u Smoke threshold is adjustable and automatically

compensated

u Rotary switch addressing

u Flexible work modes determined by the control

panel

u Selectable base locking mechanism prevents

malicious removal of the detector

u Multi‑criteria or multi‑sensor technology reduces

false alarms

The FAP‑440 Analog Detectors are open-area smoke

detectors of which some models are enhanced with

heat or heat and CO sensors. These detectors work

with the FPA‑1000 Analog Addressable Fire Panels.

Use these detectors with the FAA‑440 bases to provide

general life safety and property protection.

Functions

Address Range

The FAP‑440 Analog Detectors have a valid address

range from 1 to 254 which is set by rotary switches on

the back of each detector.

Indicator LED

The detector head has a multi‑color LED to indicate

status. To verify power to the detector and functioning

communication of the analog addressable loop, the

LED indicator flashes green when operating normally

(polling). Through panel parameter setting, it is

possible to turn on or off operation of the polling

indicator. In the event of an alarm condition, the

detector LED will always show a steady red light.

Modular Construction

These detectors are part of a two‑piece modular

design for detector assemblies. An FAP‑440 Analog

Detector attaches to an FAA‑440 Family base. The

base’s security locking tab prevents any unauthorized

detector removal from the base.

Advanced technology for false alarm reduction

Multi‑sensor detector: The multi‑sensor detector

contains a photoelectric smoke sensor and a heat

sensor. Either sensor can detect a fire and activate an

alarm signal. The smoke threshold is adjustable (see

Sensitivity Calibration and Compensation below) while

the heat sensor’s threshold is set at 135°F.

Multi-criteria detector: The multi‑criteria detector also

contains smoke and heat sensors that work

independently of each other, but in conjunction with

the CO sensor. In this model, an alarm signal will be

activated by either one or both of the sensors only if

the CO level is also exceeded.

| FAP-440 Analog Detectors Notice Carbon monoxide sensors: Detectors that contain carbon monoxide (CO) sensors must not be used as stand-alone CO detectors. The CO sensor is supplied to confirm the presence of CO as a by-product of combustion thereby reducing false alarms, but not to confirm the presence of CO as a hazardous gas. Programming Local programming is carried out at the panel keypad or by computer through a Web browser. Remote programming is carried out through a Web browser.
