The Gentex SHRR (Gentex part number 917-0073-002) is a 120 VAC single/multiple-station photoelectric smoke alarm. It includes an isolated 135 °F thermal with rate of rise and two sets of Form A/Form C dry contacts.
First, photoelectric light-scattering sensing detects smoke. Then, the isolated thermal element triggers on a 135 °F fixed-temperature alarm or on a rapid rise in ambient temperature. As a result, the SHRR combines two independent initiating technologies in a single 120 VAC alarm.
Gentex SHRR Specifications
Operating voltage is 120 VAC, 60 Hz, with a 9 V alkaline battery for backup. The operating current is 0.055 A. Furthermore, nominal smoke sensitivity is 2.5% obscuration. The temporal-3 piezo horn produces 85 dBA at 10 ft (3100 Hz nominal).
Operating ambient temperature is 40 °F to 100 °F. The unit measures 5.5″ × 5.5″ overall (5.0″ × 5.0″ at the base) with a 1.75″ depth. In addition, the SHRR uses a unique wiring harness that is not interchangeable with other S Series models.
Relay Outputs
The SHRR provides two sets of Form A and Form C auxiliary relay contacts. Relays operate on battery backup. Contact ratings are 1.0 A @ 30 VDC max, 0.3 A @ 125 VAC max, and 0.3 A @ 220 VAC max (resistive load). Additionally, one set is dedicated to smoke alarm contacts; the other set serves the heat alarm output.
