General
The Notifier FAPT-851(A) Acclimate® Plus™ detector is an
intelligent, addressable, multi-sensing, low-profile detector
designed for use with Notifier Notifier Onyx and CLIP series
Fire Alarm Control Panels (FACPs).
The Acclimate Plus detector uses a combination of photoelec-
tric and thermal sensing technologies to increase immunity to
false alarms. Unlike traditional intelligent detectors, the Accli-
mate Plus detector has a microprocessor in the detector head
that processes alarm data. As a result, the Acclimate Plus
detector adjusts its sensitivity automatically, without operator
intervention or control panel programming.
Areas where the Acclimate Plus detector is especially useful
include office complexes, schools, college campuses, manu-
facturing and industrial facilities, and anywhere else the use of
a particular area may change. The Acclimate Plus detector
automatically adjusts its sensitivity to the environment.
FlashScan® (U.S. Patent 5,539,389) is a communication pro-
tocol developed to greatly enhance the speed of communica-
tion between analog intelligent devices and compatible
systems. Intelligent devices communicate in a grouped fash-
ion. If one of the devices within the group has new information,
the panel’s CPU stops the group poll and concentrates on sin-
gle points. The net effect is response speed greater than five
times that of earlier designs.
Features
• Automatically adjusts sensitivity levels without operator
intervention or programming. Sensitivity increases with
heat.
• Microprocessor-based, combination photo and thermal
technology.
• Compatible with all Notifier Onyx and CLIP series Fire
Alarm Control Panels (FACPs).
• Addressable-analog communication.
• Sleek, low-profile design.
• Two-wire SLC connection.
• Rotary, decimal addressing (1-99 on CLIP systems, 1-159
on FlashScan systems).
• Addresses can be viewed and changed without electronic
programmers.
• Dual bi-color LED design provides 360° viewing angle.
• LEDs lock red when in alarm. In FlashScan, LEDs flash
green in standby for normal condition.
• Built-in tamper-resistant feature.
• Constructed of off-white fire-resistant plastic, designed to
commercial standards, and offers an attractive appearance.
• SEMS screws for wiring of the separate base.
• Several base options, including relay, isolator, and sounder.
• Built-in functional test switch activated by external magnet.
• Listed to UL 268.
• Capable of heat-only alarm mode, enabled by a special
command from the panel. Smoke alarms are ignored.
• Low-temperature signal at 45°F +/– 10°F (7.22°C +/–
5.54°C).
