Description
The Simplex 2098-9209 Photoelectric Smoke Detector delivers reliable smoke detection for conventional fire alarm systems with a space-saving, low-profile design and UL 268 certification. Engineered for simplicity and durability, this non-polarized 2-wire detector connects directly to the initiating device circuit (IDC) of your fire alarm control panel, eliminating the need for external bases or additional modules.
Featuring a pulsing red LED for power-on status and a steady glow for alarm indication, the 2098-9209 ensures easy visual confirmation. It includes dual magnetic test switches to perform functional alarm tests without triggering nuisance alarms, simulating real smoke conditions to meet code compliance.
The unit’s chamber is shielded with a 30-mesh insect screen and EMI-resistant electronics to prevent false alarms from environmental interference. It mounts securely to ceilings or walls using a locking tab that discourages tampering and unauthorized removal—ideal for public and high-traffic installations.
