FireClass Addressable Range
FireClass 460 Addressable Detectors
The FC460 series are addressable multi-sensor fire, smoke and heat
detectors, which can be implemented as several modes and sensitivities by
the FireClass control panels. The FC460 series are designed and approved
to EN54.
The FC460 series detectors provide the latest fire detection technology in an
attractive cost effective package. The FC460 series detectors are supplied
in an extremely robust and reliable fully sealed construction, which has
undergone stringent environmental testing. Electrical contacts are moulded
into the plastic to eliminate any movement.
Detection Modes
The FC460 range of detectors use the FireClass digital protocol to provide
robust and reliable communications to the control panel. A wide range of
cable types can be used and the open topology capability of the system
makes it ideal for the upgrade of older systems whilst reusing the cables to
reduce cost.
Whilst the optical detector can be set to three different sensitivities and
the heat detector programmed in one of three different detection modes,
the photo/heat multisensor has available a total of 14 approved modes/
sensitivities. The photo/heat multisensor can also, simultaneously operate as
two independently addressed detectors using different modes of operation.
For sleeping risk applications the FC460PC triple multisensor will rapidly
detect across the widest range of fire types including very slow smouldering
fires typical of soft furnishings. By selecting resilient mode the FC460PC
triple multisensor provides early detection with unrivalled levels of false
alarm rejection, ideal for hotel applications.
Installation Features
- Standard bases with multiple mounting options simplify installation.
- Unique ‘park’ position for commissioning and service procedures.
- Detector addressing programmed from the Service tool or
FireClass control panels.
- Address flag—fixed to the base to prevent mix ups during service.
- Full range of remote installation and service tools.
- Dirty detector read-out can be viewed on the service tool or panel.
