The CAST Optical Smoke Detector from C-TEC is a high-quality multi-sensor fire detector offering outstanding detection performance at a very competitive price.
Manufactured by C-TEC in the UK.
Third-party certified to EN54-5 and 7 by Intertek (also tested to pr-EN54-29)
Wide 6-33V DC operating voltage.
Two 8mm x 2mm ultra-bright red LED indicating strips offering 360º visibility.
Drift compensation functionality ensures detector sensitivity is automatically calibrated to suit prevailing conditions and/or increased contamination levels.
Incorporates a heat and smoke sensor making it deal for detecting a wide range of fires whilst also reducing false alarms.
Compatible with our ActiV C4408D diode, C4408 non-diode and C4408R relay bases.
Technical Specifications of the CAST Optical Smoke Detector:
Approvals/certifications Certified to EN54-5 & 7 by Intertek (0359-CPR-00183)
Application/operation As well as operating independently, the C4414’s smoke & heat sensors combine to produce a sensitive response to freely burning fires, e.g. when a rise in heat is detected, its smoke response level reduces for improved detection and reduced false alarms
Application temperature 25°C typical, 50°C max
Static response temperature 54°C min, 65°C max
Sensitivity Nominal alarm threshold of 0.16db/m obscuration measured in accordance with EN54-7:2000
