensors cannot be reset so they are not testable. The rate-of-rise sensors automatically reset and can be tested if care is taken to avoid exceeding the fixed-temperature setting of the detector.
