INSTALLATION
This equipment must be installed in accordance with all local and national
codes and regulations.
PIPE INSTALLATION
The pipe layout is designed using the PipeIQ software package. Refer to the
Comprehensive Instruction Manual to design the pipe network. All pipe must
be installed in accordance with local and national codes and regulations. The
pipe network should be complete before proceeding with the physical and
electrical system installation.
PHYSICAL UNIT INSTALLATION
WARNING
Make sure that there are no pipes or electrical wires within the wall before
drilling any mounting holes
SECURING THE MOUNTING BRACKET
The typical mounting location for the FAAST XS unit is on the wall. The unit
is mounted to the wall using the enclosed mounting plate. Figure 1 shows the
wall mounting plate. For easier access to the FAAST XS unit, it is preferred to
position the mounting plate in an easily accessible location.
1. Place the mounting bracket on the wall in the desired location and
use it as a template to locate the necessary mounting holes.
2. Mark the hole locations and remove the bracket. It is recommended
to secure the bracket using both mounting holes.
3. Using a drill and the proper size bit for your mounting hardware, drill
the necessary holes.
4. Use appropriate fasteners to accommodate the mounting surface and
FAAST XS device weight.
5. Secure the bracket to the wall.

MOUNTING THE DETECTOR TO THE BRACKET
Once the mounting bracket has been attached, the unit is ready to secure onto
the bracket. Perform the following procedure to mount the unit.
1. Before installing the unit onto the bracket, remove the appropriate con-
duit caps from the top or left side of the unit to match the orientation of
the wiring. Locate the conduit openings around the wiring access door.
2. Align the unit with the three mounting clips and the mounting stud
on the left side.
3. Push the unit down onto the mounting clips and secure it with the
supplied washer and nut on the mounting stud protruding through
the mounting slot shown in Figure 1.

CONNECTING THE AIR SAMPLING PIPE
ATTENTION
Detailed pipe network information and best practices can be found in the Pipe
Installation Guide, available for download at systemsensor.com/faast
The input and output ports are designed to accept nominal one inch pipe
(25mm). The input and output ports are tapered to provide fast, easy, push-fit
connection of the sampling pipe to the unit. Perform the following procedure
to connect the air sampling pipe to the unit.
1. Square off and de-burr the end of the sampling pipe. Ensure that the
pipe is free from any particles that might interfere with the pipe con-
nection.
2. Remove the input plug from the input port being used (either the top
or bottom of the unit).
3. Inset the air sampling pipe into the port, ensuring a snug fit. DO NOT
glue this pipe.
EXHAUST PIPE
The device must always be exhausted in to the space that it is monitoring.
There are some circumstances where it may be necessary to connect a pipe
to the exhaust port to divert the exhaust away from the location of the unit.
Adding as little as 2ft of exhaust pipe also acts as a muffler for the fan – ensur-
ing quieter operation. Perform the following procedure to connect the exhaust
pipe to the unit.
