Electric fire detection switches with thermal glass bulb for air duct
Fire detection in air ducts. This device operates electrical contacts for remote alarm and simultaneous control of electrical servo-controls such as electric cylinders, electric motors or solenoids, for opening or closing air conditioning dampers.
Description
Applications
Fire detection in air ducts. This device operates electrical contacts for remote alarm and simultaneous control of electrical servo-controls such as electric cylinders, electric motors or solenoids, for opening or closing air conditioning dampers.
Main Features
Thermal sensitive part: Thermo-breakable bulb Operation: The break of the bulb activates, by means of a pusher, an electric switch.
Mounting: Enclosure with stainless steel bracket for mounting on air duct wall, with sensing element located
inside the air flow.
Electrical contact: Double snap action contact with two independent circuits, one normally open and the other normally closed. Total contact spacing is larger than 3mm, providing full disconnection upon IEC standards.
Electrical rating: 16A (4A) 250VAC; 10A (1A) 400VAC; 4A (100mA) 24 and 48VDC. Compatible with electric door magnets in 24V and 48V, 500 N.
(Version with gold plated contacts for low level electronic circuits available on request).
Enclosure: 70 x 80 x 40mm in UV resistant black PA66, with captive lid screws in stainless steel.
- Flammability: UL94V0 and GWFI 960°C.
- Deformation temperature under load: 225°C. (ISO 75-2, 1.8 MPa).
- Ambient temperature class T150°C.
- Resistance to corrosion better than 1000 hours in salt spray fog at 5%.
- Ingress resistance: The highest class, IP69K (washable at high pressure hot water cleaner).
- Impact resistance: The highest class, IK10 (except stainless steel support for temperature-sensitive parts and glass bulbs).
Electrical connection: On screw terminal block, 7 terminals 2.5mm². Shipped with a 3-way shunt and a 2-way shunt, allowing different contact and connection arrangement solutions. Cable outlet by two M16 cable glands.
Maintenance:
- Easy replacement of the temperature-sensitive
- A test button (option) accessible from the outside allows to check instantly the operation of the switch without any disassembly or opening.
- The enclosure has holes for the installation of seals preventing unauthorized opening.
Visualization: Optional 230 V, 24V or 48V pilot light. This pilot light can be used to visualize the presence of voltage on the line, a critical parameter for “contact closes on fire” detection systems.
Other options: Customization and customer labelling. Output by a single cable gland.
