Model TC844A1007 Filtrex
™
Intelligent Photoelectronic Sensor
Installation Instructions
Before installing sensors, please thoroughly read the
Guide for Proper Use of System Smoke Detectors
, which provides detailed infor-
mation on sensor spacing, placement, zoning, and special applications. Copies of this guide are available from Honeywell.
NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user of this equipment.
IMPORTANT: This sensor must be tested and maintained regularly following NFPA 72 requirements. It should be cleaned at least once
a year.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Filtrex® uses a small air intake fan and a high density replaceable filter. Air and smoke are drawn into a photoelectric sensing cham-
ber while airborne particulate and water mist are removed. The addressable-analog detector transmits an analog representation of
smoke density over a communication line to a control panel. Rotary-decade switches are provided for setting the sensor’s address.
Two LEDs on the sensor are controlled by the panel to indicate sensor status.
The Filtrex smoke detector is intended for use in normal environmental conditions, where dust and other airborne particulate are pres-
ent at elevated levels. These elevated levels tend to cause false alarms and high maintenance in standard detectors. Filtrex provides
a protective enclosure for a photoelectric smoke detector chamber and allows smoke detection in areas where heat detection was the
only practical alternative for fire sensing.
Filtrex requires compatible addressable communications to function properly. Connect this detector to listed-compatible control panels
only.
