Intelligent Addressable Duct Smoke Detector

E-PDD / FX-PDD

Description

The E-PDD part number has been replaced by FX-PDD.  Products are otherwise identical.



  • Less than 2" deep for easy installation and applications where space is tight

  • 32 to 120 °F (0 to 50 °C) operating range with 100 ft/min. to 4,000 ft/min air velocity rating assures reliability under harsh environmental conditions

  • Status LEDs remain visible through clear assembly cover

  • Cover monitor switch for added security

  • Standard sampling tube spacing for easy drop-in migration from other detectors

  • Sampling tube can be installed with or without the cover in place and can be rotated in 45-degree increments to ensure proper alignment with duct airflow

  • 15.2 to 19.95 Vdc operation

  • Magnet-activated test switch

  • One Form C auxiliary alarm relay for controlling ancillary equipment (e.g., HVAC controls)

  • No special tools required for easy access to field connections

  • Environmental compensation with differential sensing for reliable, stable, and drift-free sensitivity

  • Wide 0.79% to 2.46% obscuration/ft. smoke sensitivity

  • Identification of dirty or defective detectors




Remote Test Stations
Labor-saving Remote Test/Reset stations provide alarm testing from the convenience of a remote location. Tests can be performed quickly and safely – without having to climb to the roof. Magnetically-operated and key-operated one-gang models are available. FX-PDD detectors are also compatible with R-LED remote alarm LED.

Air velocity in the duct as low as 100 ft/min. maintains adequate air flow into the sensor smoke chamber through air holes in the air sampling tube and discharges through the exhaust tube. Air sampling tubes must be installed with the inlet holes facing the airstream. Sampling tubes may be rotated in 45-degree increments so that air-holes can be aligned to allow the unit to be mounted in virtually any angle relative to the airflow.

FX-PDD sensors are engineered to operate optimally under the harsh environmental conditions frequently found in HVAC ductwork. Nonetheless, before installing the detector, test the duct air velocity, temperature, and humidity to verify that it is within the operating range of the detector. Consult the FX-PDD installation sheet for details.
