7251DH High Sensitivity Duct Smoke Detector The System Sensor 7251DH detector is designed for interior duct applications where high velocity, high volume air changes are required for very early warning fire protection. Features •Temperature range 32°F to 100°F (0°C to 38°C) •Air velocity rating from 300 to 4,000 FPM •24 VDC operation •Easy and quick mounting to round or rectangular ducts from 1 ft to 12 ft (0.3 m to 3.7 m) wide •3 year warranty The 7251DH high sensitivity duct smoke detector provides dependable performance for management of fans, blowers, and air conditioning systems by using an intelligent laser smoke sensor residing in an efficient housing design that samples air currents passing through a duct. The twist-in, twist-out 7251 high sensitivity laser smoke detector head allows easy removal for quick cleaning, maintenance, and replacement without removing the duct housing. The laser detector achieves sensitivities as low as 0.02 percent-perfoot by using a laser diode instead of a standard LED light source in the sensing chamber. Many sensitive areas cannot tolerate even small amounts of smoke. This 7251DH detector is designed to protect valuable assets and operations where systems must remain online at all times. Some ideal applications for the 7251DH high sensitivity duct smoke detector include: – Telecommunications switching facilities – Cellular telephone infrastructure – Integrated circuit fabrication facilities – Computer rooms – Clean rooms Agency Listings S911 NFPA 76, Section 8.5.3.1.2.3 Very Early Warning Fire Protection, calls for sensors to be mounted at the return air location for a space in the following instances. (A) “Where stand-alone packed HVAC units are installed, sensors or ports shall be installed where return air is brought back to the unit.” (B) “Sensors or ports shall be installed such that each covers no greater than 0.4 m2 (4 ft2) of the return air opening.” The System Sensor 7251DH high sensitivity duct smoke detector is designed to satisfy NFPA 76 for Very Early Warning Fire Protection. Accessories System Sensor provides system flexibility with a variety of accessories, including two remote test stations, and several different means of visible and audible system annunciation. As with our duct detectors, all duct smoke detector accessories are UL listed.
