The System Sensor 5600 Series mechanical heat detectors are the choice for property protection against fire and for non-life-safety situations where smoke detectors may be inappropriate. Some examples are small confined spaces where rapidly building high-output fires are expected, in areas where ambient conditions would not allow the use of other fire detection devices, or when speed of detection is not a prime consideration.

The 5600 Series includes nine detectors in both single- and  dual-circuit devices featuring: 135°F fixed, 135°F fixed plus rate-of-rise (ROR), 194°F fixed, and 194°F fixed plus ROR heat detection. Clearly marked with detection capabilities, these units are effective for commercial and industrial installations.

The 5601P mechanical heat detector is an unmarked 135°F fixed or ROR heat detector with no external letters, numbers or markings. The 5601P model is specifically designed to accommodate applications where markings on the device may compromise the visual integrity of the product and its surroundings.

To meet the needs of a variety of applications and save time and money on installation, the 5600 Series features multiple back box mounting options, a reversible mounting bracket for flush- or surface-mount installations, SEMS-type screw terminals, clearer external identification, and an aesthetic design that’s similar to a smoke detector.
