The PAD300-HD is a certified analog addressable heat detector that supports rate of rise and fixed temperature detection. It is compatible with any fire alarm control panel utilizing the Potter Addressable Device (PAD) protocol. The heat sensing component employs a reliable thermistor for precise heat detection. Both the detector and the base (sold separately) are constructed from durable off-white plastic, allowing them to blend seamlessly with ceiling surfaces. The PAD300-HD is UL listed and offers a selectable fixed temperature range from 135° to 185° Fahrenheit, making it suitable for various applications including rate of rise detection. This versatility allows installers to use a single unit for multiple purposes. Communication between the PAD300-HD and the control panel occurs over a robust digital path, with a total polling speed of less than five seconds, meeting UL requirements. The detector is compatible with all PAD300 series bases and is easily mounted by twisting it on. Addressing is handled through DIP switches on the rear of the detector, facilitating easy field programming without special tools.
