Model Number:
ADH
Electrical Rating:
120 VAC, 60 HZ, 80mA, max, 9 volt battery back-up
Interconnect Quantity:
18 alarms maximum, no more than 12 can be smoke
alarms
U.L. Alarm Point temperature:
58°C (135°F) fixed temperature
U.L. Maximum ambient
temperature at unit:
38°C (100°F)
Operating temperature:
-23°C to 70°C (-10°F to 158°F)
U.L. Recommended coverage: 232 sq.m. (2500 sq.ft) See Note A.
U.L. Recommended spacing:
15 meters (50 feet)
Maximum distance from wall:
7.5 meters (25 feet) See Note B
NOTE A:
Maximum alarm coverage has been determined by UL to provide detection time
equal to sprinkler devices spaced at 3 meter (10 foot) intervals (9.25 sq m/100 sq ft area) on
a smooth ceiling 4.8 meters (15.75 feet) high. Higher ceilings can adversely affect detection
time. In some instances, earlier detection may be obtained by reducing the distance
between detectors. See the latest edition of the NFPA 72E, Automatic Fire Detectors.
NOTE B:
Maximum distance is measured from any wall partition or ceiling projection
extending down more than 30.5 cm (12 in).
HEAT ALARM FEATURES
• This heat alarm is powered by 120V AC and a 9-volt battery back-up
source. AC/DC heat alarms offer added protection in the event of a
power failure or a drained battery.
• Unique power connector prevents interconnection with incompatible
heat alarms, smoke alarms, or security systems.
• This heat alarm is interconnectable to a maximum of 18 alarms, no more
than 12 of which can be smoke alarms. This alarm can be interconnect-
ed only with Firex devices. It is interconnectable with Firex models ADH
(5700 Series), G-6 (406 Series), G-18 (418 Series), PG (484 Series), ADC
(4518 Series), FADC (4618 / 5000 Series), TPCI (4671 Series), COE
(10000 Series), COEA (10400 Series), FADCM (12000 Series), and GCM
(12400 Series). It is NOT interconnectable with the Firex model FXW-R
(428 Series).
• Optional tamper-resist feature.
• Unique “battery missing” lockout – heat alarm will not attach to the
mounting bracket if a battery is not in the battery pocket.
• I m p roperly connected or weak battery signal – heat alarm will sound a
s h o rt beep once a minute if the battery is weak or improperly connected.
• Green LED indicates that the heat alarm is receiving AC power, working
under normal operation, or in alarm.
• Loud alarm horn—85 decibels at 3 meters (10 feet)—sounds to alert you
to an emergency.
• Test button checks heat alarm operation.

THESE INSTRUCTIONS
W A R N I N G
•
This heat alarm requires constant 120-volt, AC power AND a work-
ing 9-volt battery to operate properly.
This heat alarm WILL NOT work
if AC power is not connected, has failed, or has been interrupted for any
reason AND if the battery is removed, drained or improperly connected.
DO NOT use any other kind of battery except as specified in this manu-
al. DO NOT connect this heat alarm to any smoke alarm, heat alarm, or
auxiliary device, except those listed in this manual.
•
The Push-to-Test button accurately tests all heat alarm functions.
For temperatures that are below -23°C (-10°F) use a hand held hair dryer
and blow hot air into heat alarm to test. DO NOT use any other test
method.
Test heat alarm weekly to ensure proper operation.
•
This heat alarm should be installed only by a licensed, qualified
electrician.
Observe and follow all local and national
electrical and

F
or greater,
and are intended to be used as supplements to smoke alarms by pro v i d i n g
early warning. See the IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION section of this
manual.
Printed information describing proper installation, operation, testing,
