Cleaning Procedure 

To clean the detector: 

a)

 

Disconnect the power to the unit and disable/inhibit any extinguishing equipment that is connected 

 

to the unit.  

b)

 

Use water and detergent to clean the detector windows and underside of the reflector.  Rinse with a 

 

soft cloth, cotton swab, or tissue. 

c)

 

Where dust, dirt or moisture accumulates on the window, first clean the window with a soft optical 

 

cloth and detergent, and then rinse with a clean soft cloth, cotton swab, or tissue.  If contamination 

 

continues to be an issue consider using the air shield.

Troubleshooting  

Use the table below to help troubleshoot any detector operational issues. 

Detector Status 

 

Possible Cause 

 

Corrective Action 

 

LEDs Off   

Fault Relay is open   

Current output at 0mA  

No power to the unit  

Check that the power is connected to the 

detector.  
Check power polarity.  
Check wiring in the detector.  

Yellow LED constantly on 

Fault Relay is open   

Current output at 0mA – 1mA  

Power problems  

 

Check the voltage between the “24VDC 

(+)” and “24VDC (-)” terminals to verify 

that it is in the allowed range (see section 

9.2) 

Yellow LED constantly on 

Fault Relay is open   
0

20mA at 2mA 

BIT Fault   

Clean detector window.  
Restart the detector (by turning the power 

off and then back on). 

Green LED constantly on 

Fault Relay is closed   
0

20mA at 3mA 

Dirty Window Warning    Clean detector window.  

Restart the detector (by turning the power 

off and then back on). 

Red LED constantly on 

Alarm Relay closed and 

current output is at 20mA 

Detector is in alarm latch 

mode 

Restart the detector (by turning the power 

off and then back on) or perform a manual 

BIT. 

Alarm Relay closed and 

current output is at 20mA 

Detector is exposed to a 

flame  

Check cause of alarm.  
If caused by “friendly fire”, re-position the 

detector so that it is not affected by it.
