General
Each model is a normally open device designed especially for re detection and alarm systems. These rate compensation type detectors are available in either 135 F. or 194 F. ratings. All four basic models are self restoring, hermetically sealed, shock and corrosion resistant, and are tamper proof. Refer to NFPA STANDARD 72, STANDARD FOR AUTOMATIC FIRE DETECTORS for application requirements, testing and maintenance.
Principal of Operation
All models operate on the principles of a rate compensation detector. The detector consists of a high expansion aluminum tube which encases two insulation struts with opposing open constant points (see cut-away view). The high expansion sensing shell and the expansion struts have a different coefcient of expansion. A slow rate of temperature rise allows the heat to penetrate the inner expansion struts. Therefore, the tubular shell and the struts expand slowly until the total device has been heated to its rated temperature level of 135 F./194F. At this point, the silver contact points close which initiates the alarm. When subjected to a rapid rate temperature rise there is not as much time for heat to penetrate the inner strut. The rapid lengthening of the shell allows the struts to come together at a lower level which compensates for thermal lag inherent in conventional fixed temperature detectors. When the surrounding air temperatures goes below the rated temperature level, the shell contracts which forces contacts to open, thus automatically resetting the detector.

Approvals/Listings
Signaling Listed
Detectors are not directionally effected, can be mounted horizontally or vertically. Detectors have a smooth ceiling UL rating of 50 x 50 (2500 sq. ft.) on 8 to 10 ft. ceilings. Detectors, hub covers, or outlet boxes must never be installed in direct sunlight. Refer to NFPA STANDARD 72 for spacing and other considerations.
