DHX-502 INTELLIGENT AIR DUCT SMOKE DETECTOR HOUSING

INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS

Before installing detectors, please thoroughly read the NEMA 

Guide for Proper Use of Smoke Detectors in Duct

Applications, which provides detailed information on detector spacing, placement, zoning, wiring, and special
applications. Copies of this manual are available from NEMA (National Electrical Manufacturers Association, 2101
L Street NW, Washington, DC 20037). NFPA Standards 72 and 90A should also be referenced for detailed
information.

NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user of this equipment.

IMPORTANT: This detector must be tested and maintained regularly following NFPA 72 requirements. The detector
should be cleanded at least once a year.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

An HVAC system supplies conditioned air to virtually every area of a building. Smoke introduced into this air duct
system will be distributed to the entire building. Smoke detectors designed for use in air duct systems are used to
sense the presence of smoke in the duct.

The DHX-502 Air Duct Detector Housings are used with Notifier’s intelligent model CPX-551 ionization detector head
and Model SDX-551 photoelectronic detector head. These two principal smoke detection methods are combined with
an efficient housing design that samples air passing through a duct and allows early detection of a developing
hazardous condition. When sufficient smoke is sensed, an alarm signal is initiated at the fire control panel monitoring
the detector, and appropriate action can be taken to shut off fans and blowers, change over air handling systems, etc.
This can prevent the distribution or isolation of toxic smoke and fire gases throughout the areas served by the duct
system.

Two LEDs on each detector latch ON to provide a local alarm indication. There is also a remote alarm output for use
with auxiliary devices. The DHX-502 has remote test capability with the RTS451/RTS451KEY Remote Test Station.
