System Sensor SENS-RDR

INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS Reader Specifications Temperature Range Temperature Range without batteries Humidity Range Using SENS RDR sensitivity reader is a tool to measure the of i3 smoke detectors as well as 100 series con smoke detectors only models 2151 and 2151T after April 2006 It CANNOT be used on the 300 400 500 or 800 Series detectors This manual shall be left with the owner user of equipment Use of the SENS RDR is designed to each smoke detector is within its listed and marked range per NFPA 72 The SENS RDR CANNOT initiate a detector sensor alarm Sensitivity testing not be used as a substitute for smoke entry testing Description battery powered device is equipped with an infrared interface for reading data automatically sent by the detector every ten seconds The SENS RDR decodes sensitivity and status data and displays the informa on its LCD display SENS RDR may be used either as a hand held device with a standard threaded extension pole Operation Turn the reader on by pressing and holding the button approximately 2 seconds until the reader sounds LCD will display the word The indicates that the SENS RDR is ready for accept data from an i3 Series smoke detector Place the reader by the smoke detector being tested Posi the reader at an angle on the oval area or at the cham opening by the word See Figures 1 and 2 ledge and an anti skid tip is provided on the reader to the reader in place while it reads the sensitivity Hold the reader in this position up to 10 seconds until reader sounds and the reader red LED illuminates NOTE If the reader does not sound after 10 seconds that the reader is properly positioned and the displays The LED and sounder indicate a valid reading is re The reader will automatically display two The first is a percent per foot obscuration mea which is displayed for approximately 3 sec Ohio Avenue St Charles Illinois 60174 FAX 630 377 6495 to 120 0 to 49 to 140 to 60 to 90 RH non condensing followed by a textual status indication See Table The reader will continue to display both results for to 30 minutes or until the reader is reset 1 Reader location on compatible System Sen smoke detectors SENS RDR AN ANGLE ON THE AREA OR AT THE OPENING THE WORD 100 SERIES PLACE SENS RDR AT THE CIRCULAR NEAR WORDS NOT PAINT TEST SWITCH 2 Position Reader on compatible System Sen smoke detectors No further readings may be taken until the reader reset To measure the sensitivity of the next detector reset the by momentarily pressing the button The LCD again display the word Repeat steps 2 4 as necessary When finished turn off the reader by pressing and hold the button for approximately 2 seconds until the sounds 1 SENS RDR Status Indications Action detector is within its sensitivity range No ac is necessary at this time smoke detector sensing chamber requires for continued reliable operation Refer to i3 Series installation manual for proper main procedures smoke detector is failing and should be immediately Batteries and Battery Life SENS RDR operates with two AA alkaline batteries Other battery types may result in improper function the reader When the batteries in the SENS RDR get low the display will read BATT Once the low battery is reached the reader will no longer function batteries to restore operation to the SENS RDR SENS RDR automatically turns off when not used after minutes To conserve the battery life of the SENS RDR is recommended that the reader be turned off when not use To turn off the reader press and hold the button for 2 seconds until the reader sounds Limitations of the SENS RDR SENS RDR is designed to assure that each smoke detector is within its listed marked sensitivity range per NFPA 72 fluctuations in readings may be experienced on any device at any given time do not indicate a defect or sensitivity shift provided the reading is within the range These fluctuations are to be expected SENS RDR and its associated smoke detectors sensors contain electronic parts though they are designed to last over 10 years any of these components can fail any time Therefore it is recommended to test your smoke detectors sensors per 72 at least annually Regular cleaning and testing of your fire detection system measurably reduce your product liability risks and minimize nuisance alarms Limited Warranty Sensor warrants its enclosed product to be free from
