DH100ACDCLP Air Duct Smoke Detector

The Innovair DH100ACDCLP model is a photoelectric detector approved for an extended air speed range of 100 to 4000 feet per minute (0.5 m/s to 20.3 m/s) and an operational temperature range of 32°F to 131°F (0°C to 55°C).

Before Installing
Please thoroughly read the System Sensor Guide for Proper Use of Smoke Detectors in Duct Applications (I56-473), which provides detailed information on detector spacing, placement, zoning, wiring, and special applications. Copies of this manual are available from System Sensor. NFPA Standards 72 and 90A should also be referenced for detailed information.
NOTICE: This manual shall be left with the owner/user of this equipment.
IMPORTANT: This detector must be tested and maintained regularly following NFPA 72 requirements. The detector should be cleaned at least once a year.

General Description

An HVAC system supplies conditioned air to virtually every area of a building. Smoke introduced into this air duct system will be distributed throughout the entire building. Smoke detectors designed for use in air duct systems are used to sense the presence of smoke in the duct.
Model DH100ACDCLP Air Duct Smoke Detector utilizes photoelectric technology for the detection of smoke. This detection method, when combined with an efficient housing design, samples air passing through the duct and allows detection of a developing hazardous condition. When sufficient smoke is sensed, an alarm signal is initiated  and appropriate action can be taken to shut off fans, blowers,  change over air handling systems, etc. These actions can  facilitate the management of toxic smoke and fire gases throughout the areas served by the duct system.
The DH100ACDCLP detector is designed to operate on 24 VDC/VAC, 120 VAC, or 240 VAC. Alarm and supervisory relay contacts are available for control panel interface (alarm initiation), HVAC control, and other auxiliary functions.
Auxiliary relays are also provided for fan shut down or signaling of up to 9 other detectors in the loop for multiple fan shut down. These detectors are not designed for 2-wire
applications.
For testing, the alarm can be enabled by a magnet activated test switch or by the optional remote test station. The duct smoke detector latches into alarm state when an alarm occurs. A green LED flashes to indicate power, a red LED signals local alarm indication, and optional accessories offer a variety of annunciation capabilities.
The DH100ACDCLP can be reset by a momentary power interruption, the reset button on the front cover, the control panel, or remote reset accessory. The DH100ACDCLP incorporates a cover tamper feature that provides a trouble signal after 20 minutes if the cover is removed or improperly installed. Proper installation of the cover removes the trouble condition.

Limitations Of Duct Smoke Detectors

WARNING
The National Fire Protection Association has established that DUCT DETECTORS MUST NOT BE USED AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR OPEN AREA DETECTOR PROTECTION as a means of providing life safety. Nor are they a substitute for early warning in a building’s regular fire detection system. System Sensor supports this position and strongly recommends that the user read  NFPA Standards 90 A, 72, and 101. The DH100ACDCLP Air Duct Smoke Detectors are listed per UL 268 A.
WARNING
This device will not operate without electrical power. Fire situations may cause an interruption of power. The system safeguards should be discussed with your local fire protection specialist.
WARNING
This device will not sense smoke unless the ventilation system is operating and the cover is installed.
WARNING
For this detector to function properly, it MUST be installed according to the instructions in this manual. Furthermore, the detector MUST be operated within ALL electrical and environmental specifications listed in this manual. Failure to comply with these requirements may prevent the detector from activating when smoke is present in the air duct.

NOTE: For ducts over 1½ feet, longer inlet sampling tubes must be ordered to complete the installation. They must be the correct length for the width of the duct where they will be installed. See Table 1 on page 3 to determine the inlet tube required for different duct widths.

Installation Sequence

[5.1] Verify Duct Air Flow Direction And Velocity
Model DH100ACDCLP detectors are designed to be used in air handling systems having air velocities of 100 to 4000 feet per minute. Be sure to check engineering specifications to ensure that the air velocity in the duct falls within these parameters. If necessary, use a velocity meter (anemometer) to check the air velocity in the duct.
[5.2] Drill The Mounting Holes
Remove the paper backing from the mounting template supplied. Affix the template to the duct at the desired mounting location. Make sure the template lies flat and smooth on the duct. Center punch holes A and B. Drill the holes as indicated on the template. Insert the two jack nut receptacles. Drive a #10 machine screw into jacket to flare the retainer, then back out the screw to use for detector mounting.

[5.2.1] Sampling Tube Installation for Ducts Less Than 1½ Feet Wide (see Figure 2)

  1. Remove the front cover.
  2. Slide the plastic sampling tube into the housing bushing.
  3.  Align the holes in the bushing with the holes in the sampling tube. Make sure there  are 6 exposed holes on the plastic sampling  tube. Secure with the #8 self-tapping screw into the bottom of the permanent tube (shown in Fig. 2).

