Smoke Detector
The ADEMCO 5192 Series low profile, addressable
V-PlexTM smoke detectors deliver state-of the-art
features and benefits in a cost-effective package. These detectors are designed
to provide open area coverage and are compatible with ADEMCO’s VISTA controls
supporting V-Plex technology. An LED on the detector will blink periodically
during normal conditions, remain on steady during alarm and cease to pulse if
the chamber is out of acceptable sensitivity range.
An extremely powerful feature available within the 5192 Series is the
Automatic Maintenance Alert/Reporting capability - a feature normally found in
today’s high end analog addressable systems. The detectors continually monitor
their own sensitivity levels in addition to the basic normal and alarm
conditions. These HIGH and LOW SENSITIVITY signals are communicated back to the
control, via the V-Plex addressable loop, to indicate locally and at the central
station that the detector may not be able to detect smoke or may false alarm.
This feature works with Vista-32FB, 128FB, and 128B.
More important is the cost saving associated with Automatic Maintenance
Reporting. The feature is an approved alternate to NFPA 72 field sensitivity
calibration testing that require external test meters. This eliminates the need
to schedule inspections to determine detector sensitivity/viability.
Another important benefit of these V-Plex (addressable) smoke detectors is
their ability to operate on existing wiring. There is no need to run special
twisted pair, data grade or shielded wires, providing you with the right choice
for all your retrofit applications. That equates to cost savings in time and
materials! PRIMARY FEATURES

APPLICATIONS
The 5192 Series smoke detectors are designed to provide
open area coverage and are well suited for most fire detection applications.
These smoke detectors are compatible with all ADEMCO VISTA Fire and Burglary
controls that support V-Plex addressable loop technology. These agency listed
alarm initiating devices support most commercial and residential applications.
They are suited for use in museums, hospitals, day care centers, retail stores,
strip malls, schools, libraries, fast food chains, medical or professional
office suites and in factory and warehouse environments.
INSTALLATION
The 5192 Series smoke detectors are supplied
with a convenient mounting bracket that allows the detector to be mounted to a
variety of electrical junction boxes. A removable terminal block, that accepts
14 to 22 gauge wire to provide easy wiring connections. The detectors are
designed to meet all applicable requirements for UL Commercial and Residential
Fire installations as well as NFPA 72 requirements when installed in compliance
with the National Electric Code and approved/listed control panels.
COMPATIBILITY
These smoke detectors are compatible with all VISTA control
panels that support V-Plex (addressable) polling loop technology. The detectors
support DIP switch or serial number addressing. DIP switch configuration are
compatible with 5140XM, VISTA-40, and VISTA-50P controls. Serial number
addressing is supported on VISTA-32FB, VISTA-100, VISTA-128FB, VISTA-128B and
First Alert Professionals FA1600C controls. Refer to control panel and smoke
detector installation instructions for details.
Automatic Maintenance Reporting Compatibility
The automatic maintenance feature is compatible on with the
following control panels ONLY: VISTA-32FB (coming soon), VISTA-128FB, VISTA-128B
and First Alert Professionals FA1600C. The automatic maintenance may be disabled
for all other controls that do not support this feature. Refer to control panel
and smoke detector Installation Instructions for details. |
