D296/D297 | Installation Instructions | 7.0 Additional Information Field Sensitivity Measurements The D296 and D297 automatically compensate for the effects of dust and dirt accumulation on their covers. They also compensate for component aging. The NFPA requires the detector sensitivity be measured in the field within one year after its initial installation and every alternate year thereafter (refer to NFPA 72).