NOTE:
For ducts greater than 1½ feet in width, refer to sections [5.4.1] and [5.4.2].
Figure 2. Plastic sampling tube connected to duct smoke detector:

[5.3] Secure The Detector Housing To The Duct

[5.4] Sampling Tube Installation for Ducts Greater Than 1 ½ Feet Wide
The sampling tube is identified by a series of air inlet holes on the tube. A plastic tube is included for ducts up to 18 in width. All other lengths must be purchased separately. Order the correct length, as specified in Table 1, for width of the duct where it will be installed. It is recommended that the sampling tube length extend at least ¾ across the duct width for optimal performance. The exhaust tube is molded onto the base of the duct housing, and the A 2440-00 Exhaust Tube Extension is available as an accessory in those cases where the molded exhaust port does not extend at least 2 inches into the duct.
The inlet tube is always installed with the air inlet holes facing into the air flow. To assist proper installation, the tube’s mounting flange is marked with arrows. Make sure the inlet tube is mounted so that the arrows point into the air flow (see Figure 4). Figure 5 shows the various combinations of tube mounting configurations with respect to air flow. Mounting the detector housing in a vertical  orientation is acceptable,provided that the air flows directly into the sampling tube holes as indicated in  Figure 4.
Table 1. Inlet tubes recommended for different duct widths:

Outside Duct Width **Inlet Tube Recommended***
1 to 2 ft. ST-1.5
2 to 4 ft. ST-3
4 to 8 ft. ST-5
8 to 12 ft. ST-10

*Must extend a minimum of ⅔ the duct width

[5.4.1] Installation For Ducts Greater Than 1 ½ Feet But Less Than 8 Feet Wide

  1. If the tube is longer than the width of the air duct, drill a ¾ hole in the duct opposite the hole already cut for the inlet tube. Make sure the hole is 1 to 2 below the inlet hole on the opposite side of the duct to allow moisture drainage away from the detector. If the tube is shorter than the width of the air duct, install the end plug into the inlet tube as shown in Figure 4. Sampling tubes over 3 ft. long must be supported at the end opposite the duct smoke detector.
  2. Slide the tube into the housing bushing that meets the air flow first. Position the tube so that the arrows point into the air flow.
  3. Secure the tube flange to the housing bushing with two #6 self-tapping screws.
  4. For tubes longer than the width of the air duct, the tube should extend out of the opposite side of the duct. If there are more than 2 holes in the section of the tube extending out of the duct, select a different length using Table 1. Otherwise, trim the end of the tube protruding through the duct so that 1 to 2 of the tube extend outside the duct. Plug this end with the end plug and tape closed any holes in the  protruding section of the tube. Be sure to seal the duct where the tube protrudes.

NOTE: Only metal sampling tubes may be used on orientations C and D.
[5.4.2] Installation For Ducts More Than 8 Feet Wide
NOTE:
To install inlet tubes in ducts more than 8 feet wide, work must be performed inside the air duct. Sampling of air in ducts wider than 8 feet is accomplished by using the ST-10 inlet sampling tube. If the tube is shorter than the width of the air duct, install the end plug into the inlet tube as shown in Figure 4 and support the end opposite the duct smoke detector.

Install the inlet tube as follows:

  1. Drill a ¾ hole in the duct directly opposite the hole already drilled for the inlet tube. Make sure the hole is 1 to 2 below the inlet hole on the opposite side of the duct to allow for moisture drainage.
  2. Slide the inlet tube with the flange into the housing bushing that meets the air flow first. Position the tube so that the arrows point into the air flow. Secure the tube flange to the housing bushing with two #6 self-tapping screws.
  3. From inside the duct, couple the other sections of the inlet tube to the section already installed using the ½ conduit fittings supplied. Make sure that the holes on both of the air inlet tubes are lined up and facing into the air flow.
  4. Trim the end of the tube protruding through the duct so that 1 to 2 of the tube extend outside the duct. Plug this end with the end plug and tape closed any holes in the protruding section of the tube. Be sure to seal the duct when the tube protrudes.

NOTE: An alternate method to using the ST-10 is to use two ST-5 inlet tubes. Remove the flange from one of the tubes and install as described above. After the installation, use electrical tape to close off some of the sampling holes so that there are a total of 10 to 12 holes spaced as evenly as possible across the width of the duct.
NOTE: Air currents inside the duct may cause excessive vibration, especially when the longer sampling tubes are used. In these cases a 3 floor flange (available at most plumbing supply stores) may be used to fasten the sampling tube to the other side of the duct. When using the flange/connector mounting technique, drill a 1 to 1 ¼ hole where the flange will be used.

