smoke sensing. Seven levels of sensitivity are available
for each individual sensor, ranging from 0.2% to 3.7% per
foot of smoke obscuration. Sensitivities of 0.2%, 0.5%,
and 1% are for special applications in clean areas.
Standard sensitivities are 1.5%, 2.0%, 2.5%, 3.0%, and
3.7%. Application type and sensitivity are selected and
then monitored at the fire alarm control panel.*
The sensor head design provides 360° smoke entry for
optimum response to smoke from any direction. Due to its

Sensor locations should be determined only after careful
consideration of the physical layout and contents of the
area to be protected. Refer to NFPA 72, the National Fire
4098-9714 Photoelectric Sensor with Base Alarm and Signaling Code. On smooth ceilings, smoke
sensor spacing of 30 ft (9.1 m) may be used as a guide.*
4098-9733 and 4098-9734 Heat Sensors * For detailed application information including sensitivity
selection, refer to Installation Instructions 574-709.
TrueAlarm heat sensors are self-restoring and provide rate
compensated, fixed temperature sensing, selectable with
or without rate-of-rise temperature sensing. Due to its
small thermal mass, the sensor accurately and quickly
measures the local temperature for analysis at the fire
alarm control panel.
