The Series FC600 detectors can be used with the Detector Bases FC600/BR, FC600/BRD and
FC600/BREL.
2.4.1.1 Arrangement of wires in Detector Base FC600/BR, FC600/BRD, FC600/BREL
Strip the insulation just as short as the terminal requires for connection. The alarm resistor R = 1kOhm
between terminals „R+“ and „+“ is already connected. Keep in mind to connect the end-of-line element
(resistor or capacitor) at the terminals „R+“ and „OUT“ of the last element.
The removal of a detector from the Detector Base FC600/BR will open the conventional zone and a
fault (broken wire) will be displayed at the panel.
The use of the Detector Base FC600/BRD, which has a built-in diode, prevents the conventional zone
from being opened when a detector is removed from its base. As a consequence, a capacitor has to be
defined as end-of-line element – for further instructions please consult the corresponding manual of the
fire detection control panel.
