Description
The System Sensor 1400 dual-chamber ionization smoke
detector is specifically designed to meet the performance
requirements of fire detection/alarm systems. This detec-
tor uses a state-of-the-art unipolar sensing chamber. The
detector is designed to provide open area detection and is
compatible with FCI fire alarm control panels. The detec-
tor operation and sensitivity can be tested in place.
The detector has an LED which flashes every ten seconds
indicating that power is being applied to the detector. The
LED lights steadily when the detector is in alarm. A re-
mote LED annunciator is available as an optional acces-
sory.
The 1400 detector includes a tamper-resistant feature
that, when used, prevents removal of the detector without
the use of a tool.
Sensitivity testing is performed by inserting a tool into the
recessed test switch opening.
Field metering of detector sensitivity may be performed
with the aid of a voltmeter and test kit MOD 400R.
