APOLLO 55000-316 Used Working Series 65 Smoke Detector

Product Overview

The Apollo 55000-316 is a high-reliability Series 65 Optical Smoke Detector designed for use in conventional fire alarm systems. Utilizing a sophisticated light-scattering sensing chamber, this detector is exceptionally effective at detecting slow-burning or smoldering fires, which often produce larger visible smoke particles. It is engineered with a wide operating voltage (9V to 33V DC), making it compatible with a vast array of fire panels. This Used Working unit provides a cost-effective solution for facility managers looking to maintain existing fire safety systems with proven, industry-standard hardware.

Key Features

• Optical Sensing Technology: Uses an internal LED and photo-diode arrangement to detect smoke via light scattering, reducing false alarms from non-combustion sources.
• Wide Operating Voltage: Works seamlessly between 9V and 33V DC, ensuring compatibility with both 12V and 24V conventional fire systems.
• Sleek Low-Profile Design: Complements modern interior aesthetics while maintaining high visibility for safety inspections.
• 360° Visibility: Features an integrated clear LED indicator that flashes during normal operation (if configured) and latches red upon alarm, visible from any angle.
• Wind Insensitive: The optical design ensures stable operation even in areas with high air movement or ventilation.
• Easy Maintenance: Designed for quick "twist-and-lock" installation into standard Series 65 bases (sold separately).
• Proven Reliability: Part of the globally recognized Apollo Series 65 range, known for durability in commercial and industrial environments.

Item Condition (Used - Working)

• Functional Status: Used - Working. This detector has been professionally removed from a decommissioned system. It has been bench-tested with a smoke simulator to ensure the sensing chamber triggers the alarm state and resets correctly.
• Physical State: Clean condition. The external casing has been wiped down, and the sensing mesh is free of significant dust or debris. Some minor UV yellowing of the plastic may be present, consistent with age.
• Technical Integrity: The terminal contacts on the base-interface are clean and free of corrosion.
• Warning: Fire safety equipment should always be re-tested by a certified technician upon installation into a life-safety system.
• Visual Reference: Please refer to the high-resolution images to verify the manufacture date and certification marks; the unit pictured is the exact Apollo 55000-316 you will receive.
