Product Description
Overview
The Texecom AGB-0003 Exodus FT64 is a fixed temperature heat detector with a 64°C activation point, built for professional fire and security alarm installs. It does not detect smoke — it triggers purely on ambient heat, which is the point.
Key specs
- Activation: fixed at 64°C
- Wiring: 12V 4-wire configuration
- Output: built-in alarm relay for direct control panel connection
- Compliance: EN54-5 fire detection standard
- Detection method: microprocessor-controlled thermal detection algorithms
- Commissioning: alarm simulation test button fitted as standard
Wiring and panel integration
The 12V 4-wire configuration with integrated alarm relay allows direct connection to conventional fire or intruder alarm control panels — no interface module required on compatible zones. Confirm the panel/zone supports 4-wire conventional heat detectors before specifying.
Where to fit it
Because it's heat-only, not smoke-only, the FT64 suits kitchens, garages and dusty environments where smoke detectors are prone to nuisance alarms. EN54-5 compliance makes it appropriate for specified fire detection zones on professional installs.
Commissioning
The alarm simulation test button lets installers trigger a test alarm condition without waiting for the ambient temperature to reach 64°C, useful for commissioning and periodic maintenance checks.
