Installation
These products must be installed in accordance with the applicable NFPA standards, local
codes and jurisdictional authorities. Failure to follow these instructions may result in failure of
the detectors to report an alarm condition. Apollo Fire Detectors Limited is not responsible
for detectors which are improperly installed, maintained or tested.
Before installing these products, check the continuity, polarity and insulation resistance
of all wiring. Check that installation is in accordance with the fi re system drawings and
conforms to all applicable local codes such as NFPA 72.
Use 3" octagonal box for direct connection to the base. 4" octagonal and 4" square boxes
may be used with compatible UL listed mounting brackets. When mounting on a wall, install
4" to 12" from the ceiling. Secure the base to the electrical box with appropriate screws.
Do not overtighten the screws. For information on how to set the address of each device
correctly refer to the section 'XPERT 8 Card Addressing' overleaf.
If you are using shielded cable, please follow the instructions below:
1. Connect the shield to the
terminal on the base.
2. When shielded loop cable is used, connection of the shield, also known as the functional
earth (FE), must be terminated in accordance with the control panel manufacturer’s
recommendations and local codes.
3. Unless instructed otherwise, ensure that all segments of the loop cable has functional
earth (FE) continuity and take care that it is isolated from building earth (also known as
protective earth (PE)) points such as metalwork, cable trays or junction boxes.
PLEASE NOTE:
Smoke detectors are NOT to be used with detector guards.
During construction work it is essential that the detector has it’s dust cover fi tted. The
build-up of dust inside a detector can lead to a trouble signal or false alarm.
