Suspension mounting 

 
Suspending the Smoke Screen range is achieved using the ‘Suspension Kit’ comprising a length of 
Uni-strut, two sections of threaded bar and fixings (1).  Prepare the Smoke Screen by fitting the 
angle brackets as described above.  Fix the required length of M8 threaded bar to the wall bracket 
using 4 x nuts and 4 x 25mm washers (5).  Fix the uni-strut into place.  There are a range of fixings 
to accommodate concrete ceiling, girders etc; if in doubt contact the fixing supplier.  Attach the 
threaded bar to the uni-strut using the channel nuts, 38mm washers and M8 nuts (6).  Once this is 
done the Smoke Screen can be lifted into position and the set screws tightened as above (4).  Any 
final adjustments to height can be made at this stage as the nuts and the threaded bar will take the 
weight of the Smoke Screen.  

The final assembly, viewed ‘through the ceiling’ is in photo (7). 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

NOZZLE CHANGING 

 
To change the nozzle, first remove the front cover then 
remove, and replace, the nozzle using a 12mm ring spanner.  
Always use a new copper washer, which may need dressing 
slightly to seat an angled nozzle in the correct orientation.  
The Smoke Screen is delivered with a single-hole straight 
nozzle and the following are also available 

– 2-hole 

horizontal, 3-hole horizontal, 1-hole 30 deg angle down and 
2-hole 30 deg angle down. 
 

CONTROLLING THE SMOKE 

 

Inputs.

  There are 3 sets of input connections on the Smoke Screen (Alarm Set, Trigger and Hold Off) 

that should be connected to clean contacts.   For the Smoke Screen 

to produce ‘smoke’ all 3 sets of 

connections must be ‘open circuit’ (this can be changed to ‘closed’ – see “Invert Trigger Mode” in the 
Programming section).   If one 

set of connections is ‘closed circuit’ then the Smoke Screen is prevented 

from producing smoke.  Hence the production of smoke is controlled using one or a combination of the 
following: 
 

 

Alarm Set 

– a normally closed relay connected across the Alarm Panel ‘Set’ connections, which 

open when the Alarm Panel 

is ‘Set’ and closing when the panel is ‘Unset’. 

 

 

Trigger 

– a normally closed relay connected across the Alarm Panel ‘Trigger’ or ‘Intruder’ 

connections, which open when the Alarm Panel 

is in ‘alarm’. 

 

 

Hold-off

 

– usually a PIR or movement sensor connected to the ‘Hold-off PIR’ connections (N/C), 

which opens when the sensor sees movement. 

 

 

Additional Hold-off

 

– any form of N/C relay or micro switch can be connected to the ‘Hold-off’ 

connections.   Where fitted in addition to the Hold-

off PIR both sets of relays must be ‘open’ to 

produce ‘smoke’. 

 

Outputs.

  Clean contact o

utputs are provided for connection to the Alarm Panel for ‘Status Output’, 

‘Liquid Status’, ‘Battery Output’, ‘Tamper Status’ and ‘Verification Output’.  See the notes on the 
“Generic Connection Diagram” for the function of these outputs. 

 

WARNING 

This operation is usually carried out 
during installation.  If the Smoke Screen 
has been in service the nozzles will be 
extremely hot and will cause injury if 
touched.  Therefore, the Smoke Screen 
should be switched off and time should 
be allowed for the nozzles to cool.
