How It Works

The Series 65A Smoke Detector operates on the light scatter principle, ensuring a quick response to the presence of smoke. Here’s a simplified explanation of its operation:

• An infrared LED emits collimated light bursts every three seconds.
• In the absence of smoke, the photodiode receives no direct light due to its angular arrangement and dual mask.
• When smoke enters the chamber, a fraction of the collimated light scatters onto the photodiode.
• If the signal from the photodiode exceeds a preset threshold, the LED emits two more light bursts, signaling the presence of smoke.
• The detector switches to an alarm state, increasing the current draw and illuminating the LED to alert you.

Environmental and Electrical Details

• Operating Temperature Range: 32°F to 140°F
• Air Velocity Tolerance: 0 – 300 fpm
• Materials: Housing – White Flame-Retardant Polycarbonate, Terminals – Nickel-Plated Stainless Steel
• Electrical Connection: Compatible with a two-wire loop circuit carrying both data and a 9V to 33V DC supply
