[5.6] Install The Filters

To install the sampling tube filters, simply push the filter
adapter into the exhaust tube, and push the filter onto the
adapter tube on the left, as shown in Figure 9. Install the
other filter over the end of the inlet sampling tube.

CAUTION

Filters require periodic cleaning or replacement, depending
on the amount of dust and dirt accumulated. Visually in-
spect the filters at least quarterly; inspect them more often
if the dust accumulation warrants it. See Section [6] for
more information. Replacement filters can be ordered from
System Sensor, 3825 Ohio Ave., St. Charles, IL 60174. (Ex-
haust tube/intake tube filter P/N F36-05-00).

[5.7] Perform Detector Check

1. Perform the STANDBY AND TROUBLE TEST per Section

[6.2.1].

2. Perform the MAGNET TEST per Section [6.2.2.1]. The

RTS451 test of Section [6.2.2.2] may substitute for this
requirement.

3. Perform the AIR FLOW TEST per Section [6.1.1].
4. Perform the SMOKE RESPONSE TEST per Section

[6.1.2].

5. Perform the SENSITIVITY TEST per Section [6.2.3].
6. Record all test results in the Detector Test Log at the end

of this manual.

[5.8] Install The Cover

Install the cover using the four screws that are fixed in the
housing cover. Be certain filters are installed as specified in
Section [5.6]. Make sure that the cover fits into the base
groove and that all gaskets are in their proper positions.
Tighten the four screws to 10 in-lbs.

[6] Duct Detector Maintenance And Test Procedures

Test and maintain duct detectors as recommended in NFPA
72. The tests contained in this manual were devised to as-
sist maintenance personnel in verification of proper detec-
tor operation.

Before conducting these tests, notify the proper authorities
that the smoke detection system will be temporarily out of
service. Disable the zone or system under test to prevent
unwanted alarms.

After conducting these tests, record the appropriate infor-
mation in the Detector Test Log at the end of this manual.
