Automatic Fire Detector in Conventional Technology

Detector Series FC650

Technical Data

Description

The FC650 fire detector series are conventional threshold 
alarm detectors that comply with the respective standard of  
the EN 54 standard series and are VdS approved.  
The detectors feature an alarm indicator on the detector head 
that is visible from all angles, and which can be triggered 
with a permanent magnet for test purposes. A detector base 
is provided for mounting and cable connection purposes, 
into which the detector is simply plugged-in via the bayonet 
connection. By connecting an address module to the 
detector base, the relevant detector can be identified by the 
alarm panel during an alarm, should the alarm panel have 
the respective performance features. In this case, the first 
detector that was triggered is detected for each detector 
group. 

Data can be read out of the detector and displayed using the 
Programming Device FI700/PU. In this way, the degree of pol-
lution of the Optical Smoke Detector FC650/O can be read 
out. The detector is screwed into the base of the FI700/PU for 
this purpose, where the required data can be read out.

Application

The FC650 series offers detectors for different applications. 
The Optical Smoke Detector FC650/O operates according 
to the scattered-light principle and is used where smoke is 
expected in case of a fire. The detector is equipped with 
a dust barrier that protects the detector both against dust 
contamination as well as penetration of outside light sources. 
An insect screen prevents intrusion by small insects. 

If factors such as dust, water vapour or cigarette smoke are 
expected to affect the smoke detector operation or very fast 
heat development is expected in the event of a fire, the Heat 
Detectors FC650/TDIFF or FC650/TMAX should be used.  
The Thermal Max. Detector FC650/TMAX triggers if a 
predefined threshold temperature of 78 °C is exceeded.  
The Thermal ROR Detector FC650/TDIFF also reacts to 
fast increase in temperature, which generally occur in the 
event of a fire, and at a temperature of 57 °C or higher. 
The temperature is monitored with so-called measuring 
thermistors.

All detectors are only intended for indoor use in dry ambience.
