Detector is used to detect fire hazards in the interior of residential or commercial buildings. The detector is also suitable for installing in caravan trailers or mobile homes. The product is not designed to be installed in industrial premises.

The detector indicates fire hazard using the built-in LED indicator and acoustic signalling. The detector can also be powered from an external 12 V DC source or from the alarm system control panel and it provides ALARM and TMP outputs. When the detector is used with inserted batteries (3x 1.5 V AA), it can continue operating as a stand-alone detector when the external 12 V power supply is disconnected.

The SD-283ST consists of two independent detectors – an optical smoke detector and a heat detector. The optical smoke detector works on the principle of scattered light. It is very sensitive to large dust particles which are present in dense smoke. It is less sensitive to smaller particles generated by the combustion of liquids such as alcohol. That is why the fire detector also contains a built-in heat detector which has a slower reaction but is much better at detecting fire which generates only a small amount of smoke.

You can find the product by unique code: SD-283ST.
