The Simplex 4098-9714 TrueAlarm Photoelectric Sensor uses light-scattering detection to identify smoke particulates associated with combustion. As an addressable analog device, the 4098-9714 continuously transmits a raw analog smoke level to the fire alarm control panel, which applies alarm and pre-alarm thresholds in software. The panel’s drift compensation algorithm automatically adjusts the sensor’s baseline reading over time, reducing nuisance alarms from dust accumulation without masking actual smoke conditions. Sensor dimensions are 4″ × 4″ × 1″; weight is 0.10 lbs. Catalog number 0742444CN.
Key Features
- Photoelectric (light-scattering) smoke detection principle
- Analog addressable — reports continuous smoke level to panel, not just alarm/no-alarm
- Panel-based drift compensation reduces maintenance calls from dust buildup
- Pre-alarm and alarm thresholds configurable at the panel
- Communicates over IDNet and MAPNET II addressable SLC protocols
- Plug-in mounting to 4098-9792 sensor base — no tools needed for sensor swap
- UL 268 and ULC-S529 listed
- Ideal for schools, hospitals, commercial high-rise, and institutional applications
