1. General Overview

The DCD-A3E is a combined rate-of-rise and fixed temperature heat detector designed for reliable early fire detection.
It integrates two thermal detection principles to ensure optimal performance and compliance with European fire safety standards.


🌡 2. Operating Principle

The detector combines:

✔ Rate-of-Rise Detection

  • Triggers an alarm when a rapid increase in temperature is detected.

  • Provides early warning for fast-developing fires.

✔ Fixed Temperature Detection – 60°C

  • Activates when the ambient temperature reaches 60°C.

  • Classified as A3 according to EN54-5 standard.


📜 3. Standards & Certifications

The detector is:

  • Compliant with EN54-5 European standard (Heat Detectors for Fire Detection and Fire Alarm Systems).

  • Certified by:

    • VdS Schadenverhütung

    • LPCB (Loss Prevention Certification Board)

These certifications confirm high reliability, quality, and compliance with international fire protection requirements.


🏢 4. Typical Applications

Particularly suitable for environments where:

  • Normal temperature fluctuations may cause false alarms with smoke detectors.

  • Dust, steam, or non-fire related smoke is present.

Examples include:

  • Commercial kitchens

  • Boiler rooms

  • Car parks

  • Technical rooms

  • Warehouses


⚙ 5. Key Advantages

  • Dual detection technology for enhanced reliability

  • Reduced risk of false alarms

  • Compatible with EN54 compliant fire alarm systems

  • Certified performance (VdS & LPCB)

  • Suitable for harsh or industrial environments


🛡 6. Summary

The DCD-A3E combined heat detector provides dependable fire detection by integrating rate-of-rise sensing with a fixed 60°C temperature threshold. Fully compliant with EN54-5 and certified by VdS and LPCB, it is an ideal solution for industrial, commercial, and technical applications requiring robust fire protection.
