CAN/ULC S530 listed for Heat Detectors
This sensor must be installed in compliance with the control panel system installation manual. The installation must meet the requirements of the Au- thority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Sensors offer maximum performance when installed in compliance with CAN/ULC S524.
Before installing sensors, please read the system wiring and installation man- ual thoroughly. This manual provides detailed information on sensor spac-ing, placement, zoning, and special applications. Copies of these manuals are available from Mircom.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

Models MIX-5351APA, MIX-5351RAPA, and MIX-5351HAPA are field program-mable intelligent sensors that use a state-of-the-art thermistor sensing circuit for fast response. These sensors are designed to provide open area protection with 50-foot spacing capability as approved by CAN/ULC S530. The intelligent temperature sensor can be programmed as either a 135°F fixed temperature sensor, a rate of rise and 135°F fixed temperature sensor or a 190°F high tem- perature sensor through the Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP). Two LEDs on each sensor light to provide a local, visible sensor indication. Remote LED annunciator capability is available as an optional accessory (Part No. RA100ZA). Rotary dial switches are provided for setting the sensor’s address. (See Figure 1.)

FIGURE 1. ROTARY ADDRESS SWITCHES

Mircom panels offer different feature sets across different models. As a re- sult, certain features of the Intelligent Programmable Temperature Sensors may be available on some control panels, but not on others. MIX-5351APA, MIX- 5351RAPA, and MIX-5351HAPA support Advanced Protocol and CLIP (Classic Loop Interface Protocol) mode.
The possible features available if supported by the control panel include:

1. The sensor’s LEDs can operate in three ways—on, off, and blinking–and they can be set to red, green, or amber. This is controlled by the panel.
2. The remote output may be synchronized to the LED operation or con-trolled independent of the LEDs. Please refer to the operation manual for the ULC listed control unit for specific operation of these models
3. Devices are point addressable up to 159 addresses.
4. The heat sensor operates as a programmable heat detector.

NOTE: In panels where this feature is not available the MIX-5351APA will default to a 135°F fixed heat detector. MIX-5351RAPA will default to a 135°F fixed heat detector and rate-of-rise. MIX-5351HAPA will default to a 190°F high temperature heat detector.

Intelligent programmable temperature sensors require compatible addressable communications to function properly. Connect these sensors to listed-compat- ible control panels only.

WIRING GUIDE

All wiring must be installed in compliance with the Canadian Electrical Code, applicable local codes and the Authority Having Jurisdiction. Proper wire gauges should be used. The installation wires should be color coded to limit wiring mistakes and ease system troubleshooting. Improper connections will prevent a system from responding properly in the event of a fire.
Remove power from the communication line before installing sensors.

1. Wire the sensor base (supplied separately) as shown in the wiring diagram. (See Figure 2.)
2. Set the desired address on the rotary dial switches. (See Figure 1.)
3. Install the sensor into the sensor base. Push the sensor into the base while turning it clockwise to secure it in place.
4. After all sensors have been installed, apply power to the control unit and activate the communication line.
5. Test the sensor(s) as described in the TESTING section of this manual. FIGURE 2. WIRING DIAGRAM

TAMPER RESISTANCE

Intelligent programmable temperature sensors include a tamper-resistant ca- pability that prevents removal from the base without the use of a tool. Refer to the base manual for details on making use of this capability.

TESTING

Before testing, notify the proper authorities that the system is undergoing maintenance, and will temporarily be out of service. Disable the system to prevent unwanted alarms.
All sensors must be tested after installation and periodically thereafter. Test-ing methods must satisfy the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Sensors offer maximum performance when tested and maintained in compliance with CAN/ULC S536.

A. Test Magnet (Model No. M02-04 – optional)

1. Place the optional test magnet against the cover in the magnet test area, as shown in Figure 3, to activate the test feature.
2. The LEDs should latch on within 10 seconds, indicating alarm and annunciating the panel.
3. Reset the detector at the system control panel.

B. Direct Heat Method (Hair dryer of 1000 – 1500 watts)

1.  From the side of the detector, direct the heat toward the sensor. Hold the heat source about 6 inches (15 cm) away to prevent damage to the cover during testing.
2. The LEDs on the detector should light when the temperature at the detector reaches the alarm setpoint. If the LEDs fail to light, check the power to the detector and the wiring in the detector base.
3. Reset the detector at the system control panel.

Detectors that fail these tests may need to be cleaned as described under CLEANING and retested.

CLEANING

Before removing the detector, notify the proper authorities that the smoke detector system is undergoing maintenance and will be temporarily out of service.
Disable the zone or system undergoing maintenance to prevent unwanted alarms.

1. Remove the sensor to be cleaned from the system.
2. Use a vacuum cleaner or compressed air to remove dust and debris from the sensing area.
3. Reinstall the detector.
4. Test the detector as described in TESTING.
5. Reconnect disabled circuits.
6. Notify the proper authorities that the system is back on line.

FM CLASSIFICATION
RTI ratings are for installations which must comply with FM 3210.

• 135°F Fixed RTI: FAST
• Rate of Rise/135°F Fixed RTI: V2-FAST
• 190°F Fixed RTI: QUICK

FCC STATEMENT

This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television recep-tion, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

• Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.
•  Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver.
• Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is con-nected.
•  Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-003.

DEVICE AND SYSTEM SECURITY

Before installing this product ensure that the tamper seal on the packaging is present and unbroken and the product has not been tampered with since leaving the factory. Do not install this product if there are any indications of tampering. If there are any signs of tampering the product should be returned to the point of purchase.
It is the responsibility of the system owner to ensure that all system components, i.e. devices, panels, wiring etc., are adequately protected to avoid tampering of the system that could result in information disclosure, spoofing, and integrity violation.
