The reader of this Manual should ensure that it is appropriate in all details for the exact equipment to be installed and/or
operated. If in doubt, contact Honeywell Analytics for advice.
The following types of notices are used throughout this Operating Manual:
Caution

WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
1.
Installation and commissioning must only be carried out by a Honeywell Analytics approved person or by a
qualified person trained in accordance with this manual, and only in accordance with the recognized
regulations and standards of the appropriate authority in the country concerned.
2.
Do not make any unauthorised changes to the equipment as essential safety and certification requirements
may be invalidated.
3.
Do not operate the detectors in normal conditions with covers open or removed. Access to the interior of the
detector must only be carried out by trained personnel.
4.
Ensure the detector power is off and electrically isolated before opening the detector in a hazardous area.
Do not open the enclosure or touch live terminals when the system is energised.
5.
Do not touch or contaminate the sensors or lenses as this may shorten their life and may affect their
sensitivity to UV / IR radiation. Clean contaminated sensors and lenses carefully using lint-free or micro-fibre
cloth dampened only with optical-grade cleaning solution.
6.
These flame detectors do not require earthing (grounding), but must be installed correctly to avoid electrical
shocks and interference.
7.
The FSL100 Flame Detector is only assessed under ATEX for ignition hazards.
8.
Operators, site personnel and visitors should be made fully aware of the action to be taken in the event of an
alarm sounding.
Important
Read and understand the instruction manual before operating or servicing the equipment.
