Description

The Panasonic 6000 series conventional heat detectors are designed for challenging environments where smoke detection is unsuitable, such as outdoors, in high-humidity areas, or locations expecting rapid temperature increases. These state-of-the-art detectors boast an IP67 rating, making them ideal for wet or difficult conditions, and are approved according to EN54-5. The series also offers intrinsically safe options for enhanced security.

These fixed-temperature heat detectors operate using a heat pick-up shield and a bimetal switch, activating an alarm within a specific response temperature range. When triggered, both the detector’s integrated LED and an optional remote indicator illuminate, remaining active until reset via the Control and Indicating Equipment (C.I.E.), ensuring a continuous and reliable warning.

The series comprises four distinct models to suit various applications: the 6295 with a 57°C static response (Class A2 S), the 6296 at 72°C (Class B S), the 6297 at 87°C (Class C S), and the 6298 at 117°C (Class E S). This range allows for precise selection based on environmental demands.

Installation is facilitated by a waterproof housing for all electronic components, fitted within a dedicated connection box. This box features three cable inlets, three compression glands, and a silicone gasket, ensuring comprehensive IP67 protection. Each detector comes with three pairs of flying leads for straightforward connection to zone lines and remote indicators. Constructed from modified polycarbonate, these detectors are capable of operating within a broad temperature range of -40°C to +80°C.
