DETECTOR ADDRESS
The address label carrier is fitted to the detector before mounting on the
base. When the detector is mounted to the base, and turned clockwise
until fully located on the base, the address label carrier is transferred to
the base. If the detector is removed the address label carrier remains on
the base.

A.B.N. 80 008 399 004, reserve the right to alter specifications without

INSTALLATION
The 801Ex series of detectors are not suitable for use where they
may be exposed to condensing moisture, mist or water spray.
When mounting on a damp surface or narrow beams where
condensation may enter the rear of the detector, the deckhead
mounting base DHM5B (part no. 517.050.603) or similar should be
used. The 801CHEx should not be positioned where high localised
levels of CO may normally occur, e.g. indoor car parks, warehouses.
The 801HEx Heat detector may be more appropriate. Installation of all
detectors should be carried out in accordance with AS 1670.1/
NZS 4512 and hazardous area installation requirements (e.g. AS/NZS
2381). Cable penetrations should be sealed when positive or negative
pressures in ceiling spaces may affect the performance or contaminate
the installed detectors.
MAINTENANCE AND SERVICE
The Tyco
MX
addressable system should be maintained in accordance
with AS 1851/NZS 4512. The Tyco X300 Smoke Tester, X461
Heat Tester and CO Test Gas (part no. 517.001.262) may be used for
testing
in-situ
. Rotating the detector anticlockwise past an indent to
the
park
position disconnects the detector from the circuit whilst still
retaining it in the base, allowing wiring testing etc. Note that insulation
testing must not be done when isolator bases are used.
Depressing the plunger at the side of the base allows the detector to
be rotated back into its operating position. Wormald Detector Clean &
Calibrate Wollongong are able to check the calibration of
MX
detectors.
Additionally, although the 801CHEx has an expected life in excess of
10 years, in order for the 801CHEx to provide the intended level of fire
detection, the detector should be checked for calibration 5 years after
installation or within 7 years of the date of manufacture.
Applications Warning
In many fires, hazardous levels of smoke
and toxic gas can build up before a heat detection device will initiate
an alarm. In cases where life safety is a factor, the use of smoke
and/or CO detection is highly recommended. Heat detectors are not
considered to provide life safety protection and are generally used
where property protection is desired, but smoke or CO detectors cannot
be used. Typical heat detector applications are satisfied by the use of
rate-of-rise and fixed temperature electronic detectors. The addition
of rate-of-rise operation provides faster heat detection for use where
temperature fluctuations are controlled and less than 6°C/min. Where
temperatures may fluctuate more quickly, use fixed temperature
detection only.
All wiring terminates at the 5BEx base as follows:
L
: – In and Out
L1
: + In, Out
Cables should be arranged at each side of the terminal screw. A maximum
of two 1.5mm
2
cables or one 2.5mm
2
cable can be fitted to one terminal.
Any additional cables should be fitted with suitable fork or eyelet crimp
terminal lugs. The installation should comply with AS 1670.1/NZS 4512
and AS/NZS 2381.
LOCKING KEY
A detector locking device is moulded
into the 5BEx base. This must be
detached and inserted into the locking
aperture if required, prior to the selected
detector being installed. The detector
may then be removed only by inserting
an unlocking tool (a Ø3 x 22mm long
rod) into the hole on the detector cover
to depress the locking device. The part
number for the locking device (pack of
100) is 517.050.005.
