EDA-R6030 Radio Combined Optical Smoke Detector and Sounder
With LED Beacon Installation Instructions
The EDA-R6030 Radio Combined Optical Smoke Detector and Sounder with LED Beacon is used as part of the Zerio
Plus Radio Fire Alarm System. It cannot be used with other ranges of Electro-Detectors products.
It should be noted that there is no EN54 standard for battery operated sounders and beacons for fire alarm systems and
therefore there is no need to achieve compliance, however the unit has been designed and measured to conform with the
relevant parts of EN54 part 3 and part 23. This unit has been tested by an EN54 accredited test house to EN54-3.
The unit is rated to IP21C and should only be used for indoor use.
To fix the base to the ceiling
The smoke detector should be fitted in an appropriate position as detailed in BS5839 Part 1. The base plate should be
separated from the unit by rotating the detector anti-clockwise and pulling apart. The base should be screwed to a flat
surface using 2 x No 6 screws of appropriate length for the material that the unit is being mounted on. It is
recommended that the base should be used as a template for the screw holes. If the surface is not flat, the unit may
buckle and cause tamper conditions, when screwed tightly to the surface. It is recommended that the units not be
secured too tightly or a mounting plate be fixed to the wall first. The units should not be fitted covering holes in ceilings
where water could possibly drip through. Any hole should be made good prior to installing the detector. The unit should
be fitted away from any metal objects or electrical items to avoid radio interference and a radio survey for the position
should have been carried out prior to installation.
Adding the device to the system
Before the unit will operate on a system, it must be programmed via the control panel. To program the unit the panel
must be set in the appropriate mode to add a device to the system. If a device is being added or replaced on the system
then the appropriate menu option should be selected on the control panel. Please refer to the panel manual for further
information. Before adding/replacing the device on the system you will need to know what unit number/address the unit
is to be programmed to. The zone number, sensitivity, volume, area and text location information should also be to
hand but this can be added/changed later. Some of this information is left at default.
