GAMEWELL ASD-PL3 Commercial Smoke Detector

The Gamewell-FCI ASD-PL3 is a commercial smoke detector designed for compatible Gamewell-FCI fire alarm systems. Specifically, its redesigned optical sensing chamber detects smoke produced by a wide range of combustion sources while providing individual point identification within the protected building.

Built for dependable commercial performance, the ASD-PL3 features panel-adjustable sensitivity, rotary address switches, dual LED status indicators, magnetic functional testing, and a modern low-profile housing. In addition, its bright white finish complements contemporary commercial interiors.

This product is intended exclusively for commercial fire alarm installations. It is not surveillance equipment, a recording device, tracking equipment, or a consumer electronic product. Honeywell currently lists the ASD-PL3 as discontinued, so buyers should confirm system compatibility and product condition before purchase.

Protection & Applications

The ASD-PL3 is designed for commercial fire alarm systems that require dependable smoke detection and individual device identification.

Typical protection includes:

• Commercial smoke detection
• Building life-safety systems
• Early fire warning
• Open-area smoke detection
• Approved duct applications
• Property protection
• Occupant protection

The detector carries listings for open-area protection and approved duct applications. Always follow NFPA 72, local codes, the authority having jurisdiction, and the manufacturer’s installation instructions.

Compatibility

The standard Gamewell-FCI ASD-PL3 is designed for compatible Gamewell-FCI control panels operating with the Velociti protocol.

Compatible bases may include:

• B501-WHITE 4-Inch Flangeless Base
• B300-6 6-Inch Flanged Base
• B200SR-WH Sounder Base
• B200S-WH Addressable Sounder Base
• B200SR-LF-WH Low-Frequency Sounder Base
• B200S-LF-WH Addressable Low-Frequency Sounder Base
• B224RB-WH Relay Base
• B224BI-WH Isolator Base

The ASD-PL3 should not be confused with:

• ASD-PL3-IV: Ivory service model supporting Velociti and CLIP
• ASD-PL3R: Remote-test version intended for compatible duct detector housings
• ASD-PTL3: Smoke detector with supplemental thermal sensing

Before purchasing or installing this detector, verify the control-panel protocol, detector base, color, model suffix, and project requirements.
