The Simplex 4098-9602 TrueSense Multisensor Detector Head provides advanced combination fire detection for compatible conventional Simplex fire alarm systems. It integrates optical sensing with electronic heat detection in a single low-profile device. In addition, its onboard microprocessor analyzes multiple sensing conditions to support reliable fire alarm operation.
This detector uses TrueAlarm technology with TrueSense analysis, automatic sensitivity compensation, and magnetic functional testing. Therefore, it offers a versatile solution for professional fire alarm installations and maintenance projects.
The Simplex 4098-9602 combines two sensing technologies to identify potentially dangerous fire conditions.
First, its optical sensing chamber monitors airborne particles associated with developing fires. Meanwhile, its electronic thermistor monitors surrounding temperature changes.
The onboard microprocessor evaluates these inputs individually and together.
As a result, the detector can respond to different fire development patterns through four independent detection modes.
The detector provides four distinct methods of recognizing alarm conditions.
Optical Detection: The sensing chamber monitors changes in light scattering caused by airborne particles.
Fixed-Temperature Heat Detection: The electronic heat sensor initiates an alarm when the temperature reaches 135°F (57°C).
Rate-of-Rise Heat Detection: The detector responds to temperature increases of at least 20°F per minute when the ambient temperature exceeds 90°F.
TrueSense Combined Analysis: The onboard processor compares optical and thermal activity to identify developing fire conditions.
Together, these modes provide broader detection capability than a single-technology device.
The integrated thermistor provides fixed-temperature sensing at 135°F (57°C).
When the surrounding temperature reaches the specified threshold, the detector initiates an alarm.
Unlike mechanical heat detectors with non-restorable fusible elements, the electronic thermal sensing mechanism is resettable.
Therefore, the detector does not require replacement solely because its electronic heat sensing function has activated, provided it remains functional and passes required inspection and testing.
The detector also monitors rapid temperature increases.
Its rate-of-rise function responds to temperature changes of 20°F per minute or greater.
However, this function operates only when the ambient temperature exceeds approximately 90°F (32°C).
This design helps reduce unwanted activation from ordinary temperature fluctuations.
The optical sensing chamber uses TrueAlarm sensitivity drift compensation.
Over time, dust and dirt can affect detector sensitivity. The onboard software monitors gradual changes and adjusts its reference level within specified operating limits.
Moreover, the detector identifies when contamination approaches its compensation limit.
Consequently, maintenance personnel can recognize conditions requiring cleaning or service.
The detector supports magnetic functional testing.
A qualified technician can place the appropriate magnet at the designated test location for approximately four seconds.
The detector then initiates its test sequence and provides LED status information.
Depending on the detected condition, the LED can indicate normal operation, excessive sensitivity, reduced sensitivity, or a malfunction.
Therefore, this feature supports convenient maintenance diagnostics.
The Simplex 4098-9602 operates with compatible conventional initiating device circuits.
It supports selected two-wire and four-wire detector mounting bases.
The manufacturer specifies an operating voltage range of 15 to 32 VDC.
However, the detector does not have an individual digital device address.
Therefore, installers must confirm the control panel, initiating circuit, and base compatibility before installation.
The detector supports the Simplex 4098-9788 two-wire base.
It also supports the 4098-9682 four-wire relay base and the 4098-9683 two-wire relay base.
These mounting accessories provide different electrical connection and auxiliary indication options.
For example, relay-equipped bases can support approved auxiliary alarm functions.
However, the mounting base is sold separately unless specifically included in the product package.
The detector has a UL-listed ambient temperature range of 32°F to 100°F (0°C to 38°C).
Its specified operating range extends from 15°F to 100°F, subject to applicable installation and listing requirements.
The unit also supports air velocities up to 2,000 feet per minute.
In addition, its frost-white housing provides a clean appearance for approved ceiling or wall installations.
This multisensor detector supports compatible commercial and institutional fire alarm systems.
Typical applications include offices, schools, hotels, healthcare facilities, retail properties, warehouses, and other approved indoor environments.
Its combined sensing capability can support locations where the fire alarm design calls for both optical and thermal detection.
Before installation, verify the control panel, mounting base, wiring requirements, and environmental conditions.
Also, inspect the detector for damage, contamination, and correct identification markings.
Qualified fire alarm professionals should install and test the device according to Simplex instructions and applicable fire alarm codes.
Overall, the Simplex 4098-9602 TrueSense combines optical sensing, fixed-temperature heat detection, rate-of-rise monitoring, and intelligent multisensor analysis in one device. Its diagnostic features and compatible conventional mounting options make it suitable for professional maintenance and replacement applications.
