A fire detector with an integrated sounder provides immediate local alarm output at the detection point, which is particularly valuable in a building with multiple floors or rooms where a remote siren might not be immediately audible to everyone in the building. The sounder in the FireProtect sounds directly where the fire is detected, ensuring occupants in that part of the building receive an immediate alarm signal regardless of where the main Ajax siren is positioned.
The standard FireProtect (without the Plus designation) detects smoke and heat without CO detection, making it the appropriate specification for locations that do not have gas or solid fuel appliance CO risk, such as rooms away from heating appliances, stairwells, landing positions, and corridors.
The black housing is the specific colour variant of the FireProtect, suitable for installations on dark-coloured ceilings or walls, or where a black-finish device is consistent with the interior specification of the space being protected.
The Jeweller wireless connection to the Ajax Hub provides two-way communication, tamper detection, battery monitoring, and signal quality reporting through the Ajax app. A fire detection event from the FireProtect triggers the full Ajax alarm response including monitoring station notification and push notification to registered users.
For Ajax alarm installers completing fire detection system designs for properties across London and the UK where smoke and heat detection with a local sounder is specified and a black housing is required, the FireProtect 8188 in black is the correct device.
