• Operates in conjunction with legacy SmartOne
DS, PSD, CPD and THD smoke and heat detectors
• Two-color (green/red) status LED
• Supports remote LED alarm indication
DESCRIPTION
The KS-PS Photoelectric Smoke Detector
device that gathers analog information from multiple optical
sensors, converting this data into digital signals. Utilizing
dual optical wavelengths combined with multiple detection
angles, the differentiates particles that are not repre-
KS-PS
sentative of actual smoke. Data is digitally filtered to
remove signal patterns that are typical of nuisance sources,
thus reducing unwanted alarms. To make an alarm deci-
sion, the detector's on-board microprocessor measures
and analyzes all optical sensor readings and compares this
information to a preprogrammed setting.
ADDRESSING
KS-PS detectors feature electronic addressing. No addressing
switches are used.
PROTOCOL
This product will operate only on a Kidde Fire Systems fire alarm-
suppression control unit employing SmartOne communications
protocol.
STATUS LED
KS-PS detectors use an LED to indicate the detector's condition.
In normal, standby condition, a green LED flashes at a 9 second
repetition rate. An alarm is indicated by a red flash at a 2.50 sec-
ond repetition rate.
REMOTE ALARM LED
An optional SIGA-LED Remote Indicator can be connected to the
standard DS-SB base if the KS-PS detector status LED is in a
location where it cannot be easily viewed.

INSTALLATION
A KS-PS detector mounts to North American 1-gang boxes, 3-1/2
inch or 4 inch octagon boxes, and to 4 inch square electrical
boxes 1-1/2 inches (38 mm) deep.
EASY TWIST HEAD
A KS-PS detector head is installed onto its base by aligning arrow
marks and gently twisting the head clockwise until secure.
Removal is just as easy and is done by grasping the head and
gently pressing down while turning counter-clockwise. Removal
can be aided with the optional SIGA Removal Tool (P/N SIGA-
RTA). This tool can be attached to a telescoping pole to avoid the
use of ladders.
SENSITIVITY
The alarm sensitivity is the minimum obscuration level at which
the detector initiates an alarm condition and can be specified via
the control unit menus or the remote configuration software. The
control unit to which the detectors are connected is capable of
interrogating each detector to determine its sensitivity.
