Description

The System Sensor 1451 ionization type smoke detectors
are specifically designed to meet the performance require-
ments of fire detection and fire alarm systems. The 1451
ionization detector uses a state-of-the-art, dual unipolar
sensing chamber. The detector is designed to provide
open area detection and when installed in a two-wire base
is compatible with Gamewell-FCI fire alarm control panels.
The detectors operation and sensitivity can be tested in
place.

The 1451 detector is built of plug-in construction and plugs
into the same base as the 2451 Series photoelectronic
smoke detectors, making both models interchangeable.
The bases are available for two-wire, four-wire, and 120
VAC four wire operation.

Two visible LEDs on each detector flash approximately
every ten seconds indicating that power is being applied to
the detector. The LEDs light steadily when the detector is
in alarm. A remote LED annunciator is available as an
optional accessory.

The 1451 detector is Listed for use inside ducts up to a
velocity of 1,200 FPM.

Sensitivity testing is performed by placing a test magnet
against the cover. The LED on the detector should light
within 5 seconds.

Field metering of detector sensitivity may be performed
with the aid of a voltmeter and Test Kit, MOD 400R.
