Description

The Space Age SSU-SL-2000-P is a photoelectric duct smoke detector designed to provide early detection of smoke within HVAC duct systems. Engineered for commercial, industrial, and institutional applications, the helps prevent the circulation of smoke through air handling equipment by detecting smoke in supply and return ducts before it spreads throughout the building. Therefore, it plays a critical role in protecting occupants, minimizing property damage, and supporting code-compliant fire alarm and HVAC shutdown systems.

Space Age SSU-SL-2000-P Function

The Space Age SSU-SL-2000-P continuously monitors airflow within HVAC ductwork using a high-performance smoke sensor. As a result, smoke generated by a fire can be detected quickly, allowing connected fire alarm panels or building automation systems to initiate fan shutdown, damper closure, or other emergency responses. In addition, the detector helps reduce the spread of smoke through ventilation systems during emergency conditions.

Photoelectric Smoke Detection Technology

The SSU-SL-2000-P utilizes advanced light-scattering technology to detect visible smoke particles commonly produced by slow-smoldering fires. Consequently, it provides dependable smoke detection while minimizing nuisance alarms. Moreover, the plug-in detector head is field replaceable, simplifying maintenance and reducing service time.

Low-Flow HVAC Performance

The detector is listed for air velocities from 100 to 4,000 feet per minute, making it suitable for a wide range of HVAC systems. As a result, it delivers reliable performance in both low- and high-airflow applications. Furthermore, patented no-tools-required sampling tube installation and a built-in test port simplify commissioning and routine testing.

Flexible Relay Outputs

The SSU-SL-2000-P includes multiple relay outputs for easy integration with fire alarm control panels, HVAC controls, and building automation systems. Therefore, installers can configure the detector for smoke detection, fan shutdown, supervisory functions, and remote notification devices. Additionally, the detector supports remote accessories such as test/reset stations, status indicators, horns, and strobes.

Installer-Friendly Design

The Space Age SSU-SL-2000-P is designed with installers and service technicians in mind. The clear cover with captive thumbscrews, external mounting tabs, large wiring compartment, and magnetic test capability reduce installation and maintenance time. Consequently, routine inspections and detector servicing can be completed quickly without removing the unit from the duct.
