Kidde KC2-H Conventional Low-Profile, Self-Diagnostic, 2-Wire Detector

The Kidde KC2-H Conventional Low-Profile are interchangeable head and base detectors using Optica smoke sensing technology and high accuracy heat sensor that provides outstanding stability and excellent response to a wide range of fires. Like their Kidde Intelligent series counterparts, KC2 smoke detectors feature a photoelectric chamber using Optica sensing technology providing multi criteria response discriminating real smoke from other nuisance sources. A single tri-color LED located on the housing provides alarm, trouble and standby indications. The KC2 series consist of 3 models; KC2-OS is a multi criteria photoelectric smoke detector delivering a wide sensitivity range with discrimination to nuisance events and built in environmental compensation. KC2-OSH is a multi criteria photoelectric smoke and heat detector delivering a wide sensitivity range with discrimination to nuisance events and built in environmental compensation but also includes a heat sensor with a 135 fixed threshold and rate of rise compensation. KC2-H is a heat only detector comprised of a heat sensor with a 135 fixed threshold and rage of rise compensation. KC2 series detectors are complimented by a range of standard and relay bases for a variety of electrical box applications. And, if they become dirty over time, the KC2 Series detectors automatically adjust the alarm threshold through built-in drift compensation.
