Guide which provides detailed information detector spacing placement zoning wiring and spe applications Copies of this manual are available from Sensor This manual should be left with the owner user this equipment The detector used with this base must be and maintained regularly following NFPA 72 require The detector used with this base should be cleaned least once a year Description B401 plug in detector base is used with System Sensor and heat detector heads The capability of plugging detectors into a variety of special bases makes them versatile than equivalent direct wired models Refer the System Sensor catalog for other available plug in bases B401 base is intended for use in 2 wire systems with terminals provided for power and remote annuncia connections 1 Mounting base to box 1 shows mechanical mounting details These detec bases mount to typical junction boxes Attach the base the box using the screws supplied with the junction box Guidelines wiring must be installed in compliance with applicable and the authority having jurisdiction Proper wire should be used The conductors used to connect detectors to control panels and accessory devices be color coded to reduce the likelihood of wiring Improper connections can prevent a system from properly in the event of a fire signal wiring the wiring between interconnected it is recommended that the wire be no smaller 18 gauge Wire sizes up to 12 gauge may be used with base For best system performance the power and loop wires should be twisted pair and installed in sepa grounded conduit to protect the loop from extraneous interference detectors and alarm system control panels have for allowable loop resistance Consult the panel manufacturer specifications for the total resistance allowed for the control panel being used wiring the detector loops Instructions not loop wire under terminals Break wire run to ensure of connections connections are made by stripping about 3 of insu from the end of the wire use strip gauge molded in sliding the bare end of the wire under the clamping and tightening the clamping plate screw initiating devices receive their power from the circuit of a control panel Electrical specifications the control panel and the detector base combination be compatible for the system to function properly Sensor maintains a list of two wire detectors and panels that are listed as compatible The 2 Wire Chart is available from System Sensor at no zone wiring of the detector bases should be checked the detector heads are installed To make this pos this base contains a special spring type shorting shown in Figure 1 After a detector base is prop 2 Typical 2 wire detector wiring configuration A OPTIONAL WIRING wired and mounted to an electrical box make sure the shorting spring is in contact with terminal 3 This connection permits the wiring of the loop to be for continuity before installation of the detector The shorting spring in the base automatically disen when the detector head is removed from the base DO remove the shorting spring since it reengages as the head is turned in the base completing the circuit Feature detector includes an optional tamper resistance fea that prevents its removal from the base without the of a tool DO NOT use the tamper resistant feature if the XR or XR 2 removal tool is to be used make the detector tamper resistant remove the smaller by breaking it at the scribed line on the tamper resis tab before installing the detector see Figure 3A The tab is on the detector mounting base remove a tamper resistant detector from the base use a screwdriver or similar tool to depress the tamper tab and turn the detector counterclockwise The is accessible through the slot on the mounting base see 3B tamper resistance feature can be defeated by breaking removing the plastic lever from the base However this disables the tamper resistance feature Remote Annunciator Units model RA400Z remote LED annunciator is available an optional accessory This unit has a rectangular plate fits U S single gang light switch boxes If a different of remote annunciator is used it must be rated for the voltage which is 2.75 to 3.0V 3A Activating tamper resistance feature 3B Removing detector head from base refer to insert for the Limitations of Fire Alarm Systems Limited Warranty Sensor warrants its enclosed smoke detector
