Intelligent / Addressable Devices
General
Notifier FST-851(A) Series intelligent plug-in thermal detectors
with integral communication has features that surpass conven-
tional detectors. Point ID capability allows each detectors
address to be set with rotary, decimal address switches, pro-
viding exact detector locations. FST-851(A) Series thermal
detectors use an innovative thermistor sensing circuit to pro-
duce 135F/57C fixed-temperature (FST-851/A) and rate-of-
rise thermal detection (FST-851R/A) in a low-profile package.
FST-851H(A) provides fixed high-temperature detection at
190F/88C. These thermal detectors provide effective, intelli-
gent property protection in a variety of applications. FST-
