The MCD 573X is a combined smoke and heat detector that can detect both smoldering and open fires using scattered light detection for smoke and an NTC sensor for heat. It sends appropriate alarm signals to the control panel if the detection values are exceeded. The detector can be programmed according to its application and mounts to a base for surface or flush mounting. Regular maintenance and inspection is required according to local guidelines, with Securiton recommending an annual function and visual inspection of the detector.

MCD 573X Multi criteria smoke and heat detector The MCD 573X is an individual addressable automatic fire detector for smoke and heat.
The MCD573X meets the SecuiLine eXtended specification for op-
eration on the ring circuit of the SecuriFire fire detection system. Fig. 1 MCD 573X __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Description Fire detectors may cause false alarms due to op-
erational disturbances such as cigarette smoke, The MCD 573X is a combined smoke and heat detector. It detects steam, heat, dust. smouldering and open fires in good time as it can both detect and evaluate the fire characteristic smoke as well as heat. The Tyndall (scattered light) principle is applied for smoke detection and the Planning NTC sensor principle for heat detection. An appropriate signal is Country-specific guidelines for planning and installation of auto- sent to the control panel, if the signal vales specified in the detec- matic fire alarm systems apply to the project planning.

The MCD 573X can be programmed and set according to its field of application. The most important settings are: Selecting the smoke responsiveness; at 80% (higher respon- siveness), 100% (normal responsiveness) and 120% (lower re- sponsiveness) of the alarm threshold Selection of heat classes according to EN 54-5; Class A1, A2, B inclusive index R (for unheated rooms) and in- dex S (for kitchens) for all 3 heat classes.
