The Siemens FDBZ492 Duct Smoke Detector P/N: S54319-B22-A1 is a two-wire air-duct smoke detection housing designed for direct use on heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) duct systems. When equipped with a compatible Siemens smoke detector and sampling tube, it detects smoke being transported through the ductwork.
The FDBZ492 supports both addressable and conventional detector applications and is the non-relay configuration within the FDBZ492 family. Siemens currently identifies S54319-B22-A1 as an active product.

Duct Smoke Detection
The FDBZ492 monitors air traveling through an HVAC duct.
A sampling tube extends into the duct and directs a representative air sample through the detector housing. The compatible smoke detector evaluates the sampled air for products of combustion.
When smoke is detected, the installed detector reports the condition to the associated fire alarm control system.
Two-Wire Operation
The FDBZ492 is specifically a:
Two-Wire Air-Duct Housing
It can support either an addressable or conventional detector depending on the compatible detector and fire alarm system configuration.
The housing itself does not include auxiliary control relays.
Non-Relay Configuration
The standard FDBZ492 is the non-relay version of the product family.
Related configurations include:
FDBZ492 — Two-wire housing without relays
FDBZ492-HR — Two-wire addressable housing with programmable relay
FDBZ492-R — Two-wire conventional housing with relay
FDBZ492-PR — Conventional housing with relay and built-in power supply
The FDBZ492 is appropriate where local auxiliary relay contacts are not required.
Compatible Smoke Detectors
Siemens documents the FDBZ492 for use with multiple detector models, including:
8710
FP-11
8854
HFP-11
8713
HFPO-11
PE-11
PE-11C
OP121
OOH941
OOHC941
SFP-11
SFPO-11
Additional detector compatibility can vary by fire alarm platform, so the exact detector and control panel combination should be verified.
Sampling Tubes
The FDBZ492 uses separately selected sampling tubes according to duct width.
Common options include:
ST-10 — Short sampling tube
ST-25 — Medium sampling tube
ST-50 — Longer sampling tube
ST-100 — Sampling tube for large duct widths
The detector and sampling tube are purchased separately from the FDBZ492 housing.
HVAC System Operation
The FDBZ492 is intended to detect smoke carried through HVAC ductwork rather than provide general open-area room detection.
When smoke is detected, the connected fire alarm system can initiate programmed responses such as:
- HVAC shutdown
- Fan control
- Damper control
- Fire alarm annunciation
- Smoke-control sequences
- Building automation interfaces
Actual control functions depend on the fire alarm system programming and associated equipment.
