WARNING 

TO PREVENT DETECTOR CONTAMINATION AND 
SUBSEQUENT WARRANTY invalidation, THE 
DETECTOR MUST REMAIN COVERED UNTIL THE AREA 
IS CLEAN AND DUST FREE. 

INSTALLING THE BASE 

1. To insure proper installation of the detector head to the 

base, all the wires should be properly dressed at 
installation: 
(A) Position all the wires flat against terminals. 
(B) Fasten the wires away from connector terminals. 

2. If you use a jumper wire to connect the two poles of 

terminals 2 and 5 when testing the detector loop 
continuity, be sure to remove the jumper wire prior to 
the installation of the detector head. 

3. The end-of-line device shown in fig. 1(a) and 1(b) 

should be compatible with the control unit. The 
end-of-line supervisory relay used should be rated for 
the DC power voltage used. 

4. Open area detectors are intended for mounting on a 

ceiling or a wall in accordance with Local 
requirements. 

5. The base of the detector can be mounted directly onto 

an electrical junction box such as an octagonal (75mm, 
90mm or 100mm), a round (75mm), or a square 
(100mm) box without using any type of mechanical 
adapter. 

INSTALLING THE HEAD 

1. Align the components as shown in Figure 2. 
2. Mate the detector head onto the base and twist 

clockwise to secure it. 

3. 

Do not install the detector head until the area is 
thoroughly cleaned of construction debris, dusts, etc. 
The maximum number of detectors that can be 
connected to the same detection zone is typically 
30.(see panel installation instructions)

ADJUSTING THE RELAY FOR NO/NC Operation 

The normal condition for the relay is 

normally open

 

(NO). 

1. To adjust the normal condition of the relay to 

normally closed

 (NC), insert a screwdriver into the 

rectangular hole located on the side between the front 
cover and base and rotate to remove the front cover. 

2. Refer to figure 3. There is a jumper head next to the 
relay on the PCB. Remove the jumper head and reinsert 
it in the NC position. 
3. Carefully replace the front cover. 
  Relay contact rating:   

1A@30VDC,  

  0.5A@125VAC

 
 
 
 
 
 

 

TESTING 

TESTING 

All remote signaling systems, releasing devices and extinguishing 

systems should be disconnected during the test period and reconnected 

at the conclusion of testing. 

2. After energizing the detector head for approximately 

one minute, check to see the indicator red LED 
flashing once every 4-6 seconds. If red LED fails to 
flash, it indicates the non-functioning of the detector or 
faulty wiring. Re-check the wiring or replace the 
detector if necessary. 

3. The detector to be tested should be subject to a flow of 

warm air at a temperature of between 65

°

C and 80

°

C. 

(This requirement can be met by some domestic hair 
dryers). 

Proceed as follows: 
(1). Switch on the warm airflow and check that
