Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector 58000-305

The Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector 58000-305 offers a practical and intelligent fire detection solution for hotels, hospitals, offices, warehouses, educational facilities, accommodation areas, commercial buildings, and other fire protection applications. Designed as an analogue-addressable multisensor detector, it combines carbon monoxide sensing and heat detection to help identify different developing fire conditions.

For fire protection contractors, engineers, consultants, building owners, facility managers, maintenance teams, and fire alarm installers, choosing the right Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector can help improve early fire detection, support accurate device identification, reduce unwanted alarms in suitable environments, and strengthen overall building fire safety.

What Is an Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector?

The Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector 58000-305 is an analogue-addressable fire detector designed to monitor both carbon monoxide produced during combustion and changes in the surrounding temperature.

It contains a carbon monoxide sensing cell and a thermistor heat sensor. Information from both sensing elements is processed and combined to produce the final analogue signal transmitted to a compatible fire alarm control panel.

This detector is commonly installed in addressable fire alarm systems where flexible detection, accurate device identification, and improved false alarm management are required.

Because it monitors both carbon monoxide and temperature, the Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector can help detect slow-burning or smouldering fires, as well as fires that produce a noticeable increase in heat.

Key Benefits of Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector

Combined Carbon Monoxide and Heat Detection

The Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector combines two sensing technologies in one device. Its carbon monoxide cell helps detect gases commonly produced by smouldering fires, while its thermistor monitors temperature changes associated with developing fire conditions.

Helps Detect Smouldering Fires

Some fires may develop slowly and release carbon monoxide before producing heavy smoke or intense heat. The detector’s CO-sensing element helps identify these conditions, making it suitable for selected environments where deep-seated or slow-burning fires may occur.

Five Selectable Operating Modes

The Apollo Discovery 58000-305 provides five selectable operating modes. These allow the detector’s response characteristics to be configured according to the protected area, expected fire risk, environmental conditions, and approved fire alarm system design.

Improved False Alarm Management

The detector can be less affected by some common sources of unwanted alarms that may activate conventional smoke detectors, including steam, dust, cooking aerosols, hairspray, and similar airborne particles.

However, the detector must not be installed in areas where carbon monoxide is normally present unless specifically assessed and approved for the application.

Analogue-Addressable Operation

The detector operates as part of an analogue-addressable fire alarm system. Each device can be assigned a unique address, allowing the compatible control panel to identify the exact detector reporting an alarm, fault, or monitored condition.

Remote Testing Capability

The Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector supports remote testing through a compatible fire alarm system. This can help authorized technicians perform inspection, testing, and system maintenance more efficiently.

Local Alarm Indicator

A built-in red indicator provides a visible local alarm signal when the detector enters an alarm condition. This helps technicians and building personnel quickly identify the affected device during inspection or emergency response.

How Does an Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector Work?

The Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector continuously monitors carbon monoxide levels and changes in temperature within the protected area.

During a slow-developing or smouldering fire, combustion may produce carbon monoxide before large quantities of visible smoke or intense heat are generated. The detector’s CO cell monitors these changes.

At the same time, the thermistor monitors the surrounding temperature. When heat increases because of a developing fire, the heat-sensing element contributes to the detector’s overall response.

The detector processes the information from both sensors and sends the resulting analogue value to the compatible fire alarm control panel. The panel then evaluates the signal according to the programmed detector mode and system configuration.

This combined operation helps provide flexible detection for different fire conditions while supporting improved alarm decision-making.

Common Applications of Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector

An Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector 58000-305 may be considered for the following applications:

• Hotels and guest accommodation

• Bedrooms and sleeping areas

• Hospitals and healthcare facilities

• Offices and commercial buildings

• Universities and educational facilities

• Warehouses and storage areas

• Institutional buildings

• Selected residential developments

• Rooms with a risk of smouldering fires

• Commercial and industrial fire alarm systems

The detector should be installed only in locations suitable for carbon monoxide and heat detection based on the approved fire alarm system design.

Why Choose a CO/Heat Multisensor Detector?

A CO/Heat multisensor detector is often selected when a protected area requires detection of both slow-burning fire conditions and temperature increases.

Compared with a detector that uses only one sensing technology, a multisensor detector can provide a broader evaluation of developing fire conditions.

The Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector provides a practical option for projects requiring:

• Detection of smouldering fires

• Heat monitoring

• Addressable device identification

• Flexible response modes

• Improved unwanted alarm management

• Remote testing capability

• Compatibility with Apollo Discovery systems

For hotels, hospitals, offices, educational facilities, warehouses, and other suitable buildings, the detector can help support intelligent and dependable fire detection.

Important Considerations Before Buying

Before selecting an Apollo Discovery CO/Heat Multisensor Detector, it is important to confirm the following:

• Compatibility with the fire alarm control panel

• Apollo Discovery protocol requirement

• Required detector operating mode

• Approved mounting base

• Protected area and occupancy type

• Expected fire risk

• Presence of normal carbon monoxide sources

• Operating temperature

• Humidity and environmental conditions

• Device addressing requirements

• Detector spacing and coverage

• Applicable fire code and project specification

• Required product approvals

• System testing and commissioning requirements

The detector should not be installed close to normal carbon monoxide sources such as vehicle exhaust, open flames, gas appliances, fuel-burning equipment, or certain chemical vapours, unless the location has been properly assessed.

Correct detector selection, positioning, programming, testing, and maintenance are important to help ensure reliable fire alarm system performance.

Inspection and Maintenance Recommendations

Regular inspection and maintenance should include:

• Checking the detector for dust, dirt, paint, damage, or obstruction

• Confirming that the detector is properly secured to its mounting base

• Verifying communication with the fire alarm control panel

• Checking the programmed device address
