Series 800 Range of Analogue Addressable Detectors - Technical Data Sheet
DETECTOR INSTALLATION
!Fit detector to mounting base and rotate clockwise until the detector drops into place.
!Continue to rotate clockwise until the detector clicks and no further rotation is possible.
!If the detectors are required to be locked into position, refer to the mounting base installation instructions (see over leaf).
!Smoke detectors are supplied fitted with dust covers for general protection against airborne contaminates. These must be removed from
all detectors before the fire system is commissioned.
!NB. These dust covers do not provide adequate protection against quantities of dust generated by building work, sanding etc. Therefore,
detectors should not be installed until this type of work has been completed.
Short Circuit Isolators
Each of the detectors in his range contain an integral
short circuit isolator, which operates between the -VE
COM IN terminal and the -VE COM OUT terminal
(terminals 1 & 2; see base wiring diagram overleaf).
The isolator operates in conjuction with the DF6000
Control Panel when a low parallel resistance fault of
typically 200Wis presented between the +VE and -
VE of the loop wiring.
TESTING
All detectors must be tested following installation or routine service and maintenance. It is recommended that these tests are carried out by a
competent person. Authorised personnel must be informed that the fire system will be temporarily out of service before commencing testing. To
prevent unwanted alarms, ensure that the control panel is in the ‘ One Man Walk Test’ mode. When all tests are complete, re-enable the previously
disabled zones and notify authorised personnel that the system is operational.
Smoke Detectors; Photo/Thermal Detector
!Subject the detector to be tested to a controlled amount of an approved synthetic smoke aerosol via a smoke detector test pole. Suitable
products are available for example, from No Climb Products Ltd.
!Check that the red LED on the detector lights within 30 seconds and the appropriate alarm address indication is displayed on the control
panel. If an optional remote LED is fitted, check that this also lights.
!Ensure that the control panel activates into alarm.
!The control panel will automatically reset after a few seconds.
!This procedure will test the smoke sensing circuitry of the Photo/Thermal Detector.
Heat Detectors; Photo/Thermal Detector
!Using a heat gun or hair dryer capable of generating temperatures of up to 95°C, direct the heat source towards the heat sensing
elements, visible through the side of the outer cover, from a distance of 15 to 30cm. Care should be taken not to allow the plastic surface
temperature to exceed 110°C otherwise damage may occur.
!When the temperature reaches the ‘Alarm Temperature’ (see Specifications above), check that the red LED on the detector lights and the
appropriate alarm address indication is displayed on the control panel. If an optional remote LED is fitted, check that this also lights.
!Ensure that the control panel activates into alarm.
!The control panel will automatically reset after a few seconds.
!This procedure will test the heat sensing circuitry of the Photo/Thermal Detector.
Maintenance
Only minimal maintenance can be performed on this range of detectors as they do not contain any site serviceable parts. The frequency of
maintenance will depend on the environment to which the detector is exposed but should be at least annually. Dusty or damp environments will
demand more frequent maintenance.
!Remove the detector from its mounting base.
!Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust build up from around the smoke entry apertures of a smoke detector, or from around the heat
sensing element of a heat detector.
!For smoke detectors, visually inspect the insect mesh for blockages. If these can not be cleared by vacuuming, the detector must be
replaced.
!Re-fit detector to its mounting base and test as described above.
!Detectors that fail the testing procedure must be replaced.
