Smoke detector
Acclimate Plus is a multi-criteria technology smoke detector that balances stability and early warning to maximize fire detection while rejecting unwanted nuisance alarms. Proprietary technology allows it to respond to a broad range of fires. Its dual-stage drift compensation feature reduces maintenance by notifying the control panel when dust buildup requires attention. Its smoke detection sensitivity increases with heat, eliminating the need to set sensitivity levels at the panel.

Optical beam smoke detector
Combining an infrared transmitter and receiver in one unit, Fireray Reflective needs less cabling than two-part detectors. The unit projects an infrared beam onto a small reflector on the opposite wall. The transmitter/receiver analyzes the returned beam for smoke presence. Automatic drift compensation prevents unwanted alarms caused by dust or slight building movement. It can distinguish between obstructions like smoke and flying insects.

Lighting streamers
Heavy-duty lighting streamers provide temporary overhead lighting for indoor and outdoor applications. Sockets spaced at 10 ft with a 5-ft lead and tail are molded in solid Hypalon rubber and attached to a heavy-duty SOW-A cable. A rubber O ring forms a watertight seal around each lamp neck, to eliminate problems associated with oil, dirt, and moisture. Optional heavy-duty guards provide protection for streamer sockets and are available in red, vinyl-coated steel or crushproof clear lexan.

Motor drive
The Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 7000 “A” Frame air-cooled medium-voltage drive uses symmetrical gate commutated thyristors, which lower conduction and switching losses, reduce total component count, and increase reliability. It features sensorless-vector control, which provides the kind of torque seen in DC drives. It maintains near unity power factor and produces sinusoidal voltage and current waveforms, eliminating the need for an inverter-duty motor.
