SKU:
KD-302-EPM-135

The 302-EPM-135 brings reliable heat detection into hazardous locations - a hermetically sealed, self-restoring sensor rated for explosionproof mounting where a standard detector isn't safe to install.

Built for the commercial fire installer

Rate compensation offsets thermal lag so the sensor responds appropriately to both slow and fast temperature rises, alarming at its rated 135°F regardless of how quickly the space heats up. The hexagonal grip bushing threads onto a JALX-11 explosionproof outlet body (or equivalent), hand-tightened only, and the shell automatically resets once the surrounding temperature drops back down - no manual reset needed.

Key features

  • 135°F (57.2°C) rated, self-restoring, no manual reset
  • Rate compensation offsets thermal lag on both slow and fast temperature rises
  • Explosionproof mounting for hazardous locations, indoor use only
