ATJ-EA FIXED TEMP/RATE OF RISE HEAT SENSOR
APPLICATION
The Hochiki America ATJ-EA Fixed Temperature / Rate
of Rise sensors provide accurate temperature
measurement data to the fire alarm control panel. These
sensors are well-suited for environments where dust,
cooking fumes or other factors make the use of smoke
sensors impractical.
OPERATION
STANDARD FEATURES
Low profile - Only 2.00" high, including base
Simple and reliable device addressing method
Uses the noise immune Digital Communication
Protocol (DCP), which utilizes interrupts for fast
response to fires
Rate of Rise temperature threshold = 15F/Min
(determined by panel)
Adjustable threshold temperature = 135F - 190F
(determined by panel)
UL maximum spacing of 70 feet

The ATJ-EA incorporates a highly linear thermistor circuit.
The specially designed cover protects the thermistor
while allowing maximum air flow. The thermistor circuit
produces a voltage proportional to the temperature; this
information is transmitted to the control panel as a digital
value. When the ambient temperature exceeds a preprogrammed threshold (fixed temp or rate of rise), the
sensor transmits an interrupt to the control panel
indicating a fire alarm. The fire alarm control panel can
adjust the sensor's fixed temperature threshold for
different installation requirements.
Up to 127 devices may be installed on each SLC loop.
The sensor address may be set by a hand-held
programming unit. The sensor mounts to an electronicsfree base and incorporates a locking mechanism for
security. The base provides mounting slots, terminals
for field wiring and a third terminal for a remote indicator/
LED. The sensor has dual LEDs for easy viewing of the
sensor status.
ENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS
Heat sensors are installed in accordance with NFPA
(National Fire Protection Association) 72, the UL Listed
Spacing Requirements and the rules and regulations set
forth by the local authorities having jurisdiction. The contractor shall furnish and install, where indicated on the
plans, Fixed Temp / Rate of Rise Automatic heat sensors.

ENGINEERING SPECIFICATIONS, continued
The Sensor and Base shall be UL listed as compatible with the fire alarm control panel (FACP).
The base shall permit direct interchange with the Hochiki America ALG-V photoelectric smoke sensor, ALK-V/ALK-V2
Photoelectric type sensor AIE-EA ionization type smoke sensor, ATG-EA heat sensor, and the ACA-V Multi-Criteria
sensor.
The vandal-resistant, security locking feature shall be used in those areas as indicated on the drawing. The locking
feature shall be optional and can be implemented when required.
It shall be possible for the control panel to perform a functional test of the sensor without heat. The test method shall
simulate the effects of heat on the device to insure testing of internal circuitry.
BASES
The HOCHIKI America HSB-NSA-6 and the YBN-NSA-4 mounting bases are electronic free and are a simple, rugged
design with screw terminals for wiring connections. A common mounting base allows sensor interchange and maintains loop continuity when sensors are removed. A simple anti-tamper head locking system is provided which is
enabled by removing a small plastic tab on the back of the sensor. Once locked, the head can be removed using a
small diameter screwdriver.

NOTE: Fire alarm control panel compatibility is required for DCP products.
DCP communications protocol allows system components (DCP sensors AIE-EA, ALG-V, ACA-V,
ACC-V, ALK-V, ALN-V, ATJ-EA and ATG-EA, bases and modules) to be used concurrently on a system's
SLC (Signaling Line Circuit).
