Hochiki Products

Hochiki fire detection equipment here spans ESP analogue addressable detectors and modules, conventional smoke and heat detectors, detector and sounder bases, loop-powered sounders and beacons, manual call points, the Ekho hybrid wireless range, flame and aspirating smoke detectors, and the TCH-B200 address programmer. The page also carries Hochiki liquid leak detection, emergency lighting and exit signs, and the mounting boxes and brackets that finish an installation.

Choosing Hochiki Products

Check whether the fire panel runs Hochiki ESP addressable loops or conventional zones, because detectors, bases and modules are chosen to match it.

Addressable ESP devices

The ALN-EN (BLACK) is an analogue addressable photoelectric smoke detector with a removable chamber and variable sensitivity, and the ATJ-EN(WHT) multi-heat detector combines a fixed temperature element with a rate-of-rise element and is approved to EN54-5. The HCP-E(BLU)-SCI manual call point has an integral short-circuit isolator, as does the YBN-R/3-SCI base. The TCH-B200 hand held programmer addresses ESP sensors and other addressable devices.

Conventional detectors

The SOC-E3N photoelectric smoke detector suits the majority of existing conventional systems and has drift compensation. Heat detectors include the DCD-AE3 rate of rise detector with a 60 °C fixed element, the DFJ-CE3 90°C fixed temperature detector, and the DFG-60BLKJ, an IP67 60 °C detector for wet or hosed-down areas that needs no separate base. CDX range detectors fit bases such as the YBN-R/6, only 8 mm deep with a remote indicator output.

Sounders, beacons and call points

The CHQ-WSB2 is a loop powered wall sounder beacon with a variable output of 90 ~ 102 dB(A) and an auto shutdown mode. Ceiling beacons such as the CHQ-CB/WL are loop powered with a 0.5/1 Hz flash, and the CCP-W conventional call point is weatherproof to IP67.

Wireless and special detection

In the Ekho hybrid wireless range, the EK-WL8-TRH loop-powered translator joins wireless devices to the loop and the EK-WL8-O optical smoke sensor runs on lithium battery technology. The DRD-E flame detector covers a 90° cone up to and including 25 m, and the FIRELINK-100 aspirating detector takes 2 sampling pipes up to 100m in aggregate length.

Frequently asked questions

How does a Hochiki addressable smoke detector work?

A Hochiki addressable smoke detector samples air in an optical chamber and sends its readings to the fire panel over the loop under its own address. Because the panel polls the detector individually, an alarm or fault shows the exact device location rather than a whole zone. Hochiki addressable devices use the ESP protocol, so check the panel supports it before choosing detectors.

How does a Hochiki addressable heat detector work?

A Hochiki addressable heat detector measures the air temperature at the ceiling and reports it to the panel, which raises an alarm at a set temperature or a rapid rise. Multi-heat types combine a fixed element with a rate-of-rise element, and the panel can use either one. Heat detection usually suits kitchens and dusty plant rooms where smoke detectors would false alarm.

Where are Hochiki detectors used?

Hochiki detectors are used in commercial and public buildings such as offices, schools, hotels, care homes, warehouses and blocks of flats. Smoke detectors suit general areas, while heat detectors cover kitchens and dusty spaces where smoke would trigger false alarms. Waterproof heat detectors can protect wet or hosed-down areas. The range here includes conventional, addressable and wireless detectors with matching bases.

Are Hochiki fire safety products compliant with UK standards?

Yes, Hochiki fire detection devices are typically approved to the relevant part of EN 54, the standard family UK fire alarm systems follow. For example, heat detectors are tested to EN 54-5, and some devices also carry LPCB certification. Check the approval marked on the device matches its role in the system before fitting it.
