The DH500 AC/DC series duct housing is designed to sample air currents passing through a duct and allows the early detection of developing fire. The DH500 AC/ DC duct housing will accommodate either the intelligent ionisation sensor or the intelligent optical sensor, either of which provides continuous analogue monitoring of the unit’s sensitivity and alarm verification from the panel. When sufficient smoke is sensed, an alarm signal is initiated at the control panel, monitoring the detector, and appropriate action can be taken to shut off fans, and blowers, change over air handling systems, etc. This can prevent the rapid distribution or isolation of toxic smoke and fire gases throughout the areas served by the duct system. The DH500 AC/DC duct detector system features the superior capabilities of an intelligent sensor in a unit that is easy to install and maintain, making this duct detector the new industry standard.
