General Description
Model 5451 is a rate-of-rise with fixed temperature alarm
thermal detector utilizing a state-of-the-art dual thermistor
sensing circuit. These detectors are designed to provide
open area protection with 50-foot spacing capability, and
are to be used with compatible control panels only.
Two LEDs on each detector light to provide 360° visibility
of the detector indication. Remote LED annunciator capa-
bility is provided as standard, and the RA400Z remote LED
annunciator is available as an optional accessory.
Base Selection and Wiring Guide
Refer to the installation instructions for the plug-in detec-
tor bases for base selection and wiring instructions. System
Sensor has available a variety of detector bases for these
heat detectors, including 2-wire applications with and
without relays and/or current limiting resistors for use with
control panels that require one. This detector is only to be
used with 400 and 400B series bases.
Install the System Sensor plug-in base to be used with the
detector following the instructions in the base manual.
