WARNING: To prevent detector contamination dur-

ing construction, smoke detectors must be protected

from dust and contamination until the area is clean

and dust free. see NFPA 72 -5-3.7.1.3.

‡Note: Alarm current of detector is limited by control panel

initiating device circuit.

Mounting

• On a 4 inch square box with or without plaster ring or

supplied adapter. Minimum depth 1.5 inches.

• On a 3.5 or 4 inch octagonal box. Minimum depth 1.5

inches.

• On a single gang box. Min. depth 1.5 inches.

Installation

Place the detector into the detector base. Turn the detec-

tor clockwise until the detector locks into place.

To use the tamper-proof feature, break the smaller tab on

the scribed line in the tamper proof tab located on the

detector mounting bracket. Install the detector. To remove

the detector from the base when using the tamper-proof

feature, insert the blade of a small screwdriver into the

hole on the side of the base and push the plastic lever

away from the detector head. This will allow the detector

to be rotated counterclockwise for removal.

Note: The decorative ring must be removed in order to

remove the head when using the tamper-proof feature.

The tamper-proof feature may be defeated permanently

by breaking the plastic lever off the base.

Note: The number of two-wire smoke detectors which can

be accommodated per zone varies with different control

panels. Consult the control panel instruction manual to

determine the capacity.

Refer to NFPA 72, Chapter 5-3, “Smoke Sensing Fire

Detectors” for spacing, location of detectors and other

guidelines.

Testing

Detectors may be tested in the following ways:

• Place a test magnet against the cover opposite the test

module socket. (See illustration). The detector should

go into alarm within 5 seconds.

• Field metering of detector sensitivity may be performed

with the aid of a voltmeter and Test Kit MOD 400R. For

the complete procedure, refer to the Installation and

Maintenance Instructions furnished with each detector.

Maintenance

Cleaning programs should be adapted to the individual

environment. We recommend at least, an annual cleaning

of the unit. The detector screen and cover assembly can

be removed, revealing the sensing chamber. A vacuum

cleaner can be used to remove dust from the screen,

cover and sensing chamber. For the complete procedure,

refer to the Installation and Maintenance Instructions fur-

nished with each detector.
