Detect fires fast and eliminate false alarms with S-Quad accuracy. Gent by Honeywell’s LPCB approved S-Quad sensor range for Vigilon is the most innovative solution to the detection and signalling of fires available on the market today. This advanced sensing technology is coupled with an integral sounder with speech capability and strobe in the same device. The S-Quad sensor leaves the Gent factory in the Sensitivity State 0 which is suitable for many applications. However, S-Quad is an amazing sensor that can do so much more for you! - Use the S-Quad Selector to choose the very best ‘state’ to ensure the S-Quad sensor provides its optimum performance. - Simplify the process for setting the optimum sensitivity state you need for a particular application. This sensor state can be selected and fixed within an environment, or individual sensors can be programmed to operate during specific time periods.
