A quick visual inspection is sufficient to indicate the condition of the detector at any time. If more detailed <br /> information is required, a printed report can be provided from the respective Desigo Fire Safety Modular <br /> FireFinder XLS/V I FC/FV20—series FACP that indicates the status and settings assigned to each individual detector. <br /> Installation <br /> All Model FD0421 intelligent, addressable detectors use a surface-mounting base (Model DB-11 or DB-11 E),which <br /> mounts on a 4-inch (10.2 cm.) octagonal, square or single-gang electrical back box. The base utilizes screw-clamp <br /> contacts for electrical connections and self-wiping contacts for increased reliability. <br /> The Model DB-11 detector base can be used with the optional Siemens Model LK-11 detector locking kit, which <br /> contains 50 detector locks and an installation tool to prevent unauthorized removal of the detector head. Model DB- <br /> 11 has aesthetically conducive plugs to cover the outer mounting-screw holes. <br /> Model FD0421 may be installed on the same initiating circuit with the Siemens Model'H'-series detectors <br /> [when used with Desigo Fire Safety Modular I FireFinder XLS/V I FC/FV20—series FACPs] — <br /> • XTRI series interface modules • HFP-11, HFPT-11 detection devices Dimensional . <br /> • HTRI series interface modules • HCP output-control module 4.13"(10.5 cm.D <br /> • HMS&XMS series manual stations • HZM conventional zone module I <br /> Each detector,which is shipped with a protective dust cover, consists of the following: I <br /> • Built-inlSOtechnology for True-Class-XSLC performance (49tni0 <br /> • Dust-resistant photoelectric chamber <br /> (3-7cm.) <br /> • Microprocessor-based electronics with a low-profile plastic housing <br /> All Model FD0421 intelligent, addressable detectors are approved for operation with the Underwriters'Laboratories- <br /> specified temperature range of 32'to 100°F(0'to 38°C). (See: installation manual P/N—A6V10323928 for further details) <br /> ApplicationData "1111MM1111" <br /> Installation of Model FD0421 smoke detectors require a two-wire circuit. In many retrofit cases, existing wiring may be <br /> used. 'T-tapping'is permitted only for Style 4 (Class B)wiring. Model FD0421 is polarity insensitive,which can greatly <br /> reduce installation and debugging times. When operating in NFPA 72 Class-X applications SLC polarity must be <br /> maintained to support up to 252 isolation ready devices per loop. When used in mixed mode a maximum of 30 non- <br /> isolated devices between isolation devices (wired in polarity-insensitive mode). See control panel install document for <br /> further details. <br /> Model FD0421 detectors can be applied within the maximum 30-feet center spacing (900 sq.ft.areas,)as referenced in <br /> NFPA 72.This application guideline is based on ideal conditions—specifically,smooth ceiling surfaces, minimal air <br /> movement, and no physical obstructions between potential fire sources and the actual detector. Do not mount detectors <br /> near ventilation or heating and air conditioning outlets. Exposed joists or beamed ceilings may also affect safe <br /> spacing limitations for detectors. <br /> Should questions arise regarding detector placement, observe NFPA 72 guidelines. Good fire-protection-system <br /> engineering and common sense dictate how and when fire detectors are installed and used. Contact your local <br /> Siemens — Fire Safety distributor or sales office whenever you need assistance applying Model FD0421 in unusual <br /> applications. Be sure to follow NFPA guidelines and UL Listed/ ULC Listed installation instructions— included with every <br /> Siemens— Fire Safety detector—and local codes as for all fire protection equipment. <br /> Field-Device Programmer/ <br /> Model FD0421 is compatible with the Siemens field-device programmer/test unit(Model DPU), which is a compact, <br /> portable menu-driven accessory for electronically programming and testing these addressable detectors promptly and <br /> reliably. For instance,the field technician selects the accessory's program mode, and enters the desired address. <br /> Model DPU eliminates the need for cumbersome, unreliable mechanical programming methods(e.g. —dials and rotary <br /> switches), and reduces installation and service costs by electronically programming and testing the detector prior to <br /> installation. When set in 'test'mode, Model DPU will perform a series of diagnostic tests without altering the address <br /> or other stored data, allowing technicians to determine if the detector is operating properly. <br /> Each field-device programmer/test unit operates on AC power or rechargeable batteries, providing flexibility and <br /> convenience in the programming I testing of fire-safety equipment from practically any location. Additionally, with the <br /> use of a Model DPU unit, there is no longer a cause for concern with any vibration, corrosion and other deteriorating <br /> conditions that can accompany the vitality of electro-mechanical-addressing mechanisms. <br /> Each detector fits into one (1)wall-or-ceiling footprint,and only occupies one (1) address on the signal-line circuit(SLC). <br /> Siemens <br /> Smart Infrastructure- Building Products —3— usa.siemens.com/fire <br />
