Description

The FLEX Series belongs to the Fire Alarm Aspiration Sensing Technology (FAAST) family, and FLX-020 is its 2-pipe Stand-alone model: an aspirating smoke detector giving early warning detection from a dedicated high sensitivity smoke sensor.

Every sensing channel is built from an inlet, a metallic filter and a sensing element. DIP switches on the circuit board normally set the unit up, while a USB port on that same board lets maintenance technicians pull event logs off it. Parts needing periodic attention are placed so they stay easy to reach whatever the cabling situation, and an in-line filter (Xtralis VSP-850, System Sensor F-INF-25) can be installed on the pipe work close to the inlet. This equipment and all associated pipe work must be installed in accordance with all relevant codes and regulations.

This equipment and all associated pipe work must be installed in accordance with all relevant codes and regulations. The detectors can be damaged by rough handling, so violent vibration, heavy shock loads and exposure to excessive heat or moisture should be avoided during transportation, and the product should be stored in an environmentally controlled, clean, dry, well ventilated area free from any corrosive agents.
