FIGURE 3B. REMOVING DETECTOR HEAD FROM BASE:
System Sensor warrants its enclosed smoke detector base to be free from defects in ma-
terials and workmanship under normal use and service for a period of three years from
date of manufacture. System Sensor makes no other express warranty for this smoke
detector base. No agent, representative, dealer, or employee of the Company has the au-
thority to increase or alter the obligations or limitations of this Warranty. The Company’s
obligation of this Warranty shall be limited to the repair or replacement of any part of
the smoke detector base which is found to be defective in materials or workmanship
under normal use and service during the three year period commencing with the date of
manufacture. After phoning System Sensor’s toll free number 800-SENSOR2 (736-7672)
for a Return Authorization number, send defective units postage prepaid to: Honeywell,
THREE-YEAR LIMITED WARRANTY
12220 Rojas Drive, Suite 700, El Paso TX 79936 USA. Please include a note describing the
malfunction and suspected cause of failure. The Company shall not be obligated to repair
or replace units which are found to be defective because of damage, unreasonable use,
modifications, or alterations occurring after the date of manufacture. In no case shall the
Company be liable for any consequential or incidental damages for breach of this or any
other Warranty, expressed or implied whatsoever, even if the loss or damage is caused by
the Company’s negligence or fault. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of
incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply
to you. This Warranty gives you specific legal rights, and you may also have other rights
which vary from state to state.
tion, using the proper wire size. The conductors used to connect smoke detectors to
control panels and accessory devices should be color-coded to reduce the likelihood
of wiring errors. Improper connections can prevent a system from responding prop-
erly in the event of a fire.
For signal wiring (the wiring between interconnected detectors), it is recommended
that the wire be no smaller than AWG 18. However, the screws and clamping plate in
the base can accommodate wire sizes up to AWG 12. The use of twisted pair wiring
for the power (+ and -) loop is recommended to minimize the effects of electrical
interference.
NOTE: To ensure that electrical connections are supervised, do NOT loop wires un-
der terminals 2, 3, and 5 - break the wire at each terminal.
To make electrical connections, strip approximately 3/8
˝(1 cm) insulation from the
end of each wire. Slide the wires under the clamp plate and tighten the terminal screw.
Check the zone wiring before installing the smoke detector head. The built-in short-
ing spring makes it convenient to do this. After the detector base is wired and at-
tached to the electrical box, position the shorting spring against terminal 3. Use the
slot in the retaining clip to hold the spring against the terminal, as shown in Figure 1.
This shorts the negative-in and negative-out leads so that loop wiring can be tested
for continuity.
The shorting spring in the base will disengage automatically when the detector head
is removed from the base. DO NOT remove the shorting spring since it reengages as
the detector head is turned into the base, completing the circuit.
TAMPER-RESISTANCE FEATURE
NOTE: DO NOT use the tamper-resistance feature if the System Sensor XR2 Re-
moval Tool will be used to remove detectors from the base.
This detector base can be made tamper resistant so that the detector cannot be de-
tached without the use of a tool. To make the base tamper-resistant, break off the
smaller tab at the scribed line on the tamper-resistance tab, on the detector mounting
bracket (see Figure 3A), before installing the detector.
To remove the detector from the base after it has been made tamper resistant, remove
the decorative ring by rotating it in either direction and pulling it away from the base.
Then, insert a small screwdriver into the notch (see Figure 3B), and press the plastic
lever toward the mounting surface before rotating the detector counterclockwise for
removal.
