C4414 Application / Operation:

The C4414 Multi-sensor fire detector incorporates two sensors, one for smoke and one for heat. As well as operating independently, the signals from the two sensors combine to produce a more sensitive response to freely burning fires. For example, when the detector’s heat sensor detects an increase in temperature, it reduces the level at which its smoke sensor will respond. This smoke + heat analysis means that the detector not only provides excellent detection across the widest range of fire types, but also provides very effective false alarm reduction. As a result, the multi-sensor is the most effective all round detector. It is particularly useful in accommodation areas such as student premises, HMOs, sheltered housing blocks, etc., which are much more susceptible to nuisance alarms.
