The D2 model is a photoelectric detector approved for an extended air speed
range of
100 to 4000 feet per minute
(0.5 m/s to 20.3 m/s) and an operational
temperature range of −4°F to 158°F (−20°C to 70°C).
BEfORE INSTALLINg
Read the System Sensor Guide for
Proper Use of Smoke Detectors in Duct Appli-
cations
(A05-1004), which provides detailed information on detector spacing,
placement, zoning, wiring, and special applications. Copies of this manual
are available online at www.systemsensor.com. NFPA Standards 72 and 90A
should also be referenced for detailed information.
NOTICE:
This manual shall be left with the owner/user of this equipment.
IMPORTANT:
This detector must be tested and maintained regularly following
NFPA 72 requirements. The detector should be cleaned at least once a year.
WARNING
The National Fire Protection Association has established that DUCT DETEC-
TORS MUST NOT BE USED AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR OPEN AREA DETECTOR
PROTECTION as a means of providing life safety. Nor are they a substitute for
early warning in a building’s regular fire detection system.
System Sensor supports this position and strongly recommends that the user
read NFPA Standards 90A, 72, and 101. The D2 Air Duct Smoke Detectors are
listed per UL 268A.
This device will not operate without electrical power. Fire situations may
cause an interruption of power. The system safeguards should be discussed
with your local fire protection specialist.
This device will not sense smoke unless the ventilation system is operating
and the cover is installed.
For this detector to function properly, it MUST be installed according to the in-
structions in this manual. Furthermore, the detector MUST be operated within
ALL electrical and environmental specifications listed in this manual. Failure
to comply with these requirements may prevent the detector from activating
when smoke is present in the air duct.
[2] gENERAL DESCRIPTION
Smoke introduced into the air duct system will be distributed throughout the
entire building. Smoke detectors designed for use in air duct systems are used
to sense the presence of smoke in the duct.
Model D2 Duct Smoke Detector utilizes photoelectric technology for the de-
tection of smoke. This detection method, when combined with an efficient
housing design, samples air passing through the duct allowing detection of a
developing hazardous condition. When sufficient smoke is sensed, an alarm
signal is initiated and appropriate action can be taken to shut off fans,
blowers, change over air handling systems, etc. These actions can facilitate
the management of toxic smoke and fire gases throughout the areas served
by the duct system.
[2.1] DETECTOR fEATURE SET
- Utilizes 2151 plug-in head
- Sampling tubes installed from front or rear
- Compatible with existing accessories
[3] CONTENTS Of ThE DUCT SMOkE DETECTOR kIT
1. Sensor/power board assembly and covers
2. Three #10 sheet metal screws for mounting
3. Drilling template
4. One sampling tube end cap
5. One plastic exhaust tube
NOTE: A sampling tube must be ordered to complete the installation. It must
be the correct length for the width of the duct where it will be installed. See Ta-
ble 1 on page 3 to determine the inlet tube required for different duct widths.
