CEILING TILE MOUNTING BOX
PP2229/2008/Issue 2
© Apollo Fire Detectors Limited 2006-2008
APPLICATION
The Apollo ceiling tile mounting box has been
designed to make the installation of detectors quick
and easy prior to the addition of a false ceiling.
Detector and sounder bases can be fi tted, wired and,
if necessary, tested and commissioned before the
installation of a false ceiling. Detector heads can even
be fi tted to the bases. When the false ceiling is in
position, the mounting box can be slotted into place
without disturbing the wiring.
A separate back box is not required as it forms part of
the ceiling mounting box.
The mounting box can be used with tiles up to 25mm
thick. Moulded springs on the back of the product
automatically adjust to the tile's thickness while plastic
blades imbed into the back of the tile to secure it in
position.
The mounting box is for use with all Apollo detec-
tor and sounder bases with the exception of the
Intelligent Base Sounder for use with Isolating Base
(part no 45681-266) and the 20D Isolating Base (part
no 45681-321).
FEATURES
The ceiling tile mounting box includes three M20 and
two M25 knock-outs and a guide showing the size of
hole that should be cut in the ceiling tile. Should the
hole be cut too big, the mounting box includes slots
that allow it to be screwed to the tile.
The mounting box is available with one of two dif-
ferent sized retaining rings, one for use with Apollo
detector bases (part no 45681-309) and another for
sounder bases (part no 45681-310).
FIRE RESISTING & ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE CEILINGS
It is important that the integrity of fi re resisting and/or
acoustic performance ceilings is not compromised
by using the ceiling mounting box. Approval for use
should be obtained from relevant parties including
local enforcing authorities and property insurers.
