The detector operates across a wide sensitivity range of 1.1 to 3.5 percent per foot and carries UL listing. Built-in drift compensation and a dirty detector warning circuit help maintain accurate detection performance over time. The low-profile housing is constructed from durable plastic in an off-white finish, allowing it to blend with standard ceiling surfaces. A licensed fire alarm technician or electrical contractor performs installation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe pad300-pd is intended for analog addressable fire alarm systems that use the PAD protocol. It is suited for commercial and residential applications where addressable detection is required. The detector communicates with the control panel over a digital communication path, and the system analyzes data at the device level. Total polling speed is less than five seconds, meeting UL requirements. The detector mounts to any PAD300 series base, which is sold separately, via a simple twist-on connection. Field addressing is accomplished through DIP switches located on the rear of the unit, requiring no special programming tools.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAnalog addressable photoelectric detection compatible with PAD protocol fire alarm control panels\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSensitivity range of 1.1 to 3.5 percent per foot with UL listing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in drift compensation maintains detection accuracy as the sensor ages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDirty detector warning provides early notification of maintenance needs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDIP switch addressing allows field programming without special tools\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwist-on mounting compatible with any PAD300 series detector base (base not included)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-profile off-white plastic housing designed to blend with ceiling finishes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eCompatible with fire alarm control panels that utilize the Potter Addressable Device (PAD) protocol.

Disconnect power from the fire alarm control panel before handling addressable devices or wiring the base. Set the DIP switch address before mounting the detector to the base to avoid re-removal. Do not paint or apply any coating to the detector, as this can impair smoke entry and trigger false alarms.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDetection Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: Photoelectric\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Analog Addressable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProtocol\u003c\/strong\u003e: Potter Addressable Device (PAD)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSensitivity Range\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.1 to 3.5 percent per foot\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePolling Speed\u003c\/strong\u003e: Less than 5 seconds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHousing Material\u003c\/strong\u003e: Plastic\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHousing Color\u003c\/strong\u003e: Off-white\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAddressing Method\u003c\/strong\u003e: DIP switches (rear of detector)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eListing\u003c\/strong\u003e: UL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBase\u003c\/strong\u003e: Not included; compatible with PAD300 series bases\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: POTTER ELECTRIC SIGNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: pad300-pd\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"POTTER ELECTRIC SIGNAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51524587454770,"sku":"PAD300-PD","price":90.71,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/9e2bd41d93190e0778a353e4be9fce61_78e86ce7-d597-45ec-93d1-db304ed406ff.jpg?v=1785452516","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/potter-electric-signal-pad300-pd-photoelectric-smoke-detector","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
