5451 thermal detector, 135° fixed-temperature and rate-of-rise, General
DN-4760 01/19/95 Page 1 of 2
GENERAL
The System Sensor 5451 plug-in rate-of-rise with fixed heat
detector contains a unique dual thermistor sensing circuit
to provide both maximum performance and solid state re-
liability. Additional features include a recess mounting op-
tion, various mounting bases, and a full line of accesso-
ries.
The 5451 thermal detector is specifically designed to meet
the stringent performance requirements of industrial and
commercial fire detection/alarm systems. The design of
these detectors emphasizes ease of installation and field
maintenance.
FEATURES
Dual solid-state thermistor sensors.
Fixed heat with rate-of-rise response (57.2°C/135°F alarm
point).
Rate-of-rise feature activates when the ambient temper-
ature increases at a rate greater than 15°F (9.4°C) per
minute.
Exceptional stability and reliability.
Thermistor technology.
Restorable.
Two visible LEDs blink in standby and latch on in alarm.
Sealed against back pressure.
Three year warranty.
Built-in test switch.
Low standby current.
Built-in tamper-resistant feature.
Designed for electrical box mounting.
360° field viewing angle of the visual alarm LEDs.
Easy plug-in of the head to base.
SEMS screws for easy wiring.
Optional recess mounting kit (flangeless bases only).
UL listed for 50 ft. spacing.
APPLICATIONS
The 5451 135° Fixed Temperature and Rate-of-Rise Ther-
mal Detector is ideal for areas in which a smoke detector
is not practical. Independent studies show that heat de-
tectors should be used when property protection alone is
involved.
