Fixed-Temperature & Rate-of-Rise Heat Detection
The Alula RE617 wireless heat detector monitors for two different heat conditions. Its fixed-temperature sensor responds when the surrounding temperature reaches approximately 135°F (57°C), while its rate-of-rise function can respond to a rapid increase in temperature. This dual detection approach helps identify developing heat conditions without relying on smoke sensing.
Alula identifies the RE617 as suitable for locations such as kitchens and garages, where environmental conditions may make a dedicated heat alarm more appropriate than a conventional smoke detector. Always follow applicable codes, manufacturer instructions and system design requirements when determining detector placement.

RE617 Heat Alarm vs. Smoke Alarm
| Feature | Alula RE617 Heat Alarm | Typical Smoke Alarm |
|---|---|---|
| Primary Detection | Heat | Smoke |
| Fixed Heat Detection | 135°F | Model dependent |
| Rate-of-Rise Detection | Yes | Model dependent |
| Smoke Detection | No | Yes |
| Typical Use | Areas where heat detection is specified | Areas requiring smoke detection |
A heat alarm and a smoke alarm perform different life-safety functions and should not automatically be substituted for one another. Select and locate detection devices according to the system design, applicable codes and manufacturer instructions.
Alula Connect+ Compatibility
The RE617 Connect+ Encrypted Heat Alarm is part of Alula's Connect+ sensor family and is designed to communicate wirelessly with compatible Alula Connect+ equipment. For replacement applications, verify that RE617 is the exact sensor model required by the existing system before ordering.
Similar Alula life-safety devices can use different sensing technologies, wireless frequencies or system families. Matching the manufacturer part number and control platform helps prevent compatibility issues during enrollment and installation.
