EDS - RK90R - OPTICAL BEAM SMOKE DETECTOR - USER GUIDE

3 - INSTALLATION
3.1
- For the installation of the RK90R detector, we advise to use besides the normal tools (drill,
expansion plugs , etc) also the following elements:
• 1 - 7mm “C” Key
• 1 - alignment lamp (we recommend to use LAL02 lamp) or an electric torch with powerful and
narrow beam)
• 1 - tester (we recommend an analogical hand Tester or ours analogical STS01 meter (optional) to be
plugged on the special connector positioned on detector’s circuit).
3.2
- Unscrew the two fixing screws (fig. 2) and remove the cover
3.3
- Install the device at a distance from the ceiling within the 10% of the height of the room to
protect.
This distance can be varied by the system designer if particular environmental conditions exist.
Wall fixing must be done with care using the holes provided inside the container.
If the wall is a solid masonry one, expansion plugs are enough.
It’s extremely important that the fixing wall or surface is rigid and not subject to deformations.
3.4
- Get the cables inside through the holes obtained breaking the suitable zones marked on the sides
of the detector’s base.
It is important to use a suitable chock with a connecting pipe to avoid that the dust penetrates inside
the device, possibly causing failure to its correct functioning.
3.5
- Install the reflector FX.. on the opposite wall and at the same height of the detector.
It is not necessary that the FX is perfectly in front of and perpendicular to the detector (angle mistake
up to 5 degrees is possible in all directions).
We recommends, for the cables economy, to install the detectorr in the nearest position to the alarm
control unit.
