SS-APT Features • Automatically adjusts sensitivity levels without the need for operator intervention or programming. Sensitivity increases with heat. Acclimate™ Multi-Sensor Smoke Detector Low-Profile, Intelligent, Addressable • Microprocessor-based, combination photo and thermal technology. • Addressable-analog communication. Description • Sleek, low-profile design. Gamewell’s SS-APT Acclimate™ detector is an intelligent, addressable, multi-sensing, lowprofile detector designed for use with any 600 series SmartScanTM SLC panel. 6937pho1.jpg The Acclimate™ detector uses a combination of photoelectric and SS-APT in SS-B6 base thermal sensing technologies that are designed to increase immunity to false alarms. Unlike traditional intelligent detectors, the Acclimate™ detector has a microprocessor in the detector head that processes alarm data. As a result, the Acclimate™ detector adjusts its sensitivity automatically, without operator intervention or control panel programming. Areas where the Acclimate™ detector is especially useful include office complexes, schools, college campuses, manufacturing and industrial facilities, and anywhere else the use of a particular area may change. The Acclimate™ detector automatically adjusts its sensitivity to acclimate itself to the environment. Installation • Sleek, low-profile design. • Rotary, decimal addressing (1 – 99). • Addresses can be viewed and changed without the need for electronic programmers. • Dual bi-color LED design provides 360° viewing angle. • Built-in tamper-resistant feature. • Sealed against back pressure. • Constructed of off-white Bayblend®, designed to commercial standards, and offers an attractive appearance. • 94-5V plastic flammability rating. • SEMS screws for wiring of the separate base. • Several base options, including relay, isolator, and sounder. • Remote test feature from the panel. The SS-APT plug-in detector uses a separate base to simplify installation, service, and maintenance. A special tool allows maintenance personnel to plug-in and remove detectors without using a ladder. Mount base on an electrical backbox at least 1.5" (3.81 cm) deep. Suitable mounting back boxes include: • 4.0" (10.16 cm) square box. • 3.5" (8.89 cm) or 4.0" (10.16 cm) octagonal box. • Built-in functional test switch activated by external magnet. • Capable of heat-only alarm mode, enabled by a special command from the panel. Smoke alarms are ignored. • Low-temperature signal at 45°F +/– 10°F (7.22°C +/– 5.54°C). • Single-gang box (except for relay or isolator base). • With B501BH or B501BHT base, use a 4.0" (10.16 cm) square box. • With B224RB or B224BI base, use a 3.5" (8.89 cm) octagonal box, or a 4.0" (10.16 cm) octagonal or square box. NOTES: 1) Because of the inherent supervision provided by the SLC loop, endof-line resistors are not required. Wiring “T-taps” or branches are permitted for Style 4 (Class “B”) wiring. 2) When using relay or sounder bases, consult SS-LI data sheet for device limitations between isolator modules and isolator bases. APPLICATION NOTE: The SS-APT detector has the unique ability to adjust sensitivity according to the environment, based on heat and smoke levels. Avoid installing these detectors in locations that are susceptible to rapid and high temperature changes. An example of an incorrect application would be near or in line with the output of a self-contained heater. DETECTOR SPACING: Gamewell recommends spacing detectors in compliance with NFPA 72. In low airflow applications with smooth ceilings, space detectors 30 feet (9.144 m). For specific information regarding detector spacing, placement, and special applications, refer to NFPA 72.
