Minimum Seconds Maximum Seconds Maximum Installing thoroughly read the System Sensor manual I56 407 for Proper Use of System Smoke Detectors which pro detailed information on detector spacing placement wiring and special applications Copies of this are available at no charge from System Sensor For in Canada please refer to CAN4 S524 for the Installation of Fire Alarm Systems and CEC 1 Sec 32 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 B406B plug in detector base is used with a variety of Sensor conventional detector heads They are capa of accepting a variety of detector heads which makes more versatile than equivalent direct wired models to the System Sensor catalog for other available plug detector bases B406B base is intended for use in 2 wire systems with terminals provided for power and relay contact con These bases MUST be current limited by the sys control panel in the alarm state detector base mounts directly to 31 and 4 inch boxes and 4 inch square boxes with or without rings To mount remove decorative ring by turning in either direction to unhook the snaps then separate the from the base Install the base to the box using the supplied with the junction box and the appropriate slots in the base Place decorative ring onto base turn in either direction until the ring snaps in place Figure 1 Guidelines wiring must be installed in compliance with the Electrical Code and the local codes having juris Proper wire gauges should be used The conduc used to connect smoke detectors to control panels and devices should be color coded to prevent 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 sep 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 of the particular model control panel being before wiring the detector loops Instructions system supervision For terminals 2 3 and 5 do not looped wire under terminals Break wire run to provide supervision of connections connections are made by simply stripping insulation the end of the wire sliding the bare end of the wire the clamping plate and tightening the clamping screw Use the strip gauges molded into the inside underside of the base for ease of wiring to terminals 1 5 and to terminals 12 through 14 respectively Sensor smoke detectors and mounting bases are with a compatibility identifier located as the last of a five digit code stamped on the back of the prod Connect detectors mounting bases only to compatible units as indicated in System Sensor compatibility which contains a current list of UL listed control units 1 Mounting base to box ON NOT NOT detector head base combinations A copy of this list is from System Sensor upon request zone wiring of the detector base should be checked the detector heads are installed in them To make possible this base contains a special spring type short jumper After a detector base is properly wired and on an electrical box make sure that the jumper is in contact with the base of Terminal 3 This tem connection shorts the positive in and positive out and permits the wiring of the loop to be checked for all the detector bases have been wired and mounted the loop wiring has been checked the detector heads be installed in the bases The shorting spring in the will disengage automatically when the detector head removed from the base DO NOT remove the shorting since it reengages as the detector head is turned into base completing the circuit 2 Typical wiring diagram POWER LOOP CONTACT AUXILIARY FORM C POWER LOOP A OPTIONAL WIRING Feature not use the tamper resistance feature if the XR5 removal is to be used detector base includes an optional tamper resistance that when activated prevents removal of the detec without the use of a tool activate this feature simply break off the tab on the base shown in Figure 3A then install the detector remove the detector from the base once the tamper feature has been activated place a small bladed into the small hole on the side of the base and plastic lever away from the detector head see Figure This will allow the detector to be rotated counter for removal Head removal after the tamper resistance feature been activated first requires removal of the ring tamper resistance feature may be defeated by breaking removing the plastic lever from the base however this ever using the feature again 3A Activating tamper resistance feature 3B Removing detector head from base LEVER TAB AT LINE BY TOWARD OF BASE SMALL BLADED TO PLASTIC LEVER DIRECTION OF refer to insert for the Limitations of Fire Alarm Systems Limited Warranty Sensor warrants its
