Currently out of warehouse. Contact sales@plenasupply.com for lead time on incoming stock.
The System Sensor 2W-B is a commercial 2-wire smoke detector engineered for compatible conventional fire alarm systems. As part of the System Sensor i3 Series, it utilizes photoelectric smoke sensing with automatic drift compensation to provide dependable smoke detection while helping minimize nuisance alarms caused by dust accumulation and environmental changes.
Its low-profile housing, plug-in detector head, and dual-color LED indicators simplify installation, maintenance, and routine testing. This product is intended exclusively for commercial fire alarm installations.
Product Functions
- Detects airborne smoke
- Initiates alarm conditions through compatible fire alarm control panels
- Automatic drift compensation
- Continuous smoke monitoring
- Dual-color LED status indication
- Magnetic functional testing
- Maintenance notification with compatible modules
- Supports routine inspection and servicing
Electrical & System Information
The System Sensor 2W-B operates on compatible 2-wire conventional initiating device circuits with an operating voltage range of 8.5–35 VDC. Automatic drift compensation and smoothing algorithms continuously adjust detector sensitivity to maintain dependable operation over time.
When paired with the optional 2W-MOD2 maintenance module, the detector supports remote maintenance indication and loop testing from the fire alarm control panel without requiring individual detector testing.
Mounting & Design
The 2W-B includes an integrated mounting base compatible with 3½-inch and 4-inch octagonal boxes, single-gang boxes, and 4-inch square electrical boxes with plaster rings. It may also be mounted directly to drywall using the supplied anchors where permitted by applicable codes.
The plug-in detector head allows quick removal for cleaning, inspection, testing, or replacement without disturbing the installed field wiring.
