Description
DETECT-A-FIRE detectors are the “heart” of many fire protection systems.
These highly reliable devices have been a standard for over 65 years.
Thousands of these detectors are in use controlling the release of clean agents, CO2, water, or dry chemicals.
DETECT-A-FIRE detectors are rate-compensated for a quicker response.
This provides a unique advantage over both fixed temperature and rate-of-rise types of detectors because
only the DETECT-A-FIRE detector accurately senses the surrounding air temperature regardless of the fire growth rate.
At precisely the pre-determined danger point, the system is activated.
The DETECT-A-FIRE is designed with a rugged outer shell and easy to install coupling and wire leads.
It is self resetting and intrinsically safe with listed barriers.
DETECT-A-FIRE® (D-A-F) detectors are the “heart” of many fire protection systems.
The highly reliable D-A-F has been the standard for over 75 years.
The D-A-F is used for signaling overheat or fire conditions.
In the vast majority of applications, the D-A-F provides the initial heat sensing that is
used to activate suppression systems using clean agent, CO2, inert gases, wet or dry chemicals or water.
D-A-F detectors are widely accepted, because they are designed with rate compensation.
This provides a unique advantage over both fixed temperature and rate-of-rise types of detectors because
the D-A-F detector accurately senses the surrounding air temperature regardless of the fire growth rate.
At the pre-determined set point, the system is activated.
Fixed temperature detectors must be completely heated to alarm temperature and therefore a lag in response time may occur with a fast rate fire.
Rate-of-rise devices, on the other hand, are triggered by the rate of increase in ambient temperature and
are subject to false alarms caused by harmless, transient thermal gradients such as the rush of warm air from process ovens.
The key to the detector’s sensitivity is in the design (Figure 1).
The outer shell is made of a rapidly expanding alloy which closely follows changes in surrounding air temperature.
The inner struts are made of a slower expanding alloy.
Designed to resist thermal energy absorption and sealed inside the shell, the struts follow temperature changes more slowly.
A slow rate fire (Figure 2) will heat the shell and struts together.
At the “set point”, the detector will trigger, actuating the alarm or releasing the extinguishant.
A transient rush of warm air up to 40°F/min.
may expand the shell, while not triggering the detector.
By ignoring transient warm air excursions, the D-A-F detector virtually eliminates false alarms prevalent with rate-of-rise devices.
If a fast rate fire (Figure 3) starts, the shell will expand rapidly.
The struts will close, actuating the alarm and/or releasing the agent.
The faster the fire rate of growth, the sooner the D-A-F detector will react.
