Over the years, heat detectors have evolved so that their time of detection is shortened and when used properly, can provide detection in areas that smoke detectors cannot venture into.
The new detectors feature updated optical sensors and detection algorithms, including encryption technology for more secure communication with 2GIG eSeries security panels.
Here are some critical components dealers and integrators should always keep in mind when designing an effective smoke and heat detection system.
Honeywell says the redesigned line offers improved system reliability against false alarms, expanded color offerings and modern design.
Just as in real estate it’s all about location, the same can be said for heat detectors. Knowing the rules, best practices and insider tips to properly space these devices helps ensure they deliver system alerts as intended.
Though early fire detection is usually associated with smoke detectors, there are applications where a heat detector further enhances the preservation of property and life safety. Learn about the different types of heat detectors, and pick up some system design and installation pointers.
