Operation Features
In the Discovery Heat Detector, the five response modes Response modes
correspond to the five ‘classes’ as defined in EN 54-5. The
classes in this standard correspond to different behaviour, Discovery Heat Detectors can be operated in any one of five
each of which is designed to be suitable for a range of EN54 approved response modes, which can be selected
application temperatures. All modes incorporate ‘fixed through the fire control panel. Each mode corresponds to a
temperature’ response, which is defined in the standard by the unique response behaviour, which is related to sensitivity to
‘static response temperature’. The application temperatures fire. Mode 1 gives a higher sensitivity to fire than Mode 5.
and static response temperatures for all response modes
are given in the table on the right.
