Description

The Gamewell-FCI Velociti® Series, analog addressable plug-in smoke sensors with integral communication provide features that surpass conventional sensors. Sensitivity can be programmed in the control panel software, and is continuously monitored and reported to the panel. Point ID capability allows each sensor’s address to be set, providing exact locations for selective maintenance when the chamber contamination reaches an unacceptable level.

The ASD-PL2F photoelectric sensor’s unique optical sensing chamber is engineered to sense smoke produced by a wide range of combustion sources. Dual electronic thermistors add 135°F (57°C) fixed-temperature thermal sensing on the ASD-PTL2F model.

The Velociti® Series use a communication protocol that substantially increases the speed of communication between the sensors and certain Gamewell-FCI analog addressable fire alarm controls. These devices operate in a grouped fashion. If one of the devices in the group has a status change, the panel’s microprocessor stops the group poll and concentrates on the single device. The net effect is a response speed up to five times greater than earlier designs.
