Overview
The TX-6010-01-1 supervised photoelectric smoke alarms are
self-diagnostic Learn Mode wireless sensors with a 319.5MHz
transmitter, built-in sounder, low battery annunciation, diagnostic/
status LED, and integrated fixed temperature and rate-of-rise heat
sensors. Each unit will communicate an alarm and trouble condition
to a GE compatible control panel. In addition, the mounting tamper
will send a trouble condition as necessary.
The TX Series photoelectric smoke alarms continually monitor
operational status and provide a visual trouble condition if they drift
out of the sensitivity range or fail internal diagnostics.
The series meets NFPA 72 field sensitivity testing requirements
without the need for external meters. The alarm sensitivity level can
be determined at the unit.
Another feature is built-in drift compensation that allows the alarm
to adjust sensitivity automatically as it becomes dirty over time. The
drift compensation feature dramatically increases the time between
cleaning, as well as reducing the chance of a nuisance alarm.
A low battery pre-alarm feature sends a signal to the alarm company control station long before the smoke alarm begins its low
battery chirp. This ensures a pro-active response to replace the battery in a timely manner and without the disturbance caused by an
alarm beeping continuously when it nears the end of its life.
