VDOT-U5015 Explosion Proof Smoke Detector 

The field wiring terminal connections are certified for a single wire in 
size from 0.2 to 2.5 mm2 (or two conductors with same cross section 
0.2 to 0.75 mm2). The screws must be tightened down with a torque 

0.4 to 0.5 N•m. The metal housing must be electrically 

connected to 

earth ground.  
 
A minimum of 12 Vdc must be present at the U5015 to ensure 
proper operation. The maximum cable length from power source to 
U5015 is 2000 feet. When the U5015 Smoke Detector is mounted 
remotely using an STB termination box, maximum cable length from 
U5015 to STB is 500 feet. 
 

WARNING

 

 

For  field  connections,  use  wires/cables  that  are  rated  at  20°C 
greater than the maximum ambient temperature.  

 

NOTE 

 

In applications where the wiring is installed in conduit, dedicated 
conduit is recommended. Avoid low frequency, high voltage, and 
non

-

signaling conductors to prevent nuisance EMI problems.  

 

JUMPER 

 

Depending on the wiring option that is used, jumpers may be 
required. See Table 3 for the Jumper Usage Guide and Figures 12 to 
15 for wiring examples. 

 

WIRING PROCEDURE 

 

Ensure that all cables are terminated properly. Conductor insulation 
should be stripped off with a bare conductor length of 0.2 inch (5 mm) 
minimum and 0.7 inch (18 mm) maximum. Ensure that cable shield is 
properly  terminated  and  that  bare  shield  wire  is  not  allowed  to 
accidentally contact the metal housing or any other wire.  
 
Use the following instructions when wiring the U5015 detector:  

1. Slightly loosen the three setscrews located on the retaining ring 
(see Figure 7). 

     

                 

 

2. Unscrew the retaining ring to gain access to the wiring terminals 
(see Figure 8), and complete the installation of the system conduit. 
Feed the external wiring through the remaining junction box entry 
or M25 to 3/4 inch adapter. When installing the junction box, use 
care not to damagethe wires and refrain from twisting them.  

 

 

 

3. Connect the external wiring to the appropriate terminals. 

 

Figure 9 shows the wiring terminals.  

 

Figure 10 shows the ground lug locations.  

 

Figures 12 and 13 show wiring for single detector 
configurations.  

 

Figures 14 and 15 show wiring for multiple detector 
configurations.  
 

4. Re-install the assembly. Use the alignment guide (see Figure 11) 
to align the retaining ring with the junction box.  

5. Screw the retaining ring on to the junction box and re-tighten the 
three setscrews.
