Section 4 - LOCATION

Note: Use correct sensitivity position. See Section 12 on page 5 for 

more details on positioning.

i)

Determine suitable mounting location according to supervision 

angle, and effective detection range.

ii)

Avoid mounting at such angles that two detectors supervise each 

others protected area unnecessarily.

iii)

Avoid mounting around openings for ventilation because of dust 

and dirt contamination.

iv)

Avoid mounting in such as way as the sensor covers external 

doors or windows, as ultraviolet light may enter the range of the 

detector and cause false alarms.

v)

Avoid mounting in areas such as workshops in case of false alarm

from welding etc.  If this is unavoidable the source should be 

shielded with plain glass.

vi)

In the case of supervising certain obstructions ensure there are no 

dead areas.

Section 5 - INSTALLATION

In normal use, the 

EV-UV

sensor will be installed at ceiling level, 

however it is permissable to mount the sensor at an angle (See 

Section 12 for details).  Pass the field wiring through the cable hole 

in the centre and from the rear of the base.  Offer up and affix the 

base to the ceiling or conduit fitting with screws via the base 

mounting holes.  Consider visibility of the sensor's integral LED alarm 

indicator when mounting the base.  Connect the field wiring to the 

base terminals, as detailed on page 8 making sure the wiring does 

not obstruct fitting of the detector head.  Fit the sensor head by 

inserting it into the base and turning clockwise until the lugs align 

with the base.

Note: The address must be set before the sensor is fitted into place.

Keep the plastic dust cover supplied over the sensor until the system 

is fitted to prevent the quartz window from becoming scratched.

NOTE: THE PLASTIC DUST COVER MUST BE RE- MOVED FROM THE 

SENSOR IN ORDER FOR THE SENSOR TO FUNCTION CORRECTLY.
