Copies of all component and system certi

cates, and system drawings are available from
Apollo on request.
Installation of Detectors
Detectors must be
fi
tted to certi
fi
ed IS bases. Use of any other bases will invalidate the
detector certi
fi
cation. Orbis detectors may be
fi
tted to Series 60 systems using an Orbis IS base
adaptor.
The bases must be installed in such a way that all wiring is protected to at least IP20. This
requirement will be met if bases are
fl
ush mounted. If bases are mounted on BESA boxes, or
other boxes having a diameter less than 85mm, they should be
fi
tted with XP95 backplates
(Apollo part number 45681-233).
Remote LED indicators may be
fi
tted to Orbis or to XP95 detectors. The LEDs need not be
certi
fi
ed but should be either 3mm or 5mm in diameter. The LED terminations must be
protected to at least IP20 and the circuits must be segregated from other circuits.
Special Conditions for Safe Use
To avoid problems with electrostatic charging of the enclosure, the equipment must not be
located in a dust-laden air
fl
ow or cleaned with a dry cloth or with solvents.
Installation of Manual Call Points
Manual call points must be installed to comply with the requirements of the ATEX directive or
another applicable code of regulations. All unused cable entry ports must be sealed using
suitable stopping plugs to give the required level of ingress protection.
Further Information
For further information see Apollo publications PP1095 for the XP95 ranges respectively. For
information on Orbis see publication PP2250
