This detector must be installed in accordance with local or National regulations for fire detector installation. In the absence of such regulation,
please thoroughly read System Sensor’s “Guide to Intelligent Fire Systems”. This manual includes detailed information on detector spacing,
placement, zoning and special applications. Copies of this manual are available at no charge from System Sensor.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Model ECO2003 analogue addressable photo-electronic detectors are plug-in type smoke detectors that combine a photo-electronic sensing
chamber with analogue addressable communications. These detectors are designed for open area protection and must only be connected to
control panels that are ECO2000 compatible. This product must be fitted to a connection and mounting base type ECO2000B.
Each detector features a red LED, which can be used as a visible detector indication. This can be used to indicate various modes depending on the
control panel’s design. The LED can be latched on by code command from the control panel for an alarm indication. It can also be unlatched to
the normal condition by code command. In the normal condition the LED can be pulsed to indicate the presence of the detector. There is also a
special address-flashing mode, which allows the detector’s address to be read by observation. A Remote LED indicator capability is available as
an optional accessory wired to the standard base terminals.

WIRING GUIDE
Refer to the wiring instructions supplied with the ECO2000B plug-in detector bases for wiring details. All bases are provided with screw-in
terminals for power and an optional remote indicator. The remote indicator terminals can also be used as a zone marker to help identify
automatically the zones on the system by connection of a 10kohm resistor across the terminals. Not all control panels support this feature;
therefore refer to the control panel’s documentation for auto-configuring the system. Where the wiring is installed using plastic conduit, an
adaptor for ensuring correct termination of conduit into the detector base may be purchased separately under the part number
ECO2000BA.
NOTE: All wiring must conform to applicable local and national codes and regulations.
NOTE: Before applying power to the system, verify that all detector bases are installed and that the polarity of the wiring is correct at each
base.
WARNING
Disconnect loop power before installing detectors.
INSTALLATION
Detector Installation
1.
Install the wiring to the detector base in accordance with the wiring guide above.
2.
ECO2000 detectors feature a proprietary method for auto-configuration and therefore there is no need to set any addresses on the
detectors. Their communication address is automatically set by the control panel according to the physical position of the detector on
the loop.
3.
Insert the detector into the base and rotate it clockwise with gentle pressure until it drops into place.
4.
Continue to rotate the detector until it locks into the base.
5.
ECO2000 detectors feature short circuit isolators in the negative side of the loop and therefore in the event of a single short circuit on
the loop, all ECO2000 devices will continue to operate correctly. On the detector bases there is a shorting spring that closes when the
detector is removed in order to ensure that all the rest of the loop remains in tact if any detector is removed. It is imperative on
installation that all detectors are plugged into their bases, since the auto-addressing is dependent on the position of the detectors. If
any detectors are omitted, then the addressing for the other devices may be incorrect.
6.
After all the detectors have been installed, apply power to the system.
7.
Test the detector as described under TESTING, ensuring that the detectors respond to the desired detector addresses.
8.
Reset the detector by communication command from the panel.
Tamper-Resistance
Model ECO2003 includes a feature that, when activated, prevents removal of the detector without the use of a tool. Cut off the triangular
section of plastic as shown in the diagram in figure 2. The tamper removal tool is supplied as a removable part with the ECO2000B mounting
base.
CAUTION
As part of the packaging of this product a dust cover is provided and this helps to protect the unit during shipping and when
first installed. Dust covers are not intended to provide complete protection against contamination, therefore detectors should
be removed before construction, major re-decoration or other dust producing work is started. Dust covers must be removed
before the system can be made operational.
MAINTENANCE
Before cleaning, notify the proper authorities that the system is undergoing maintenance and will be temporarily out of service. Disable the
system to prevent unwanted alarms.
1.
Remove the detector to be cleaned from the system.
2.
Remove the detector cover, by twisting the detector cover in an anti-clockwise direction.
3.
Remove the detector chamber by pulling the upper chamber straight away from the lower chamber. Replacement top chambers are
available as an alternative to cleaning the chamber, although cleaning of the lower chamber may still be necessary.
4.
Use a vacuum cleaner and/or clean, compressed air to remove dust and debris from the sensing chamber.
5.
Replace the sensing chamber by locating over the lower chamber and twisting to ensure that the locating tabs
protrude through the small holes in the outside of the upper chamber.
