GE HEAT DETECTOR, 194 DEGREE F FIXED/RATE OF RISE

COMBINATION RATE-OF RISE AND FIXED TEMPERATURE DETECTION

The GE Heat Detector is combination rate-of-rise and fixed temperature with a UL Temperature Rating of 194° F (90°C).

RATE-OF-RISE: A temperature increase at the sensor of 15°F (9°C) or more per minute activates the rate-of-rise feature. This closes the contacts in the sensor to transmit the alarm condition to the fire alarm control panel. When the rate-of-rise element alone has been activated, the sensor is self-restoring.

FIXED TEMPERATURE: If the temperature of the center disk rises to the sensor’s rated temperature, the fixed temperature element activates. This closes contacts in the sensor and transmits an alarm condition to the fire alarm control panel. The fixed temperature element is non-restorable and, when activated, the detector must be replaced. The need for replacement is indicated when the center disk has fallen free from the detector .

Features

• UL listed for 50 ft. (15.2m) spacing
• Single pole — normally open contact
• Low profile with mounting plate
• Pure white finish
• Mounting flexibility with screw terminals
• Easy twist-on installation
• On-site testing of rate-of-rise feature
• Positive operating indication — for fixed temperature element

FIRE AND LIFE SAFETY

Security and Life Safety concerns have never been more prevalent than in the recent past. Fire detection continues to be a baseline safety necessity. GE Security offers the newest technology available on the market today. You can choose devices that project infrared beams to detect smoke or use sophisticated electronic heat sensors. GE Security also offers self-diagnosing equipment that lets you know ahead of time when the product needs maintenance or repair. Rely on fire detection equipment that can be adapted to the individual requirements that you need – and that can be easily upgraded or expanded if the need arises.

* Maximum detector coverage has been determined by UL to provide detection time equal to sprinkler devices spaced at 10 ft (3.05m) intervals on a smooth ceiling 15 feet 9 inches (4.8m) high. Higher ceilings may adversely affect detection time. Earlier detection may be obtained by reducing the spacing between sensors.
