Simplex 631-114 — replacement air baffle for Simplex air duct smoke detector housings, listed here against Simplex baffle 4098-9826.
A duct housing samples air from a moving air stream through an inlet tube and returns it through an exhaust tube. The baffle clips into a slot in the housing cover and deflects that air across the sensing chamber, developing the pressure differential the housing needs to draw a representative sample. Simplex is explicit that a baffle must be fitted in every duct housing.
- Simplex furnishes baffle 4098-9826 with the housing originally
- Snaps into the baffle slot inside the duct housing cover
- Specified for the 4098-9601 detector or the 4098-9714 photo smoke sensor

Check the housing generation before ordering. The later 4098-9685, 4098-9688, 4098-9755 and 4098-9756 duct units use a stationary built-in baffle and take no loose baffle at all. It is also not 631-033, the duct detector cover. No Simplex document we obtained ties service number 631-114 to catalogue number 4098-9826, so check the number marked on the part.
