The Simplex 4098-9687 Stand Alone Duct Detector represents a critical component for comprehensive fire detection within commercial HVAC systems. Engineered to provide early smoke detection in ventilation and air handling units, this detector monitors airflow passages to detect potential fire risks before they can spread through building ductwork. Designed for seamless integration with commercial fire alarm infrastructures, the unit delivers reliable performance across diverse environmental conditions.
Utilizing advanced photoelectric sensing technology, the 4098-9687 detector can be installed in ducts with a minimum cross-section of 8 inches square or 18 inches round. Its stand-alone configuration eliminates the requirement for a dedicated fire alarm control panel, offering flexible deployment in various commercial and institutional settings such as office complexes, healthcare facilities, educational institutions, and industrial environments.
The detector’s robust design incorporates a TrueAlarm 4098-9601 photoelectric sensor, providing precise smoke detection with minimal nuisance alarms. Compatible with multiple power configurations, this unit supports 120 VAC, 24 VAC, and 24 VDC power sources, making it adaptable to existing electrical infrastructures.
