DSC FSA-410AST Smoke Detectors
I was looking at the specs for the DSC FSA-410AST smoke detector today, as =
I have a customer who needs his 8 smokes replaced on a DSC 5010. I was con=
cerned about moving them to a PGM to allow for keypad reset, as it may not =
provide enough current. I was a bit surprised to find the following:
Maximum Standby Current: 12=CE=BCA@12 or 24 VDC
Maximum Alarm Current: 25mA - 90mA
The maximum alarm current depends on which specific model you're looking at=
, and they have a chart for that... so that's fine.
However... 12=CE=BCA of standby current? Really? That means I could power=
25,000 smokes on a 300mA PGM output. This sounds like a typo to me. Perh=
aps it was supposed to be 12mA?
Either way, it looks like 8 smokes on a PGM will be fine.
