Brk Electronics 1046836 Aspiration Smoke Detector

Product Description

The BRK ELECTRONICS 1046836 is an aspiration-style smoke detection unit designed for AC/DC operation. Aspiration smoke detectors draw air samples through a pipe network into a detection chamber, allowing early detection of smoke before it becomes visible or reaches threshold levels for standard point detectors. This unit is sold individually and is typically installed by licensed electricians or fire-alarm system technicians in commercial or light industrial applications where early-warning detection is required by code.

Aspiration smoke detection systems are commonly specified in data centers, clean rooms, storage facilities, and other environments where early smoke detection is critical and traditional spot detectors may not meet response-time requirements. The 1046836 supports AC/DC operation, making it suitable for installations requiring dual-power compatibility. Installation must comply with applicable local fire and electrical codes, including NFPA 72 requirements for smoke detection systems.

Key Features

• Aspiration-type detection draws air samples for early smoke identification
• AC/DC operation supports flexible power configurations
• Sold as a single unit (each)
• Suitable for commercial and light industrial aspiration detection systems

Compatibility

Designed for use in aspiration smoke detection systems requiring AC/DC-compatible detection components. No specific compatible model numbers or system families were provided in the available product data.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed electrician or certified fire-alarm technician in accordance with NFPA 72 and all applicable local codes. Disconnect and lock out all power sources before servicing or replacing any detection components. Aspiration piping network design and detector placement must follow manufacturer guidelines and fire-code requirements for the specific occupancy type. Do not modify the sampling pipe network without recalculating system airflow and detection coverage.
