Apollo Soteria Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector – Isolated (SA5100-700APO)

The Apollo Soteria Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector – Isolated (SA5100-700APO) uses new optical sensing technology, PureLight, to detect smoke particles entering the chamber and is fitted with 2 thermistors for detecting heat.

Apollo Soteria Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector – Isolated (Part No. SA5100-700APO)

The Apollo Soteria Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector – Isolated (SA5100-700APO) combines advanced optical smoke detection and heat sensing in a single intelligent detector. Using Apollo’s PureLight optical sensing technology, the detector constantly monitors for smoke particles while dual thermistors provide accurate heat detection, providing better fire recognition and improved resistance to false alarms.

The detector can be set to detect smoke only, heat only, or a combination of smoke and heat, making it able be tailored to the specific requirements of the protected area. This flexibility makes the SA5100-700APO fitting for a wide range of commercial, hospitality, healthcare, and office environments.

The detector incorporates an integrated switchable isolator that helps protect the fire alarm loop against short-circuit faults, making the overall system reliability better. In addition, drift compensation constantly adjusts detector sensitivity to make up for dust accumulation, helping maintain consistent performance over time and reducing maintenance requirements.

Designed for use with Apollo’s latest CoreProtocol communications, the detector remains mechanically compatible with existing Apollo bases and supports XP95 and Discovery systems, making upgrades and retrofits straightforward.
