Detector
SIGA-DHI
Overview
The SIGA-DHI monitors the air temperature near the detector, and
the rate at which this temperature rises by analyzing data from its
on-board thermistor. The rate-of-rise function can quickly detect a
fast, flaming fire, while the fixed-temperature threshold detects fire
when the air temperature near the detector exceeds the pre-set
alarm point.

Application
Heat detectors are most suitable for environments where rapid fire
development can be expected. When selecting the location on the
ceiling for the heat sensor, do not locate it in direct path of hot or
cold air flow. Refer to the detector specifications for the recommended maximum spacing. Earlier detector response may be
obtained by reducing the spacing between detectors.
Installation
Signature Series detectors mount to North American 1-gang
boxes, 3-1/2 inch or 4 inch octagon boxes, and to 4 inch square
electrical boxes 1-1/2 inches (38 mm) deep. They mount to European BESA and 1-gang boxes with 60.3 mm fixing centers. See
mounting base installation and wiring for more information.
Device addressing is electronic, and can be set using a hand-held
tool or panel configuration software.

Accessories
Detector mounting bases have wiring terminals that are accessible from the room-side after mounting the base to the electrical
box. The bases mount to North American 1-gang boxes and to
3 inch or 4 inch octagon boxes, 1 inches (38 mm) deep. They
also mount to European BESA and 1-gang boxes with 60.3 mm
fixing centers. The SIGA-SB4, SIGA-RB4, and SIGA-IB4 mount to
North American 4 inch sq. electrical boxes in addition to the above
boxes. They include the SIGA-TS4 Trim Skirt which is used to
cover the mounting ears on the base. The SIGA-AB4G mounts
to a 4 square box only.

Typical Wiring
The detector mounting bases accept #18 AWG (0.75mm2), #16
(1.0mm2), #14 AWG (1.5mm2), and #12 AWG (2.5mm) wire sizes.
Note: Sizes #16 AWG (1.0mm2) and #18 AWG (0.75mm2) are
preferred for ease of installation.

This detector does not sense fires in areas where heat cannot
reach the detector. Heat from fires in walls, roofs, or on the
opposite side of closed doors may not reach the detector.
This heat detector by itself does not provide life safety protection Use this detector with ionization and/or photoelectric
smoke detectors.
