Apollo Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector 58000-700 for Intelligent Fire Detection

The Apollo Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector 58000-700 offers a practical and reliable solution for commercial buildings, offices, hospitals, hotels, educational facilities, warehouses, residential developments, and other fire detection applications. Designed with optical smoke and thermistor heat-sensing technology, it helps detect developing fire conditions while supporting improved false alarm management.

For contractors, fire protection engineers, building owners, facility managers, maintenance teams, and fire alarm system installers, choosing the right Apollo Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector can help improve early fire detection, provide accurate device identification, and support dependable building fire safety.

What Is an Apollo Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector?

The Apollo Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector 58000-700 is an analogue-addressable fire detector designed to monitor both smoke particles and temperature changes inside a protected area.

It contains an optical smoke sensor and a thermistor temperature sensor. The information from both sensing elements is combined to provide the final analogue signal sent to the compatible fire alarm control panel.

This detector is commonly installed in addressable fire alarm systems where flexible detection, automatic operation, individual device identification, and improved false alarm management are required. (Apollo Fire Detectors)

Key Benefits of Apollo Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector

Combined Smoke and Heat Detection

The Apollo Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector monitors both smoke and temperature conditions. Combining two sensing technologies helps the fire alarm system detect different developing fire conditions while improving overall detection performance.

Improved False Alarm Management

The detector combines signals from its optical smoke sensor and thermistor heat sensor. This helps provide improved false alarm management in environments where temporary smoke-like particles or changing conditions may affect ordinary detectors. (Apollo Fire Detectors)

Five Operating Modes

The Apollo Discovery 58000-700 provides five operating modes that allow the detector response to be selected based on the protected environment and project requirements.

The available modes include high-sensitivity smoke detection, smoke-only detection, medium-sensitivity smoke detection, low-sensitivity smoke detection with increased heat enhancement, and A1 heat detection. (Apollo Fire Detectors)

Drift Compensation

The Apollo Discovery multisensor detector features drift compensation to help maintain consistent sensitivity as environmental contamination gradually affects the optical sensing chamber.

Regular inspection, testing, and cleaning are still required to maintain dependable detector performance. (Apollo Fire Detectors)

Suitable for Different Fire Conditions

The detector is designed to support the detection of both fast-burning and slow-burning fires. Its selectable operating modes allow the system designer or commissioning engineer to configure the detector according to the expected fire risk and room conditions. (Apollo Fire Detectors)

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

The Apollo Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector works by continuously monitoring the surrounding air for smoke particles and temperature changes.

When smoke enters the optical sensing chamber, light is scattered toward the internal receiving sensor. At the same time, the thermistor monitors the surrounding temperature.

The detector processes these conditions according to its selected operating mode and transmits the analogue information to the compatible fire alarm control panel.

When the detected condition reaches the programmed alarm level, the fire alarm panel identifies the detector and activates the appropriate alarm, warning, or control response.

Common Applications of Apollo Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector

An Apollo Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector 58000-700 may be considered for the following applications:

• Commercial buildings

• Office buildings

• Hospitals and healthcare facilities

• Hotels and guest accommodations

• Universities and educational facilities

• Warehouses

• Residential buildings

• Care homes

• Restaurants and cafés

• Clean rooms

• Medium- and large-scale facilities

• Building corridors and common areas

• Fire alarm system upgrades

• General indoor fire detection applications

The final detector type, operating mode, quantity, and location should be determined by a qualified fire alarm designer based on the building environment and applicable fire safety requirements. (Apollo Fire Detectors)

Why Choose an Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector?

An optical and heat multisensor detector is often selected when a fire alarm system requires flexible detection, addressable monitoring, and improved management of unwanted alarms.

Compared with detectors that use only one sensing method, a multisensor detector evaluates both smoke and temperature conditions. This can help provide a more suitable response for different fire risks and environmental conditions.

The Apollo Discovery Optical/Heat Multisensor Detector 58000-700 provides a practical solution for projects where contractors and engineers require dependable fire detection, individual device addressing, selectable response modes, and compatibility with suitable Apollo fire alarm systems.

For commercial, institutional, residential, and industrial building applications, the Apollo Discovery multisensor detector is a useful option for systems requiring combined smoke and heat monitoring.

Important Considerations Before Buying

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

• Complete product part number

• Fire alarm control panel compatibility

• Required Apollo communication protocol

• Compatible detector mounting base

• Required operating mode

• Building and room application

• Expected smoke and heat conditions

• Operating temperature requirement

• Indoor environmental conditions

• Detector spacing and installation location

• Required approval or project specification
