Please note: This product is now obsolete. The suggested replacements are the Apollo AlarmSense Sounder Beacon Base – 45681-509APO and Apollo AlarmSense Integrating Optical Smoke Detector – 55000-391APO.
The Apollo AlarmSense Integrating Optical Smoke Detector & Sounder Visual Indicator Base (55000-395APO) combines smoke detection, audible alarm signalling, and visual notification in a single device, providing an efficient and cost-effective fire protection solution. Designed for use with Apollo AlarmSense systems, the detector uses the proven light scatter principle to detect smoke particles and provide early warning of developing fire conditions.
Unlike conventional optical smoke detectors, the 55000-395APO continuously monitors smoke levels and automatically filters out temporary or transient sources of smoke that are unlikely to indicate a genuine fire. As a result, it helps reduce false alarms while keeping reliable fire detection performance.
The detector responds particularly well to slow-burning and smouldering fires, making it ideal for protecting bedrooms, escape routes, and other occupied areas where early warning is essential. In addition, the integrated sounder visual indicator base provides both audible and visual alarm signal from a single installation point, making installation easier and reducing the number of devices required.
Furthermore, Apollo incorporates a 20 second alarm verification delay, allowing the detector to confirm persistent smoke conditions before entering alarm. This feature further reduces false alarms in environments where temporary smoke levels may be expected.
