Model DCD-AE3 is a Rate of Rise Heat Detector with a 60 °C fixed temperature element using a thermistor and linearising circuit to provide an accurate linear response Heat Detector.

The DCD-AE3 is ideal for use where medium ambient temperatures exist, such as drying rooms or where Smoke Detectors are unsuitable because of the presence of steam or cooking fumes such as in a kitchen.

The DCD-AE3 is supported by a range of bases for different applications and these are supported on the majority of conventional systems.  A third terminal provides remote indicator output.
