WIRELESS PHOTOELECTRIC SMOKE DETECTOR MTS-166/9V
(EN)
Detector consists of autonomous battery operated audible smoke alarm and wireless alarm mod-
ule transmitting smoke alarm signal to alarm control panel or dedicated receivers. Detection of
smoke obscuration generates loud 85dB horn alarm along with wireless alarm transmissions to corresponding Elmes
CB32 wireless control panel or receiver where emergency state is further notified. Operated with Elmes receivers may
constitute a smoke alarm zone as part of any existing or newly designed security alarm system installation in house-
holds. Powered by carbon-zinc 9V battery the detector operates up to one year while up to three years operation may
be obtained when powered by alkaline or lithium battery. When operating with Elmes CB32 panel or dedicated Elmes
receivers CH8HR or CH20HR, the detector features monitoring of detector presence and battery voltage level. After 24
hours of no test signal from the detector, the receivers and the control panel indicate its absence (sabotage or failure
function). Also, low battery in the detector is indicated in the receivers and the control panel. Random timing of test and
alarm transmissions of the wireless module allows many MTS detectors to be installed in close vicinity. The detector
does not emit hazardous radiation and its operation is entirely based on photoelectric chamber obscuration by incom-
ing smoke. The detector is intended for use in single occupancy dwellings only and should not be installed in public
and industrial places. Read this leaflet fully before MTS installation and retain for future reference.
Locating and installing smoke detectors.
Proper location of detectors is a critical factor for early smoke detection and fire alarming. Prior to installation a judg-
ment of potential fire hazards and ways of smoke penetration is recommended. When installing, avoid areas where
there is no air circulation e.g. corners of rooms. For maximum protection detectors should be fitted in every room.
Smoke detectors
should be installed in ceiling center
in sleeping
and living room areas as well as in ways of expected smoke distribu-
tion in stair ways, hallways and their immediate vicinity. Place detector
at least 300mm from light fittings or decorative objects that may ob-
struct smoke entering the detector. When mounting detector on side
wall, allow minimum 300mm free distance from ciling. Installing detec-
tor in areas with sloping ceilings or walls keep 900mm distance from
the highest point measured.
Do not install detector
in room corners where there may not be suffi-
cient smoke circulation for its detection. Do not fit detectors in kitchen,
bathroom, workshop or garage where natural cooking fumes, steam,
dust or car exhaust fumes may trigger false alarms.
Suggested installation places of the MTS detectors in apartments and
houses are shown on side figures 1 and 2 with detector
marked
.
MTS smoke detector is battery powered device and requires no addi-
tional wiring. Having established a mounting location remove the base
part by means of squeezing two clip brackets of the detector and mark
two installation holes to be drilled in ceiling or wall. Insert supplied wall
plugs into drilled holes and screw in the base part. Now connect 9V
battery to battery clip observing polarity and insert the battery into bat-
tery compartment at the rear of the detector. Fit the detector part to the
base part firmly observing different widths of clip brackets.
NOTE! For the safety of the end user the smoke detector cannot
be fitted to the base part without 9V battery installed.
After installation or battery replacement always test correct operation of
the
smoke
detector
by
shortly
pressing
center
positioned
TEST/SILENCE button. Properly functioning unit emits short loud sig-
nals, indicates LED pulsing and sends wireless transmissions.
Learning detector to Elmes CB32 control panel or Elmes receivers.
In order to operate MTS detector with Elmes made wireless module it must be learned to Elmes receiver or control
panel. To do so, receiver or control panel must be set ready to learn transmitters according to procedure described in
its operation manual followed by MTS detector activation by pressing its central placed TEST/SILENCE button. Re-
ceiver/control panel confirms properly learned detecto
r by slow pulsing of its LED (receivers) or displaying “OK – cor-
rect” (CB32 control panel). Unsuccessful learning may be due to improper learning steps or radio frequency disturb-
ance by other transmitters and should be repeated. Deleting MTS detector in receiver/control panel is done according
to procedure steps described in their respective manuals. Maximum number of wireless detectors learned to one re-
ceiver/control panel is also specified in their manuals.
When learning MTS detector to CB32 control panel (version 3.00 and up) it is automatically recognized as smoke de-
tector and assigned to 24hour alarm line. In emergency, control panel displays “fire alarm” message along with “line
number” and, if the control panel operates with Elmes GSM monitoring module, appropriate SMS messages are sent
to registered phone number. Older versions of CB32 panel would recognize the smoke detector as wireless PIR detec-
