XP95A and Discovery Smoke & Heat Detectors
Installation Instructions
General
These instructions apply to Apollo detector base 45681-210, to variants of this base and to
the associated ranges of UL listed XP95A and Discovery detectors which are listed overleaf.
Installation
These products must be installed in accordance with the applicable NFPA standards, local
codes and jurisdictional authorities. Failure to follow these instructions may result in failure
of the detectors to report an alarm condition. Apollo Fire Detectors Limited is not responsi-
ble for detectors which are improperly installed, maintained and tested.
The FM approval for these initiating devices does not include or imply approval of the
control unit to which it may be connected. In order to maintain an FM approved system,
these initiating devices must be listed with an FM approved compatible control panel. For
more information on RTI classi
fi
cation refer to FM class standard 3210.
Before installing these products check the continuity, polarity and insulation resistance of all
wiring. Check that installation is in accordance with the
fi
re system drawings and conforms
to all applicable local codes such as NFPA 72.
Use 3" octagonal box for direct connection to the base. 4" octagonal and 4" square boxes
may be used with proper UL listed mounting brackets. When mounting on a wall, install 4" to
12" from the ceiling. Use 3M Weatherban 606 Non-Flammable sealing compound (or equiv-
alent) to seal
fi
eld wiring conduit opening in the electrical box, this will reduce the stack
effect. Secure the base to the electrical box with appropriate screws.
Do not overtighten
the screws.
The raised mark on the side of the base indicates the direction of the detec-
tor LED when
fi
tted. Connect the shield, if required, to the SHIELD terminal on the base. For
information on how to set the address of each device correctly refer to the section 'Address
Setting' overleaf.
