GE Security Fire Alarm Detectors and Modules

When choosing smoke detectors make sure they go with the system manufacturer you have chosen. For example if you are buying a GE Security Fireworx system then buy detectors that are listed under GE Security Fireworx header.

GE Security Fireworx Addressable Smoke Detectors

FX-PD

Smoke Detector Head, FireworX intelligent addressable, photo, requires B4U Series base

This intelligent analog device uses an optical sensing chamber to detect smoke. The detector analyzes data gathered by the sensor to determine when an alarm is initiated. The detector continuously adjusts its sensitivity based on fluctuating environmental conditions such as the presence of dirt, smoke, humidity, or changes in temperature, and notifies the loop controller of any changes in sensor sensitivity. When the detector approaches its preset sensitivity threshold, it issues a dirty sensor warning, allowing enough of a margin for maintenance personnel to clean the detector before it goes into trouble condition.

Standard Features

Optical, heat, and multisensor models available

Field replaceable optical chamber

Highly stable design

Compatible standard, relay, isolator, and audible bases

Bases mount to standard North American two-gang or 4 square

electrical boxes

Twist-and-lock installation

At-a-glance alarm indication

Tamper-resistant feature

Self diagnostic capability with on-board storage of results

Optical detectors feature automatic rate compensated sensitivity adjustment, as well as dirty sensor warnings

Manufactured to strict international ISO 9001 standards

Assembled using surface mount technology for RF resistance

Conformally coated components resist dust and humidity

Automatic detector test

Low Profi le design

FX-HD

Heat Detector Head, FireworX intelligent addressable, fixed, requires B4U Series base

This intelligent analog device provides a 135°F (57°C) fixed-temperature heat sensor for the detection of heat due to fire. The heat sensor monitors the temperature of the air and determines whether an alarm should be initiated. The FX-HD is capable of performing comprehensive self-diagnostics and storing the results.

FX-PDD

Duct Smoke Detector, FireworX intelligent addressable, photo, rotary dials

The FX-PDD features a unique design that speeds installation and simplifies maintenance. Removable dust filters, conformally coated circuit boards, and optional water-resistant gaskets keep contaminants away from components, ensuring years of trouble-free service. When cleaning is required, the assemblies come apart easily and snap back together in seconds. The duct smoke detector’s primary purpose is to provide early warning of an impending fire and shut down the HVAC unit in order to prevent smoke from circulating throughout the building. The duct smoke detector is designed for use in duct applications where temperatures can exceed standard detector capabilities.

Standard Features

Less than 2 deep for easy installation and applications where space is tight
32 to 120 °F (0 to 50 °C) operating range with 100 ft/min. to 4,000 ft/min air velocity rating assures reliability under harsh environmental conditions
Status LEDs remain visible through clear assembly cover
Cover monitor switch for added security
Standard sampling tube spacing for easy drop-in migration from other detectors
Sampling tube can be installed with or without the cover in place and can be rotated in 45-degree increments to ensure proper alignment with duct airflow
15.2 to 19.95 Vdc operation
Magnet-activated test switch
One Form C auxiliary alarm relay for controlling ancillary equipment (e.g., HVAC controls)
No special tools required for easy access to field connections
Environmental compensation with differential sensing for reliable, stable, and drift-free sensitivity
Wide 0.79% to 2.46% obscuration/ft. smoke sensitivity
Identification of dirty or defective detectors