[5.4.3] Modifications of Inlet Sampling Tubes
There may be applications where duct widths are not what is specified for the installation. In such cases, it is permissible to modify an inlet sampling tube that is longer than necessary to span the duct width.
Use a 0.193-inch diameter (#10) drill and add the appropriate number of holes so that the total number of holes exposed to the air flow in the duct is 10 to 12. Space the additional holes as evenly as possible over the length of the tube.
NOTE: This procedure should only be used as a temporary fix. It is not intended as a permanent substitute for ordering the correct length tubes.
Figure 6. Sampling tube filter installation:

CAUTION
Filters require periodic cleaning or replacement, depending on the amount of dust and dirt accumulated. Visually inspect the filters at least quarterly; inspect them more often if the dust accumulation warrants it. See Section [6] for more information. Replacement filters can be ordered from System Sensor, 3825 Ohio Ave., St. Charles, IL 60174. (Exhaust tube/intake tube filter P/N F 36-09-11)
[5.6] Field Wiring Installation Guidelines
All wiring must be installed in compliance with the National Electrical Code and the local codes having jurisdiction. Proper wire gauges should be used. The conductors used to connect smoke detectors to control panels and accessory devices should be color-coded to prevent wiring mistakes. Improper connections can prevent a system from responding properly in the event of a fire.
For signal wiring, (the wiring between interconnected detectors or from detectors to auxiliary devices), it is usually recommended that single conductor wire be no smaller than 18 gauge. The duct smoke detector terminals accommodate wire sizes up to 12 gauge.
Smoke detectors and alarm system control panels have specifications for allowable loop resistance. Consult the control panel manufacturer’s specifications for the total loop resistance allowed for the particular model control panel being used before wiring the detector loop.
Wiring Instructions
The DH100ACDCLP detectors are designed for easy wiring. The housing provides a terminal strip with clamping plates. Wiring connections are made by stripping about ⅜ of insulation from the end of the wire, sliding the bare end under the plate, and tightening the clamping plate screw.

[5.7] Perform Detector Check

  1. Perform STANDBY AND TROUBLE TEST per Section [6.2.1].
  2. Perform MAGNET TEST per Section [6.2.2.1]. The RTS451 test of Section [6.2.2.2] may substitute for this requirement.
  3. Perform AIR FLOW TEST per Section [6.1.1].
  4. Perform SMOKE RESPONSE TEST per Section [6.1.2].
  5. Perform SENSITIVITY TEST per Section [6.2.3].

[5.8] Install The Cover
Install the cover using the six screws that are captured in the housing cover. Be certain filters are installed as specified in Section [5.5]. Make sure that the cover fits into the base groove and that all gaskets are in their proper positions. Tighten the six screws.

Duct Smoke Detector Maintenance And Test Procedures

Test and maintain duct smoke detectors as recommended in NFPA 72. The tests contained in this manual were devised to assist maintenance personnel in verification of proper detector operation.
Before conducting these tests, notify the proper authorities that the smoke detection system will be temporarily out of service. Disable the zone or system under test to prevent unwanted alarms.
[6.1] Smoke Entry Tests
[6.1.1] Air Flow
The DH100ACDCLP is designed to operate over an extended air speed range of 100 to 4000 FPM. To verify sufficient sampling of ducked air, turn the air handler on and use a manometer to measure the differential pressure between the two sampling tubes. The differential pressure should measure at least 0.0015 inches of water and no more than 1.2 inches of water. Because most commercially available manometers cannot accurately measure very low pressure differentials, applications with less than 500 FPM of duct air speed may require one of the following: 1) the use of a current-sourcing pressure transmitter (Dwyer model numbers 607-1 or 607-01) per Section 6.1.2 or; 2) the use of aerosol smoke per section 6.1.2.
[6.1.2] Air Flow Test using Dwyer Model 601-0 or 601-01 Differential Pressure Transmitter
Verify the air speed of the duct using an anemometer. Air speed must be at least 100 FPM. Wire the Dwyer transmitter as shown in Figure 7. Connect the leads of the meter to either side of the 1000Ω resistor. Allow unit to warm up for 15 seconds. With both HIGH and LOW pressure ports open
Figure 7. Procedure for verifying air flow:

