Choosing the installation site
Installation sites for smoke detectors are regulated in the binding application standard DIN EN 14676, which is applicable in Germany.
1. To provide comprehensive protection smoke detectors should be installed in all rooms, corridors, storage areas and basements . It may
be necessary to install more than one smoke detector per area, especially in corridors longer than 15 m. We recommend using several
smoke detectors for rooms larger than 60 m
2
and corridors longer than 10 m.
2. You should at least provide minimum protection and install a smoke detector in every bedroom and children's room, as well as in
corridors used as emergency routes.
3. For optimal protection there should be at leastone smoke detector installed in every room and corridor.
4. Because smoke rises, smoke detectors must always be installed on the ceiling, preferably in the centre of the room, in a horizontal
position. According to DIN EN 14676, a distance of at least 0.5 m from all furniture and the ceiling and walls must be observed.
5. Do not install under the ridge of a roof (place at least 30 - 50 cm below the ridge), near air ducts, or in areas with a severe draught.
Installation sites to be avoided
1. Do not install smoke detectors in areas subject to draught, such as near air conditioner or ventilation intakes.
2. Bathrooms, showers, and rooms where the temperature exceeds 39 ºC or falls below 0 ºC.
3. Under the ridge of a roof, since smoke-free aircan accumulate there in the event of a fire.
4. Kitchens, garages, laundry or boiler rooms, where cooking fumes, vehicle exhaust, dust and humidity may trigger a false alarm.
5. Very dusty or dirty areas. Dirt and dust may accumulate in the smoke alarm and hinder its reliability during operation.
6. Less than 1.50 m from a fluorescent lamp.
Smoke detector installation and start-up The mounting parts included are designed for concrete ceilings. If you have a different mounting
surface you will need to purchase appropriate mounting parts at a specialist store.
