Low profile analog sensors

December 2002 Fire & Safety

Ziton's 700 series of analog sensors is among the slimmest low profile analog sensors. The system automatically compensates for calibration changes caused by dirt, temperature, humidity, voltage fluctuations and long term contamination.

Sensor sensitivity can be varied through four preset levels, either manually or automatically on a timed basis. Sensors automatically advise when they require maintenance.

Every sensor does a complete self-test at regular intervals and returns a test value to the control unit. If the test value is incorrect or not received, the control unit immediately identifies the sensor as faulty.

Built-in test features allow one person to test every sensor in the system.

Sensors plug into either a common surface mount or a recessed base by means of a twist-lock action. An optional locking device is provided to prevent unauthorised removal from the base.
