B350LP PLUG IN DETECTOR BASE INSTRUCTIONS installing detectors please thoroughly read the system wiring and installation manuals and manual I56 407 for Proper Use of System Smoke Detectors which provides detailed information on detector spacing placement and special applications Copies of these manuals are available from Fire DESCRIPTION B350LP Plug in Detector Base is used with Fire models CP350 ionization SD350 and SD350T photoelectronic de and H350 and H350R heat detectors B350LP base is intended for use in a 2 wire addressable system with screw terminals provided for power and remote annunciator connections Communication takes place over the power and lines TERMINALS Remote Annunciator Annunciator PROOF 1 Terminal Layout inches 155 mm inch 102 mm square box with or without plaster ring Depth 1.5 inches 38 mm inch Octagon Box Min Depth 1.5 inches 38 mm inch Octagon Box Min Depth 1.5 inches 38 mm Gang Box Min Depth 1.5 inches 38 mm Alarms Inc One Fire Place Northford CT 06472 203 484 7161 ON NOT NOT detector base mounts directly to 3 1 2 inch and 4 octagon boxes 4 inch square boxes with or with plaster rings and single gang boxes To mount re the decorative ring by turning it in either direction unhook the snaps then separate the ring from the Install the base on the box using the screws sup with the junction box and the appropriate mount slots in the base Place the decorative ring on the and rotate it in either direction until it snaps into see Figure 2 WIRING GUIDELINES wiring must be installed in compliance with all appli local codes and any special requirements of the having jurisdiction using the proper wire The conductors used to connect smoke detectors control panels and accessory devices should be to reduce the likelihood of wiring errors connections can prevent a system from re properly in the event of a fire signal wiring the wiring between interconnected it is recommended that the wire be no than AWG 18 However the screws and plate in the base can accommodate wire up to AWG 12 The use of twisted pair wiring or cable for the power and loop is recom to minimize the effects of electrical interfer shielded cable is used the shield connection to and the detector must be continuous by using wire crimping or soldering as appropriate for a reli connection 2 Mounting Detector to Box electrical connections by stripping about 3 8 10 mm of insulation from the end of the wire use strip gauge in base sliding the bare end of the wire under the clamping plate and tightening the clamping plate screw Do loop the wire under the clamping plate zone wiring of the detector base should be checked before the detector heads are installed in them The wiring be checked for continuity and polarity in the base and dielectric tests should be performed base includes a label for recording the zone address and type of detector being installed This information is impor to set the address of the detector head that will later be plugged into the base and to verify the type required for that ANNUNCIATOR Do not loop wire under terminal 1 or 2 wire run to provide supervision of connections A OPTIONAL WIRING 3 Typical Wiring Diagram for 2 wire loop Do NOT use the tamper resistant capability if the XR2 Removal Tool will be used Tamper Resistant Tab in the Detector Mounting Bracket can make the detector tamper resistant by making it nec to use a small screwdriver or similar tool to detach the detector from the base make the detector tamper resistant use needle nose pliers to break the smaller tab at the scribed line on the tamper tab Figures 1 and 4A show the location of this tab on the detector mounting bracket remove the detector from the base after it has been made tamper resistant remove the decorative ring by rotating it either direction and pulling it away from the base Then insert a small screwdriver into the notch as indicated in Fig 4B and press the plastic lever toward the mounting surface before rotating the detector counterclockwise for re LEVER TAB AT LINE BY TOWARD OF BASE SMALL BLADED TO PLASTIC LEVER DIRECTION OF 4A Enabling the Capability 4B Removing the Detector from the Base ANNUNCIATOR MODEL RA400Z the remote annunciator between terminals 1 and 3 using the spade lug terminal included The spade lug termi is connected to the base terminal as shown in Figure 5 is not acceptable for three stripped wires to be under the same wiring terminal unless they are separated by a washer a lug like the spade lug supplied with the model RA400Z See Figure 5 for installation WIRE WITH LUG 5 Connection to Remote Annunciator Terminal refer to insert for the Limitations of Fire Alarm Systems Fire
