DIY Ademco Security Alarm Equipment - Fire Detectors

Honeywell’s 5808W3 is a 3V lithium powered, photoelectronic smoke/heat
detector with a built-in wireless transmitter. It is intended for use with any 5800
Series Wireless Receiver/Transceiver for residential installations.

The transmitter can send alarm, tamper, maintenance (when control panels
are equipped to process maintenance signals), and battery condition
messages to the system’s receiver. Smoothing algorithms minimize nuisance
alarms by smoothing out short term spikes from dust and smoke – virtually
eliminating nuisance alarms.

Since there are no holes to drill or wires to run, you can preserve the beauty of
the building while protecting it. The 5808W3 is an ideal smoke detector for
those difficult to wire locations, applications where room aesthetics are critical,
or where hazardous materials exist.

All models also feature a restorable, built-in, fixed temperature (135°F) thermal
detector that is also capable of sensing a pre-freeze condition if the
temperature is below 41°F.

Features:

Improved Robust RF Field Strength

The distance between the detector and receiver has been significantly

increased without the need for a repeater

Smoothing Algorithms

Mathematical calculations in the detector’s software that minimize

nuisance alarms by smoothing out short term spikes from dust and

smoke

Smart Check

A signal is sent to the control panel when the detector requires

cleaning. This allows a regular, non-emergency service call to clean the

detector before it goes into alarm.

Drift Compensation

Virtually eliminates nuisance alarms from long-term dust build-up by

automatically adjusting the detector’s sensitivity

Removable Detector Cover and Chamber Top

The technician is able to quickly and easily clean the detector chamber

without disassembling the detector head

Approved UL Listings for Residential and Commercial Applications

Both residential and commercial installation requirements are met

Additional LED Status Indicators

Identifying between alarm or trouble conditions is a snap with green

and red LED status indicators. A green LED denotes a normal condition

while the red LED indicates abnormal conditions.

Easy-to-install Mounting Base

The sturdy mounting base allows the detector to be more easily

installed on uneven surfaces (i.e. stucco). The mounting base has

larger mounting ports, which accommodate drywall anchors for easy

surface mounting.
