Simplex 4098-9714 Photoelectric Smoke and Heat Sensor – White, NEMA 1 Rated
The Simplex 4098-9714 TrueAlarm photoelectric smoke detector is an advanced addressable smoke detector engineered for dependable performance in commercial and industrial environments. This intelligent fire alarm smoke detector combines photoelectric smoke sensing with heat detection to deliver accurate, early warning protection in mission-critical facilities.
Designed as a high-performance commercial smoke detector and industrial smoke detector, this unit uses a stable, pulsed LED light source and precision silicon photodiode receiver. This technology allows the photoelectric fire detector to accurately detects smoke particles produced by smoldering fires, which often generate more smoke than flame in early stages.
This intelligent detector features three user-selectable sensitivity settings (0.2%, 0.5%, and 1% per foot) for special applications, along with a standard sensitivity range of 1.25% to 3.1% per foot. The connected fire alarm control unit applies an adaptive algorithm that continuously monitors environmental conditions to maintain proper sensitivity and minimize nuisance alarms caused by dust or environmental changes.
With a NEMA 1 rated enclosure, sleek white design, and durable construction, this fire safety smoke detector is ideal for office buildings, healthcare facilities, schools, warehouses, and manufacturing plants. As part of a complete fire alarm system, it works seamlessly with compatible panels and backup battery systems to ensure continuous protection—even during power outages.
FAQ
