The FireProtect 2 (Heat/Smoke) Jeweller is a wireless fire detector designed for indoor installation, featuring a built-in siren. It is capable of detecting both smoke and a rise in temperature. This detector can operate as part of an Ajax security system, communicating with a hub via the secure Jeweller radio protocol, offering a communication range of up to 1,700 meters in open spaces. It also supports autonomous operation without a hub.
Two modifications of the detector are available: one with sealed batteries (indicated by "SB" in its name) providing up to 10 years of autonomous operation, and another with replaceable batteries (indicated by "RB" in its name) offering up to 7 years of operation. FireProtect 2 (Heat/Smoke) detectors are compatible with hubs running OS Malevich 2.14.1 or higher.
The detector's front panel includes a Test/Mute button, activated by pressing its central part. The SmartBracket mounting panel allows for easy installation and removal by turning it counterclockwise. A QR code and ID (serial number) are located on the device for connection to the Ajax system. A tamper button triggers if the detector is removed from its surface or mounting panel. Other elements include detector certification information, a power button, first and second thermistors for temperature detection, green, yellow, and red LED indicators, a siren, and a smoke chamber lid. The smoke chamber lid can be removed when the enclosure is fully disassembled, which the system identifies as a malfunction, triggering an audible signal and notifications to users and the security company.
The FireProtect 2 (Heat/Smoke) Jeweller is a wireless fire detector for indoor use. The SB version provides 10 years of autonomous operation, after which the detector must be replaced. The RB version offers 7 years of autonomous operation, with replaceable batteries. The "Battery Life Optimization" feature should be enabled to ensure the stated battery life.
The detector is equipped with a piezoelectric buzzer siren, providing sound notifications of alarms and events at up to 85 dB (at 3 meters). It is always active, reacting to fire 24/7 regardless of the system's security mode.
FireProtect 2 features two tampers. The first monitors the removal of the detector from the SmartBracket mounting panel, triggering LED indication and sending notifications to users and the security company. The second tamper signals the removal of the smoke chamber lid.
Ajax automation devices can respond to FireProtect 2 alarms through user-defined automation scenarios. For instance, a WallSwitch relay can be configured to turn off ventilation and activate emergency lighting upon an alarm.
The smoke sensor in FireProtect 2 is a dual-spectrum optical sensor. It uses blue and infrared LEDs emitting light at different wavelengths within the smoke chamber to determine the size of volatile particles. This technology allows the detector to respond only to smoke, ignoring vapor and steam, thus reducing false alarms. The smoke chamber is protected from dust, dirt, and insects, ensuring reliable fire detection even if dust settles inside. The HazeFlow 2 software algorithm further enhances protection against false alarms by processing data from the detector to confirm alarms.
FireProtect 2 incorporates two built-in A1R-class thermistors to detect rapid temperature rises and temperatures exceeding a threshold. These thermistors trigger alarms when a rapid temperature rise or a static temperature between +54 °C and +65 °C (129 °F and 149 °F) is detected. The detector reports a temperature exceeding the threshold as soon as it surpasses +64 °C (147 °F). A rapid temperature rise is reported if the temperature increases by 10 °C (50 °F) within 1 minute. If the temperature rises rapidly by 20 °C (68 °F) or more, the detector signals immediately.
The Test/Mute button, located under the front panel, is activated by lightly pressing the center of the panel. It serves several functions:
All FireProtect 2 detectors support the Interconnected Alarm feature, activating the built-in sirens of all fire detectors in the system within 20 seconds of one detector detecting an alarm. FireProtect and FireProtect Plus sirens activate during the detector ping interval (set in Jeweller or Jeweller/Fibra settings), but no later than 60 seconds. FireProtect 2 detectors provide distinct sound and LED indications for different alarm types, while FireProtect and FireProtect Plus detectors use the same sound for all alarm types in an interconnected alarm scenario.
The Ajax system can transmit events and alarms to the PRO Desktop monitoring app and Central Monitoring Stations (CMS) via protocols like SurGard (Contact ID), SIA DC-09 (ADM-CID), and ADEMCO 685. The addressability of Ajax devices allows sending detailed event information, including device type, name, virtual room, and security group, to PRO Desktop and CMS.
To add FireProtect 2 to the Ajax system, users must install the Ajax app, create an account, add a compatible hub, set up a virtual room, ensure the hub is online and disarmed, and then proceed with device pairing. The detector should be within the hub's radio network coverage. If using a radio signal range extender, the detector must first be connected to the hub. The pairing process involves selecting the hub, going to the Devices tab, pressing "Add Device," entering the device name, scanning the QR code or entering the ID, selecting the virtual room and security group, and then turning on the detector by holding the power button for 3 seconds. If connection fails, retry in 5 seconds. The detector cannot connect if operating on different radio frequencies. Once connected, FireProtect 2 appears in the hub device list, with status updates based on the Jeweller or Jeweller/Fibra ping interval (default 36 seconds). FireProtect 2 works with only one hub; connecting to a new hub stops data transmission to the old one, and manual removal from the old hub's device list is required.
