Product Summary
The System Sensor Smoke Sensor Model 2100ARFT
(smoke alarm) is a Learn Mode, wireless, photoelectric
smoke sensor with a self-contained alarm siren, a low-bat-
tery annunciator, and a status light. The smoke alarm is part
of a security/fire alarm system and communicates with the
system control panel.
Each smoke alarm uses two 3-volt lithium batteries. The
batteries are shipped in the unit with a pull tab inserted at
the positive terminal. Remove the pull tab and reinstall the
batteries as needed, observing correct polarity.
The detector provides the following features:
Fixed/rate of rise 135° F temperature heat detector
trips an alarm when the temperature reaches 135° F or
higher, or when the temperature rises rapidly.
Freeze detector sends a trouble signal when the ambi-
ent temperature around the detector drops below 40° F.
This could indicate a heating problem on the premises.
System sirens sound trouble beeps, and if the condition
continues for one hour, the panel reports to central
monitoring station.
Note
Freeze detector only compatible with Concord™ , Con-
cord Express™ , Ultragard
®
Simon systems will only respond on site with trouble
beeps and will not report the trouble condition to the
central monitoring station.
