Heat test
Use a hair dryer of 1000-1500 W or an heat tool from an approved manufacturer. Direct the heat towards the sensor from its side.
Hold the heat source at about 15 cm away from the sensor in order to prevent damage to its cover during testing.
The detector should trigger an alarm message to the control panel, and, successively, the detector’s red LED should be activated
by the control panel itself.
CAUTION
Dust covers help to protect the devices
during shipping and when first installed.
They are not intended to provide complete
protection against contamination, therefore,
detectors should be removed before con-
struction, major re-decoration or other dust
producing work is started. DUST COVERS
MUST BE REMOVED BEFORE THE SYSTEM
CAN BE MADE OPERATIONAL.
WARNING
Disconnect loop power before installing the
detector.
5.
When the detector is firmly engaged verify the alignment
between the detector and the raised reference marks on the
base (figure 7).
6.
After all detectors and other loop devices have been
installed, apply power to the loop in accordance with the
control panel’s installation instructions.
7.
Test the detectors as described in the section headed
“TESTING”.
1.
Position the detector centrally
on its mounting base (
ensure it is
level
).
2.
Rotate clockwise applying
gentle pressure. The detector will
drop into its keyed location.
3.
Press more firmly
to win the
force of the contacts.
4.
Continue to rotate clockwise a
few degrees until the detector has
fully engaged in the mounting
base.
ANTI-TAMPER MECHANICAL BLOCK FEATURE
The detector may be locked onto its base by remov-
ing the small plastic element on the base’s detector
blocking hook by using a suitable tool (e.g. a small
screwdriver) inserted through the access hole on
the side of the mounting base (figure 6).
To remove the detector from the base, if mechani-
cally blocked, insert a suitable tool (e.g. a small
screwdriver) through the access hole on the side of
the mounting base (figure 6).

TAMPER DETECTION
A fault condition is triggered on the protocol compatible control panel if a detector, on the loop, is removed from its mounting base.
TESTING
Detectors should be tested after installation and during periodic maintenance visits (it is recommended each device should be tested
at least once per year). When the system has been reset, allow at least one minute for power stabilisation.
Detectors can be tested as follows:
If the detector does not respond to the tests correctly it may be necessary to clean it: in this case follow the instructions indicated in
the “MAINTENANCE” paragraph.
If testing fails again after maintenance then replace the detector with a new one and return the faulty one for servicing.

MAINTENANCE
Before starting any maintenance work, isolate and disable the system in order to avoid accidental and unwanted alarm or fault condi-
tions. Remove the detector from its mounting base to allow inspection in good light at ground level. Inspect the thermistor area; use a
small, soft bristle brush to dislodge any evident contaminants such as insects, spider webs, hairs, etc. Use a small vacuum tube or
clean, dry and compressed air to suck up or blow away any remaining small particles from the thermistor area.
Wipe the exterior housing of the detector with a clean, damp, lint free cloth to remove any surface film that can later attract airborne
contaminants. After all detectors have been inspected, repositioned on their mounting bases and power has been re-applied, check
correct operation as described under the “TESTING” paragraph.
WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS
Our devices use high quality electronic components and plastic materials that are highly resistant to
environmental deterioration. However, after 10 years of continuous operation, it is advisable to replace the
devices in order to minimize the risk of reduced performance caused by external factors. Ensure that this
device is only used with compatible control panels. Detection systems must be checked, serviced and
maintained on a regular basis to confirm correct operation.
Smoke sensors may respond differently to various kinds of smoke particles, thus application advice
should be sought for special risks. Sensors cannot respond correctly if barriers exist between them and
the fire location and may be affected by special environmental conditions.
Refer to and follow national codes of practice and other internationally recognized fire engineering stan-
dards.
Appropriate risk assessment should be carried out initially to determine correct design criteria and up-
dated periodically.
WARRANTY
All devices are supplied with the benefit of a limited 3 year warranty relating to faulty materials or manu-
facturing defects, effective from the production date indicated on each product.
This warranty is invalidated by mechanical or electrical damage caused in the field by incorrect handling
or usage.
Product must be returned via your authorized supplier for repair or replacement together with full informa-
tion on any problem identified.
Full details on our warranty and product’s returns policy can be obtained upon request.
