General Description
The B401B plug-in detector base is used with System Sen-
sor model 2451 and 2451TH photoelectronic detector heads
and model 1451A ionization detector heads. The capability
of plugging these detectors into a variety of special bases
makes them more versatile than equivalent direct-wired
models. Refer to the System Sensor catalog for other avail-
able plug-in detector bases.
This base is intended for use in 2-wire systems, with screw
terminals provided for power, ground, and remote annun-
ciator connections.
