FAAST XS Aspirating Smoke Detectors Now Available for Smaller Applications

Jul 01, 2015

System Sensor is pleased to announce a new addition to the FAAST line of aspirating smoke detectors: FAAST XS. This device is ideal for smaller applications and uses the same trusted, innovative technology.

“FAAST XS is a small but powerful device,” said Sr. Manager of Product Marketing for System Sensor, Christa Poss. “It has a variable speed fan which allows users to select the best coverage for their space – up to 5,000 square feet – all in a single model. Plus it’s a more affordable option for small spaces.”

FAAST XS brings all the capabilities of FAAST Aspiration Smoke Detection – such as three-stage filtration, Very Early Warning Fire Detection, increased nuisance immunity, and various built in connectivity options – to a broader range of applications. Used with FAAST’s PipeIQ software, you can design, configure, and monitor any FAAST device within the product family.
