SS-F Features Filtrex™ Hostile-Area Smoke Head — Analog Addressable Detector with SmartScan™ • High-performance filter removes particulates down to 32 microns (32-micron inner filter and replaceable outer filter). • Air delivery system is separately powered and fully supervised. Description 6346cov.jpg • Analog intelligent communications. Gamewell’s SS-F SmartScan™ smoke detector provides early warning smoke detection in hostile environments where traditional smoke detectors are not practical. Using a small air intake fan and a high-performance replaceable filter, air and smoke are drawn into a photoelectric sensing chamber, while unwanted airborne particulate and water mist are removed. This feature allows the SS-F to operate in difficult applications, such as textile or paper mills, which due to environmental conditions tend to cause nuisance alarms with standard smoke detectors. SS-F Operation Overview Normal Operation — A miniature fan is pulsed on and off under microprocessor control to conserve power, yet provide good smoke response. The system uses two filters (one replaceable) that remove particulates while allowing smoke to pass. Filter Supervision — Periodically, the filter system is tested for blockage using a special thermal airflow sensor. In reasonably clean environments, the filter is expected to last at least as long as the smoke-entry test period required by NFPA 72. In very dirty environments, the filter may need replacement more frequently. Filter Trouble Reporting — If SS-F determines that filter blockage is imminent, a warning trouble is indicated to the panel, followed by a return to normal. 72 hours after this warning, the detector will disconnect, giving a continuous trouble signal. Operation overview diagram: • Outer filter is easily field replaceable. • Tolerant of external air velocity. • Resistant to water vapor in applications where occasional non-direct water spray is performed. • Optional remote LED annunciator. • Rotary DECADE address switches with settings 01-99. • Dual bi-color (red/green) LEDs flash green when Normal and are steady red in Alarm (systems with SmartScan™ only). • Compatible with the Gamewell 602, 610, 632, 654 and 658 FACPs. • Requires auxiliary 24 VDC from system or remote power supply.
