EDW2151A Low Profile
Photoelectronic Plug-in
Smoke Detector
INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Before Installing
Please thoroughly read the manual A05-1003,
Applica-
tions Guide for System Smoke Detectors
, which provides
detailed information on detector spacing, placement, zon-
ing, wiring, and special applications. Copies of this manual
are available from Edwards.
NOTICE:
This manual should be left with the owner/user
of this equipment.
IMPORTANT:
The detector must be tested and maintained
regularly following CAN/ULC S536 requirements. The de-
tector should be cleaned at least once a year.
General Description
The EDW2151A low-profile photoelectronic detector uses
a state-of-the-art optical sensing chamber. This detector is
designed to provide open area protection and to be used
with compatible ULC listed control panels only. The ca-
pability of plugging this detector into a variety of special
bases makes it more versatile than equivalent direct-wired
models.
Two LEDs on each detector provide local 360° visible
alarm indication. They flash every five seconds indicating
that power is applied and the detector is working properly.
The LEDs latch on in alarm. Remote LED annunciator ca-
pability is standard and may be implemented through an
optional accessory RA100ZA. The alarm can be reset only
by a momentary power interruption. This detector may be
tested by activating the internal reed switch with a magnet,
or by using the CSENS-RDRA infrared sensitivity reader.
Base Selection And Wiring Guide
Refer to the installation instructions for the Plug-in Detector
Bases for base selection and wiring instructions. Edwards
has a variety of detector bases available for this smoke
detector, including 2-wire applications with and without re-
lays and/or current limiting resistors, 4-wire and 120VAC

applications.
All bases are provided with screw terminals for power,
ground, remote annunciator connections and relay contact
connections, if applicable. The electrical ratings for each
detector-base combination are also included in the base
installation instructions.
Installation
Installation shall comply with the latest version of CAN/
ULC S524, Installation of Fire Alarm Systems.
NOTE:
All wiring must conform to applicable local codes,
ordinances, and regulations.
NOTE:
Verify that all detector bases are installed, that
the initiating-device circuits have been tested, and that
the wiring is correct. (Refer to detector base manual for
testing procedure.)
WARNING
Remove power from initiating-device circuits before install-
ing detectors.
1. Install detectors:
a. Place the detector into the detector base.
b. Turn the detector clockwise until the detector drops
into place.
c. Continue turning detector clockwise to lock it in place.
2. Tamper Resistance: The detector bases can be made
tamper resistant. When capability is enabled, detectors
cannot be removed from the base without the use of a
tool. See the detector base installation manual of the
detector base for details in using this capability.
3. After all detectors have been installed, apply power to
