Heat detector

This Firex KF30R is designed to detect heat and provide an acoustic warning signal in the event of rapid temperature increases. The product is used for temperature-based fire detection and is suitable for use in indoor areas where smoke detectors are less suitable, such as kitchens, garages, and technical rooms. The operates based on thermal detection and activates an alarm when a temperature of 57 degrees Celsius is reached. Upon activation, an 85-decibel alarm sounds to warn occupants. The is connected to the 230-volt mains and features fixed rechargeable backup batteries that support the product's entire lifespan. The detector remains operational in the event of a power outage. The is wired connectable with other Firex smoke and detectors.

Explanation of additional features Thermal heat detection The detector responds to temperature increases and is intended for areas where fire and heat occur faster than smoke. Wired connectable system The detector can be wired to other Firex smoke and heat detectors so that all detectors alarm simultaneously. Fixed rechargeable backup batteries The internal batteries support the entire lifespan of the detector and ensure operation in the event of a power outage. End-of-life warning At the end of its lifespan, the detector emits an acoustic signal to indicate replacement. Explanation of detection types Thermal detection measures the ambient temperature and activates the alarm when a fixed temperature limit is exceeded. Explanation of standards BSI 5446-2 describes requirements for heat detectors and smoke alarms for domestic use. NEN 2555 is the Dutch standard for detectors in homes and aligns with the Building Decree. NEN 14604 describes additional requirements within combined fire detection systems. CE indicates that the product complies with applicable European directives regarding safety, health, and environmental protection. Ask a product question
