D-TECT Conventional Sensors
Potter's all new D-TECT Sensors have been designed from the ground up with unmatched performance, ease of installation, and unique testing and maintenance features. Featuring Dynamic Threat Emergency Communication Technology, D-TECT sensors achieve adaptive response and reduce false alarms. A photo chamber (patent pending) accurately detects fire while rejecting nuisance. These new sensors are backwards compatible with all listed conventional devices when paired with a PC series base. Potter ensures that there is no learning curve when designing with and installing this new family of detectors and bases
Unmatched Performance
Dynamic Sampling & Local Processing
D-TECT's unique detection systems are resistant to dirt, insects, and back pressure ensuring accurate detection, even in the presence of environmental interference. By continuously monitoring the surrounding environment, they acclimate over time to prevent false alarms.
UL 268 7th Edition
D-TECT Sensors are UL 268 7th Edition compliant to be more sensitive to fire while remaining immune to deceptive environmental phenomena. A unique photo chamber (patent pending) design utilizes two light sources to discriminate between fire smokes and cooking nuisance.
Low Standby Current
D-TECT Sensors consume very little power when the device operates during standby normal status. The LED flashing pattern indicates the device statuses including normal standby, alarm, trouble, dirty (except heat detector), and sensitivity range. When the input is activated, the LED will flash at a rapid rate.
Unmatched Coverage
D-TECT's heat sensor spans up to an industry leading 70ft from 135° allowing fewer detectors to cover the same space and lowering installation costs.