FireProtect 2 detectors can operate autonomously without an Ajax hub, notifying of fire or smoke with only a built-in siren and LED indication. In this mode, users do not receive notifications on Ajax apps, Ajax Translator, or PRO Desktop, and the Interconnected Fire Detectors Alarms feature is unavailable. To use autonomously, select an optimal installation location, mount the detector, press the power button to switch it on, and initiate a self-test by holding the Test/Mute button for 1.5 seconds. During the self-test, the detector provides siren and LED indications. After the self-test, the LED indication turns off, and the detector operates autonomously. In case of an alarm, pressing the Test/Mute button or eliminating the cause mutes the siren.
The LEDs and built-in siren report alarms and detector states.
Functionality testing checks the status of the detector's sensors and can be run by pressing the Test/Mute button or in Ajax apps. Self-test is unavailable if the detector is in an alarm state. To run via Test/Mute button, press and hold the center of the front panel for 1.5 seconds. To run in the Ajax app, open the app, select the hub, go to Devices, select FireProtect 2 (Heat/Smoke), go to settings, and click "Device Self-test." After starting, the red LED flashes 5 times with siren beeps. Users receive a notification of the detector state. If the test fails and a malfunction is detected, the yellow LED flashes twice with two siren beeps 3 seconds after the test starts. The self-test does not start immediately but within 30 seconds. To stop, press Test/Mute again. If there are no sound or LED indications during self-test, the detector cannot be used, and Technical Support should be contacted.
The Ajax system provides tests to ensure correct installation. The Jeweller Signal Strength Test is available for FireProtect 2 to determine signal strength and stability. To run in the Ajax app, select the hub, go to Devices, select FireProtect 2 (Heat/Smoke), go to settings, and select "Jeweller Signal Strength Test." The test does not start immediately but within one detector ping interval (default 36 seconds).
Icons in the Ajax app indicate detector states:
Detector states provide information on operating parameters, accessible in Ajax apps under Devices. FireProtect 2 displays three temperature parameters: air temperature in the room, Temperature Threshold Exceeded, and Rapid Temperature Rise.
To change FireProtect 2 settings in the Ajax app: open the app, select the hub, go to Devices, select FireProtect 2 (Heat/Smoke), go to Settings (gear icon), adjust settings, and click "Back" to save.
This feature saves battery charge and is available for hubs on OS Malevich 2.14 or higher with FireProtect 2 detectors. Enabled by default, it increases the ping interval for FireProtect 2 detectors without affecting alarm notification delivery time. To disable: open Ajax app, select hub, go to Hub → Settings → Service → Fire Detectors Settings, disable "Battery Life Optimization" toggle, and click "Back." Disabling this feature reduces battery life for FireProtect 2 SB (Heat/Smoke) to 5 years (from 10) and for FireProtect 2 RB (Heat/Smoke) to 3.5 years (from 7).
The detector is designed for indoor installation only, with a coverage area of 50 to 60 m². It should be installed in the center of the ceiling, 30 cm away from light fixtures or other decorative objects. If ceiling beams protrude 30 cm or more, install the detector between every two beams. If beams protrude less than 30 cm, installation on a beam in the central part of the ceiling is allowed. In halls or narrow corridors, detectors should be no more than 7.5 m apart. On sloping ceilings, install 60 cm from the top point. Wall mounting is not recommended but acceptable if obstacles interfere with ceiling installation, provided the detector is 15-30 cm below the ceiling but above doorways, and installed upside down so LEDs are visible. Consider Jeweller signal strength, distance to the hub, and barriers (floor slabs, walls, large objects) when choosing a location. Installation should be done by specialists.
Only a competent specialist should install this device.
NEVER IGNORE THE ALARM! Assume it is a real fire alarm and evacuate immediately, even if you doubt the cause.
If FireProtect 2 malfunction is detected (e.g., no hub connection), the malfunction counter appears in the device field in Ajax apps. All malfunctions are displayed in red in the detector States. The device can report malfunctions to the CMS and users via push notifications and SMS. FireProtect 2 (Heat/Smoke) malfunctions include:
The detector has a self-test system and does not require user or installer intervention. The smoke chamber is protected from dust and insects, so cleaning is not needed. Running a self-test periodically is recommended to familiarize users with the alarm sound and LED indication. While FireProtect 2 devices connected to Ajax hubs generally don't require routine testing and are constantly monitored, users are encouraged to test them periodically (monthly) to familiarize residents with fire alarm signals. Local regulations may require more frequent testing. Clean the detector enclosure of dust, cobwebs, and contaminants with a soft, dry cloth. Do not use alcohol, acetone, gasoline, or other active solvents. The detector's service life is 10 years; after this period, sensitivity decreases, and replacement is recommended. The RB version operates for up to 7 years on pre-installed batteries, which should be replaced when discharged. Ensure correct battery polarity and run a self-test after replacement.
