Product catalog summary
General Overview
The Gamewell-FCI® Self-Test Series intelligent plug-in smoke detectors are designed for optimal performance, ease of use, and aesthetics. These detectors, when used with the Gamewell-FCI E4 ElevateTM Series panel, automatically perform maintenance tests for smoke and heat detection, meeting NFPA requirements. They are the first of their kind to be UL approved and feature an enhanced optical sensing chamber.

Specifications
The detectors include dual electronic thermistors for thermal sensing and can be programmed for different temperature settings. They offer point ID capability for precise location identification and are compatible with Velociti® applications.

Installation
Installation is simplified with a detachable base, and instructions are provided with each detector. The detectors are constructed from fire-resistant plastic and designed to commercial standards.

Operation
Each detector uses one of the panel’s addresses on the Gamewell-FCI Self-Test Signaling Line Circuit (SLC) and responds to regular polls from the control panel. The Self-Test feature is UL approved and allows for comprehensive testing without external tools.

Features & Benefits
The Self-Test feature introduces smoke and heat into the chamber to test sensors, verifies visual inspections, and tests detectors across multiple loops and panels. The detectors have a sleek design, integral communications, and a remote test feature.

Technical Specifications
Electrical specifications include a voltage range of 15 - 32 volts DC and a standby current of 200 μA. Physical specifications include a size of 2.0" high, with base diameter varying by model. Operating temperature ranges and sensitivity levels are specified for different models.

Standards and Approvals
The detectors comply with UL268 7th edition and UL521 standards. They are UL Listed and FM Approved, with specific listings for different models.

Product Line Information
The product line includes various models such as ASD-PL3-SELFT, ASD-PTL3-SELFT, and ATD-L3-SELFT, each with specific features and capabilities. Optional bases and accessories are available for enhanced functionality.

Self-Test Series -1

Addressable Devices Self-Test Series Self-Testing Addressable Detectors General The breakthrough Gamewell-FCI® Self-Test Series intelligent plug-in smoke detectors are designed for performance, ease of use and aesthetics. When used with the Gamewell-FCI E4 ElevateTM Series panel and initiated through an app, the Self-Test Series detectors automatically perform maintenance tests of smoke and heat detection without using canned smoke or heat guns. The Self-Test process meets the three core NFPA requirements for detector maintenance: functional test, smoke entry test, and ability to verify a visual inspection has taken place. It is the first detector of its type to be approved by UL. It also retains the great features of the standard 951 series including the enhanced optical sensing chamber which is engineered to sense smoke produced by a wide range of combustion sources in accordance with more stringent code standards. For ease, its sensitivity can also be programmed in the control panel software. Sensitivity is continuously monitored and reported to the panel for selective maintenance when chamber contamination reaches an unacceptable level. Dual electronic thermistors add 135°F (57°C) fixed temperature thermal sensing on the ASD-PTL3-SELFT. The ATD-L3-SELFT intelligent temperature sensor can be programmed as either a 135°F fixed temperature sensor, a rate of rise and 135°F fixed temperature sensor or a 190°F high temperature sensor through the Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP). Point ID capability allows each detector’s address to be set with rotary, decimal address switches providing exact detector location. The Gamewell-FCI® Self-Test series detectors are available for our Velociti® applications. Installation Gamewell-FCI® Series plug-in intelligent smoke detectors use a detachable base to simplify installation, service and maintenance. Installation instructions are shipped with each detector. Mount detector base (all base types) on an electrical backbox which is at least 1.5" (3.81 cm) deep. For a chart of compatible junction boxes, see 9021-60540. Note: Because of the inherent supervision provided by the SLC loop, end-of-line resistors are not required. Wiring “T-taps” or branches are permitted for Class “B” wiring only.When using relay or sounder bases, consult the ISO-X/ISO-XA manuals for device limitations between isolator modules and isolator bases. Construction These detectors are constructed of fire-resistant plastic. Gamewell-FCI® Series plug-in intelligent smoke detectors are designed to commercial standards and offer an attractive appearance. Operation Each Gamewell-FCI Self- Test Series detector uses one of the panel’s addresses (total limit is panel dependent) on the Gamewell-FCI Self-Test Signaling Line Circuit (SLC). The detector responds to regular polls from the control panel and reports its type and the status. If it receives a test command from the panel (or a local magnet test), it stimulates its electronics and reports an alarm. It blinks its LEDs when polled and turns the LEDs on when commanded by the panel. The Gamewell-FCI Self- Test Series offers an industry breakthrough with its UL approved Self-Test feature as well as great fire detection performance that represent the latest in smoke detector technology.
