Fire Detectors
Flame Detectors
Flame detectors report the presence of visible fires within a protected area. All flames emit visible light plus invisible infrared and ultraviolet radiation. Our flame detectors use these invisible radiations to distinguish between a real flame and other sources of radiation that are visible to the detector. The flame detector may be connected to a fire alarm control system, or can function as a stand alone device to alert personnel or to shut down equipment in case of a fire.

Smoke Detectors
Smoke detectors respond to the combustion products emitted by burning materials. All smoke detectors report fires that emit visible smoke. Smoke detectors using ionization techniques for detection can also respond to fires which produce little or no visible smoke. Our smoke detectors are almost always connected our NOVA-5000 Fire Alarm Control System to report conditions to a central control point and alert personnel. For special applications, our smoke detectors are also available as a stand alone device.
Intrinsically safe smoke detectors are approved for use in hazardous locations where explosive levels of gas or vapors are normally or potentially present.

Heat Detectors
Heat Detectors respond to excessively high temperatures in the protected area, which are presumed to be the result of a fire in the area. Various techniques are used to distinguish between fire produced heat and heat increases due to expected conditions in the area. Flame or Smoke detectors will usually respond to a fire faster than heat detectors. But non-electronic styles of heat detectors (Our Model T300) are considered to be the most reliable fire reporting device, and are therefore often used as backups for the other fire detectors.
SST also offers intrinsically safe heat detectors which are approved for use in hazardous locations where explosive levels of gas or vapors are normally or potentially present.

Manual Pull & Release Inhibit Stations
Fire Standards require the use of Manual Alarm Stations in all areas occupied by people. A person can see a fire and activate a manual station faster than any detector can report the fire. The stations must be easily identified as fire alarms and easy to operate by untrained personnel. It is typical to provide a manual station at each exit door of the area. Inside the area, a typical requirement is to locate additional stations so that any person would never be more than 30 feet (9.1 m) from a manual pull station.
General purpose and explosion proof manual alarm pull stations available.
