– FCP-OC320/FCP-OC320-R470
Multisensor detectors with C sensors must be exchanged every 5 years.
An FCP-OC320 and FCP‑OC320‑R470 will deactivate its C sensor after 5years of
operation due to the gas sensor's limited life cycle. The detector continues to function as
an O detector.
Depending on the system, there may be no message to the control panel, and the
deactivation of the C sensor is only noticed when the detector is tested. The FCP‑OC320/
FCP‑OC320‑R470 should therefore be exchanged promptly before 5years of operation
has elapsed.
– Optical smoke detectors should, depending on the environmental conditions, be cleaned
and exchanged regularly.
