Safety Technology Int'l Inc STI-9712 Wire Guard Cover

Product Description

The SAFETY TECHNOLOGY INT'L INC STI-9712 is a wire guard cover designed to protect photoelectric smoke detectors from accidental damage, tampering, and environmental interference. Built for use in commercial and institutional settings, this guard fits over a mounted smoke detector to shield it while still allowing normal operation. The cage-style or cover construction keeps the detector in place and functional while reducing the risk of impact damage or intentional interference. It is typically installed by licensed fire alarm technicians or electricians as part of a compliant fire detection system.

The STI-9712 is suited for photoelectric smoke detector installations in areas where detectors are exposed to physical risk, such as warehouses, gymnasiums, corridors, and similar high-traffic or high-activity spaces. It provides a durable layer of protection without obstructing smoke entry or alarm signaling. It is sold as a single unit and is intended for use wherever detector integrity must be maintained in demanding environments.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed fire alarm technician or electrician in accordance with NFPA 72 and applicable local codes.

Verify that the guard does not obstruct the detector's sensing chamber or test port after installation. Do not install in a way that prevents routine testing or maintenance access to the detector.