SYSTEM SENSOR DH100ACDCLP Air Duct Smoke Detector-flow to ambient air, measure and record the voltage drop across the 1000Ω resistor (measurement 1), 4.00 volts is typical.
Using flexible tubing and rubber stoppers, connect the HIGH side of the transmitter to the inlet sampling tube of the duct smoke detector housing, and the LOW side of the transmitter to the exhaust sampling tube of the duct smoke detector housing. Measure and record the voltage drop across the 1000Ω resistor (measurement 2). Subtract the voltage recorded in measurement 1 from the voltage recorded in measurement 2. If the difference is greater than 0.15 volts, there is enough air flow through the duct smoke detector for proper operation.
[6.1.3] Air Flow Test using Aerosol Smoke
Drill a 1 ⁄4 hole 3 feet upstream from the duct smoke detector. With the air handler on, measure the air velocity with an anemometer. Air speed must be at least 100 FPM. If the air speed is greater than 500 FPM, use a conventional manometer to measure differential pressure between the sampling tubes. Spray aerosol smoke into the duct through the 1 ⁄4 hole for five seconds. Wait two minutes for the duct smoke detector to alarm. If the duct smoke detector alarms, air is flowing through the detector. Remove the duct smoke detector cover and blow out the residual aerosol smoke from the chamber and reset the duct smoke detector. Use duct tape to seal the aerosol smoke entry hole.
Aerosol smoke can be purchased from Home Safeguard Industries, Malibu, CA. Phone: 310/457-5813.
To determine if smoke is capable of entering the sensing chamber, visually identify any obstructions. Plug the exhaust and inlet tube holes to prevent dusted air from carrying smoke away from the detector head, then blow smoke such as cigarette, cotton wick, or punk directly at the head to cause an alarm. REMEMBER TO REMOVE THE PLUGS AFTER THIS TEST, OR THE DETECTOR WILL NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY.
[6.1.4] Filter Replacement
The filters do not substantially affect smoke performance even when up to 90% of the filter is clogged. Quarterly visual inspection usually suffices to determine whether the filters should be replaced because only a high percentage of contamination affects performance. If further testing is required, compare differential pressure readings with and without the filters installed. If the difference exceeds 10% replace the filters. In no case should the pressure differential fall below 0.0015 inches of water.
[6.2] Standby, Alarm and Sensitivity Tests
The cover must be removed to perform these tests. The use of a remote accessory for visible indication of power and alarm is recommended.
[6.2.1] Standby And Trouble
Standby — Look for the presence of the flashing green LED. The LED should flash approximately every 10 seconds.

Trouble — If the detector LED does not flash, then the detector lacks power (check wiring, panel, or power supply), the detector board is missing (replace), the cover has been missing or not secured properly for more than 20 minutes (secure cover properly), or the unit is defective (return for repair).
Test —The trouble condition can be caused intentionally to verify correct operation of the system. Remove the detector board to cause a trouble condition locally and at the system control panel.
Cover Tamper — If the cover is removed or not properly secured for a period longer than 20 minutes, a trouble signal is generated to indicate the cover is missing.
[6.2.2] Alarm Tests
[6.2.2.1] M02-04-00 Magnet Test

  1. Place the painted surface of the magnet onto the TEST locator on the bottom of the housing (Figure 14).
  2. The red alarm LED on the detector should latch on, as should any accessories (i.e. RA400Z, RTS451). Verify system control panel alarm status and control panel execution of all intended auxiliary functions (i.e. fan shutdown, damper control, etc.).
  3. The detector must be reset by system control panel, front cover reset button, or remote accessory.

[6.2.2.2] RTS451/RTS451KEY Remote Test Station
The RTS451/RTS451KEY Remote Test Station facilitates test of the alarm capability of the duct smoke detector as indicated in the RTS451/RTS451KEY manual. The DH100ACDCLP duct smoke detector can be reset by the RTS451/RTS451KEY. If a system control panel is used, the panel itself may also require testing.
To install the RTS451/RTS451KEY, connect the device as shown in Figure 10; wire runs must be limited to 25 ohms or less per interconnecting wire.

Please note that the magnetic coil supplied with the RTS451 and RTS451KEY is not required when these accessories are used with the DH100 Series detectors. The functionality of the magnetic coil has been designed into the circuitry of the new Innovair™ duct smoke detectors.
[6.2.2.3] SSK451 Multi-Signaling Accessory
The System Sensor SSK451 Multi-Signaling accessory combines a sounder feature with a key activated test and reset function. Green, amber and red LEDs provide a visual indication of power, trouble, and alarm respectively. An optional strobe (PS24LO) with a smoke lens can be added to conform to the codes of certain jurisdictions.
To install the SSK451, connect the device as shown in figure 13.
[6.2.3] Sensitivity Tests [6.2.3.1] MOD400 or MOD400R Test After verification of alarm capability, use the MOD400R test module with a voltmeter to check detector sensitivity as indicated in the test module’s manual. The housing cover must be removed to perform this test.
If test module readings indicate that the detector head is outside of the acceptable range that is printed on the label of the detector, the detector chamber requires cleaning per Section [7] of this manual.
