SmokeWatch™ U5015 Explosion-proof Smoke Detector Spec Sheet

Product catalog summary
Overview: The Det-Tronics® SmokeWatch™ U5015 is an explosion-proof smoke detector designed for industrial and commercial applications, particularly in hazardous environments. It is suitable for detecting both smoldering and rapidly growing fires and includes features to ensure no undisclosed failures occur.
Applications: The U5015 is ideal for use in combustible storage facilities, munitions manufacturing, volatile chemical storage, chemical processing plants, petroleum refineries, turbine enclosures, battery rooms, and HVAC applications.
Technology Features: The U5015 is FM Approved for use in Class I, Division 1, and Zone 1 hazardous locations, with IECEx Zone approval. It features trouble-free photoelectric operation, 0-20 mA output for DCS integration, self-checking circuitry, and relays for alarm, auxiliary, and fault conditions. The device also includes an LED for visual alarm indication and has an IP44 ingress protection level.
Benefits: The detector is well-suited for classified areas in the petrochemical, oil, and gas industries. It offers integration with DCS and PLC systems, rugged design for extreme environments, and visual confirmation of alarms. It effectively detects smoldering fires and ensures no undisclosed failures.
