Upgrade Your Fire Detection: The New Multi-Criteria Detector from Notifier & AFA Protective Systems

Fire detection technology continues to evolve, and the latest advancement from Notifier brings enhanced accuracy, reduced false alarms, and superior protection. The new FPTI-951 Multi-Criteria Detector is an intelligent, addressable device that replaces the legacy FAPT-851 Series. This state-of-the-art detector combines photoelectric, thermal, and infrared (PTIR) sensors to detect multiple components of a fire, ensuring faster and more reliable detection while minimizing nuisance alarms.

Advanced Fire Detection with Multi-Sensor Technology
Traditional smoke detectors rely on a single sensing method, making them more susceptible to false alarms triggered by dust, steam, or theater smoke. The FPTI-951’s multi-criteria approach improves fire detection by analyzing multiple factors simultaneously. With sophisticated algorithms optimizing sensor performance, this detector provides:

  • Enhanced sensitivity to real fires while rejecting nuisance particulates
  • Heightened immunity to false alarms caused by non-fire-related particulates
  • Reliable performance in moderate to heavy nuisance environments, making it ideal for theaters, commercial kitchens, and industrial spaces