6.
Replace the detector cover, by pushing the three locating tabs through the slots provided and then rotate
clockwise until the tabs click into place firmly. Replace the detector onto the mounting base. Since the system
is auto-addressing it is not necessary to replace the detector at the same position, however it is essential that
the detector replaces a device of the same type i.e. an ECO2003.
7.
When a detector is replaced, since the system is auto-configuring, there is no need to make any changes to
the detector’s address. Providing that the same number of detectors are plugged into the system as were there when the auto-configuration
was made, the addressing should be correctly re-configured when the panel is reset (either normal reset or engineering reset, depending on
control panel used).
TESTING
ECO2003 detectors must be tested after installation and following periodic maintenance. However, before testing, notify the proper authorities that
the fire detection system is undergoing maintenance and that the system will be temporarily be out of service. Disable the zone or system
undergoing maintenance to prevent unwanted alarms.
In addition, check to ensure that the LED blinks (this feature may be configurable under software command from the control panel). If it is not and
the panel is set to blink the LED, power has been lost to the detector. In this case first check the wiring or if the detector is defective return it for
repair.
Test the detectors as follows:
1.
Either use a canned smoke aerosol or a detector tester for generating artificial smoke for testing the detector. Inject the smoke into the
detector’s chamber using the test smoke as recommended by the manufacturer and ensure that it is present until an alarm occurs on the
detector. In areas of high air flow it may be necessary to shield the detector whilst maintaining the smoke in the detector in order to achieve
the alarm condition.
2.
The red alarm LED should latch on within 30 seconds indicating an alarm and activating the panel into a condition to indicate the detector
under test.
3.
ECO2000 detectors contain alarm verification algorithms in order to reduce the incidence of false alarms due to short-lived conditions that
would cause an alarm on the detector and therefore it is normal for the detector to take up to 30 seconds to produce an alarm condition. In
test mode the control panel may have a processing over-ride possibility and therefore this time could be considerably shortened.
After completion of all tests notify the proper authorities that the system is operational.
Detectors that fail these tests should be cleaned as described under MAINTENANCE and retested. If the detectors still fail these tests they
should be returned for repair.
NOTE: ECO2003 smoke detectors incorporate advanced detection processing and part of this in-built processing is to automatically calibrate
against changes of sensitivity as the detector becomes dirty. When the detector finally reaches the end of this calibration, it will generate a fault
indication on the control panel. When this condition has been reached, the detector’s sensitivity will change over time and therefore there is no
guarantee that the detector is still within approved sensitivity limits. In this case it is essential that the detector is either cleaned or replaced.
NOTE: As with all addressable fire systems it is essential after commissioning or after any changes have been made to the system that each
device responds at the address intended and that its indications and activations are according to the system design. Since auto-configuration may
change the addressing of the devices this is even more important for the ECO2000 system.

WARNING
LIMITATIONS OF SMOKE DETECTORS
This smoke detector is designed to activate and initiate emergency action, but will do so only when used in conjunction with other equipment.
Smoke detectors will not work without power.
Smoke detectors will not sense fires which start where smoke does not reach the detectors. Smoke from fires in chimneys, in walls, on
roofs, or on the other side of closed doors may not reach the smoke detector and trigger the unit.
A detector may not detect a fire developing on another level of a building. For this reason, detectors should be located on every level of a
building.
Smoke detectors also have sensing limitations. This detector must be installed with regard to the fire risk that the detector is intended to
protect against. In general, smoke detectors cannot be expected to provide warnings for fires resulting from inadequate fire protection practices,
violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable liquids like cleaning solvents, other safety hazards, or arson. Smoke detectors
used in high air velocity conditions may fail to alarm due to dilution of smoke densities created by such frequent and rapid air exchanges.
Additionally, high air velocity environments may create increased dust contamination, demanding more frequent maintenance.
Smoke detectors cannot last forever. Smoke detectors contain electronic parts. Even though detectors are made to last over 10 years, any of
these parts could fail at any time. Therefore, test your smoke detection system at least half yearly. Clean and take care of your smoke detectors
regularly. Taking care of the fire detection system you have installed will significantly reduce your product liability risks. to be safe, it is
recommended that smoke detectors be replaced after 10 years.
