Fireclass 516.054.011.YFC MR601TEx Conventional High-Performance Optical Smoke Detector
Fireclass 516.054.011.YFC MR601TEx Conventional High-Performance Optical Smoke DetectorThe MR601TEx detectors react to the whole range of fire products from slow smouldering fires producing visible particles to open flaming fires producing large numbers of very hot smaller sized aerosols. It combines optical and heat detector technology to detect clear burning fire products which hitherto could only be easily detected by ion-chamber detectors.For normal ambient conditions the high-performance optical detector behaves as a normal optical detector. Only when a rapid rise in temperature is detected does the sensitivity of the detector increase and the presence of smoke will confirm a fire condition which will be transmitted as an alarm level.The MR601TEX overcomes the slower response of optical detectors to hot burning fires by increasing the sensitivity of the optical detector when it is associated with a rapid change in temperature. In this way it is intended to become a detector which will suit some of the risks currently covered by ion chamber detectors. Smoke detectors will not detect burning alcohol or other clean burning liquids which do not generate smoke particles.The MR601TEx detector is designed to comply with EN 50 014 and EN 50 020 for intrinsically safe apparatus and is certified to ATEX Code Ex II 1G and Cenelec Code EEx ia IIC T5.Key FeaturesIntelligent Universal SmokeHeatCO detectorLow profile discreet and unobtrusiveSuperior performance and reliabilityDesigned for fast easy installationOptional locking kitMay be used in systems that meet BS5839 Pt 1Integral and remote alarm LEDCertified to ATEX Ex II 1GD and Cenelec Ex ia IIC T5Ex iaD 20 T100oCComplies to EN54-7 for Smoke Detectors and EN54-5 for Heat Detectors
