•
Each smoke detector installed in engine room areas shall have cables that are
two (2) meters longer than needed, this to make it possible to relocate the
detector position when performing “real” smoke tests with fans etc. running.
•
In cabins and in lockers, mount the detector with its LEDs facing toward the
door. (Not applicable for detectors with OmniView LED.)
6.4.4 Aspiration detectors
•
Push hose end to the bottom in the hose connector.
•
When installing the hose - take into account the minimum internal bending
radius.
•
Install the outlet sampling pipe so it ends in the same space as the inlet pipe
starts – but the pipes should not be placed too close to each other.
•
If required, make sure that:
•
the air from the inlet is filtered
•
the air inlet is mechanically protected from vandalism
6.4.5 Heat detectors
NOTE!
Heat detectors shall only be installed if no other detection principle is suitable. Heat
detectors may be a combination of rate of rise, and fixed temperature. Response time
of a heat detector is slower than other detector types, such as smoke detector.
Heat detectors are recommended to be used in areas where smoke or other detector
types are not suitable, such as kitchen, saunas, or areas where the detector are
normally exposed to water.
•
Install a heat detector in an area’s center and where it can work reliably and
provide the best protection.
•
The alarm temperature of a heat detector shall always be at least 30 ºC above
normal temperature.
•
Avoid placing the detector near heat-generating devices, which could cause
unwanted alarms.
•
In cabins and in lockers, mount the detector with its LEDs facing the door.
(Not applicable for detectors with OmniView LED.)
6.4.6 Flame detectors
•
Install flame detectors where flames, in the initial stage of a fire, might arise.
•
Mount the detector giving it wide access to the whole area where the flames
are expected. The detector should be aimed toward the center of the detection
zone and have a completely unobstructed view of the protected area.
•
Mount the detector in such a way that vibrations are avoided as much as
possible.
