The 4098-9685, 4098-9686, 4098-9688, 4098-9755 or 4098-9756 Duct
Detector/Sensor should be installed in a location of relatively nonturbulent air
flow and within the intended operating velocity range of 300-4000 feet-per-
minute (91 to 1220 M/min.).
Simplex recommends measurements of air flow and examination of engineering
specifications that define expected duct air velocities under all conditions. This
is done to determine if a location is suitable for duct detector/sensor operation.
An Alnor Instrument Co. (Chicago) Model 6000P Velometer or equivalent (not
supplied) may be used to check the duct air velocity.
1. It is recommended to locate detectors/sensors a minimum of six duct widths
downstream from bends or inlets. Such locations ensure that air flow is non-
turbulent and that smoke is properly mixed with air in the duct for maximum
detector/sensor efficiency. See Figures 9 and 10.
Note:
Installation of a duct detector/sensor to a round duct is the same as
shown in Figures 9 and 10 as long as the round duct is 18 inches or
larger (45.7 cm) in diameter.

2. Locate duct housings so that dampers do not restrict air flow at the
detector/sensor location. See Figure 11.
3. Locate air duct detectors/sensors on the return or supply duct of the
equipment’s air handling system. However, detectors/sensors should NOT
be installed in the return air damper branch. See Figure 11.
