The Tyco 601H-R (516.600.003) is a conventional rate-of-rise heat detector from the Tyco Series 600 range. It uses two networked thermistors to respond to both the absolute temperature and the rate of temperature increase, making it suitable for areas where smoke detectors may be prone to unwanted alarms.
Key Features
- Rate-of-rise (R-o-R) heat detection.
- Dual thermistor configuration for fast temperature response.
- Responds to both temperature level and temperature change.
- Suitable where smoke detectors are unsuitable because of dust, smoke, steam or other environmental conditions.
- Integral LED alarm indication.
- Compatible with Tyco Series 600 conventional detector bases.
- Available in a dedicated marine version for shipboard applications.
