Detectors Application Guide which provides information on detector spacing placement zoning wiring and spe applications Copies of this application guide are available from System NFPA 72 guidelines should be observed This manual should be left with the owner user of this equipment The detector used with this base must be tested and maintained following NFPA 72 requirements The detector should be cleaned at once a year DESCRIPTION B300 6 and B300 6 IV are plug in detector bases intended for use in an system with screw terminals provided for power and and annunciator connections Communication takes place over the power and TERMINALS FUNCTION 1 TERMINAL LAYOUT Remote Annunciator Annunciator 2 3 1 detector base mounts directly to 4 inch square with and without plaster 4 inch octagon 31 2 inch octagon and single gang junction boxes To remove the decorative ring by turning it in either direction to unhook snaps then separate the ring from the base Install the base on the box the screws supplied with the junction box and the appropriate mounting in the base C0127 07 the decorative trim ring on the base and rotate it in either direction until snaps into place See Figure 2 ON SUPPLIED SUPPLIED C2036 01 AND WIRING GUIDELINES SEE FIGURE 3 wiring must be installed in compliance with all applicable local codes any special requirements of the authority having jurisdiction Proper wire should be used The conductors used to connect smoke detectors to panels and accessory devices should be color coded to reduce the like of wiring errors Improper connections can prevent a system from re properly in the event of a fire signal wiring the wiring between interconnected detectors it is recom that the wire be no smaller than 18 AWG 0.823 mm Wire sizes up 12 AWG 3.31 mm may be used with the base electrical connections by stripping about 3 8 inch 10 mm of insulation the end of the wire use strip gauge molded in base Then slide the wire the clamping plate and tighten the clamping plate screw Do not loop wire under the clamping plate See Figure 4 the zone wiring of all bases in the system before installing the detec This includes checking the wiring for continuity correct polarity ground testing and performing a dielectric test base includes an area for recording the zone address and type of detec being installed This information is useful for setting the detector head and for verification of the detector type required for that location all detector bases have been wired and mounted and the loop wiring been checked the detector heads may be installed in the bases FEATURE Do not use the tamper resist feature if a removal tool will be used 5A ACTIVATE TAMPER RESIST FEATURE LEVER detector base includes a tamper resist feature that prevents removal of the without using a small screwdriver or similar tool activate this feature use needle nose pliers to break the tab on the detector as shown in Figure 5A Then install the detector remove the detector from the base once the tamper resist feature has been remove the decorative ring by rotating it in either direction and it away from the base Then insert a small screwdriver into the notch indicated in Figure 5B and press the plastic lever toward the mounting before rotating the detector counterclockwise for removal LEVER tamper resist feature can be defeated by breaking and removing the plas lever from the base However this prevents the feature from being used ANNUNCIATOR RA100Z the remote annunciator between terminals 1 and 3 using the spade terminal included The spade lug terminal is connected to the base termi as shown in Figure 6 TAB AT DOTTED LINE BY TOWARD CENTER OF BASE is not acceptable to have three stripped wires under the same wiring ter unless they are separated by a washer or equivalent means The spade supplied with the model RA100Z is considered an equivalent means See 3 for proper installation 3 TYPICAL WIRING DIAGRAM FOR 2 WIRE LOOP DO NOT LOOP WIRE TERMINAL 1 OR 2 WIRE RUN TO
