This chapter contains general notes, specifications, and mounting information for the TrueAlarm
Sensors, Sensor Bases and QuickConnect Smoke Sensors.
WARNING: Be sure that the location of each smoke sensor and each heat
sensor has been planned per local and national fire codes
(see NFPA 72).
Smoke sensor sensitivities are set and continuously monitored by the control panel. This
functionality complies with NFPA 72. When functional testing of these sensors is required per
NFPA 72, use the test methods described in Chapter 5 of this manual “Compatibility and Testing.”
Refer to NFPA 72 for application, test, and maintenance requirements.
The 4098-9733 heat sensor and 4098-9754 multi-sensor provide a Rate-of-Rise function that is
software programmed and selectable at 15° F (8.3° C) or 20° F (11.1° C) per minute. The
4098-9733 and 4098-9754 also provide general temperature monitoring within the range of
32°-122° F (0°-50° C).
