FAAST XT^®
AAD-9400X
Description
The Gamewell-FCI, Intelligent FAAST XT^®, AAD-9400X
aspirating smoke detectors deliver highly accurate Very
Early Warning Fire Detection over a wide coverage area
directly over the Signaling Line Circuit (SLC) to the fire
alarm control panel via the Velociti protocol. This aspirating
smoke detector combines advanced particle separation
with a unique dual source optical smoke detection technol-
ogy to provide highly sensitive Very Early Warning Fire
Detection while providing enhanced immunity to false
alarms. This technology enables FAAST to accurately
detect incipient fire conditions as early as 60 minutes
before a fire actually starts when set for Early Warning and
Very Early Warning Fire Detection in applications ranging
from mission critical to harsh and extreme environments.
An installed FAAST XT device can protect up to 28,800 sq.
ft. (2,676 sq. m) in the standard coverage type applications.
The Intelligent FAAST XT Detector can be wired to a new
or pre-existing SLC that is used for transmitting communi-
cations directly to a fire alarm control panel, via the Velociti
mode, without using extra hardware. In the Velociti mode,
the AAD-9400X, FAAST XT will report back to the fire
alarm control panel as an aspirating detector. By setting
the sensitivity levels in PipeIQ™, the fire alarm control
panel will initiate pre-alarm and alarm conditions based on
the feedback sent from the FAAST XT unit. Using the
Velociti mode, up to 159 units can populate one SLC.
In addition to providing a direct connection on the SLC, the
FAAST XT device can be monitored in several different
ways, including the following:
• Serial or TCP Modbus^® • Direct PC connection
• Ethernet over a LAN
• FAAST’s onboard USB
When the AAD-9400X is connected to a LAN, the FAAST’s
email server can email event notification to the appropriate
personnel. FAAST also communicates alarm and fault
conditions via Form C Relays.
PipeIQ^® is FAAST’s intuitive design, configuration, and
monitoring software. The all-in-one program can be used
to do the following:
• Create a pipe network tailored to meet site specific
requirements.
• Configure a FAAST device.
• Monitor an installed device including the following:
- live trending
- reading of historic reports
