GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Models 2351BR and 2351BR-IV are plug-in type smoke sensors that combines a photoelectronic sensing chamber with addressable-analog communications. When used in duct applications with a DNR(W), testing can be done remotely using approved System Sen sor test accessories, eliminating the need for a test coil. The sensors transmit an analog representation of smoke density over a communication line to a control panel. Rotary dial switches are provided for setting the sensor’s address.
FIGURE 1. ROTARY ADDRESS SWITCHES
C0162-00
Two LEDs on the sensor are controlled by the panel to indicate sensor status.
An output is provided for connection to an optional remote LED annunciator
(P/N RA100Z). Note: Only System Sensor approved accessories may be used
with the 2351BR and 2351BR-IV.
System Sensor panels offer different features sets across different models. As
a result, certain features of the photoelectric sensors may be available on
some control panels, but not on others. 2351BR and 2351BR-IV support Advanced
Protocol and CLIP (Classic Loop Interface Protocol) mode. The possible
features available if supported by the control panel are:
- 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.
- The r emote output may be synchronized to the LED operation or con – trolled independent of the LEDs.
- De vices are point addressable up to 159 addresses.
Please refer to the operation manual for the UL listed control panel for specific operation. The 2351BR and 2351BR-IV require compatible addressable communications to function properly. Connect these sensors to listed- compatible control panels only.
SPACING
System Sensor recommends spacing sensors in compliance with NFPA 72. In low
air flow applications with smooth ceilings, space sensors 30 feet apart (9.1
m). For specific information regarding sensor spacing, placement, and special
applications, refer to NFPA 72 or the System Smoke Detector Application Guide,
available from System Sensor.
Duct Applications: 2351BR and 2351BR-IV are listed for use in ducts. See Duct
Smoke Detectors Applications Guide HVAG53 for details on pendant mount
applications. NOTE: 2351BR and 2351BR-IV are also listed for use inside
DNR(W) duct smoke detectors.
WIRING GUIDE
All wiring must be installed in compliance with the National Electrical Code,
applicable local codes, and any special requirements of 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.
- Wire the sensor base (supplied separately) per the wiring diagram, Figure 2.
- Set the desired address on the sensor address switches, see Figure 1.
- Install the sensor into the sensor base. Push the sensor into the base while turning it clockwise to secure it in place.
- After all sensors have been installed, apply power to the control panel and activate the communication line.
- Test the sensor(s) as described in the TESTING section of this manual.
CAUTION
Dust covers provide limited protection against airborne dust particles during shipping. Dust covers must be removed before the sensors can sense smoke. Remove sensors prior to heavy remodeling or construction.
FIGURE 2. WIRING DIAGRAM
CAUTION: Do not loop wire under terminal 1 or 2. Break wire run to
supervise connections.
TAMPER-RESISTANCE
Models 2351BR and 2351BR-IV include a tamper-resistant capability that prevents their 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 NFPA
72.
The sensor can be tested in the following ways:
A. Functional: Magnet Test (P/N MO2-04-01 or MO2-09-00)
This sensor can be functionally tested with a test magnet. The test magnet
electronically simulates smoke in the sensing chamber, testing the sensor
electronics and connections to the control panel. 1. Hold the test magnet in
the magnet test area as shown in Figure 3. 2. The sensor should alarm the
panel. Two LEDs on the sensor are controlled by the panel to indicate sensor
status. Coded signals, transmitted from the panel, can cause the LEDs to
blink, latch on, or latch oft Refer to the control panel technical documen-
tation for sensor LED status operation and expected delay to alarm.
B. Smoke Entry
Sensitivity readings are available through the FACP. Refer to the manufac-
turer’s published instructions for proper use. Additionally, canned aerosol
simulated smoke (canned smoke agent) may be used for smoke entry testing of
the smoke detector. Tested and ap-proved aerosol smoke products are:
Manufacturer | Model |
---|---|
HSI Fire & Safety | 25S, 30S (PURCHECK) |
SDi | SMOKE CENTURIAN, SOLOA4, SMOKESABRE, TRUTEST |
No Climb | TESTIFIRE 2000 |
When used properly, the canned smoke agent will cause the smoke detector to go into alarm. Refer to the manufacturer’s published instructions for proper use of the canned smoke agent.
CAUTION
Canned aerosol simulated smoke (canned smoke agent) formulas will vary by
manufacturer. Misuse or overuse of these products may have long term adverse
effects on the smoke detector. Consult the canned smoke agent manufacturer’s
published instructions for any further warnings or caution statements.
C. Remote Test.
2351BR and 2351BR-IV can be remotely tested using the RTS151 or RTS151KEY test
accessories. Refer to the DNR(W) manual for wiring dia-grams. Maximum test
response time may be up to two communications from the panel.
A sensor that fails any of these tests may need to be cleaned as described
under CLEANING, and retested. When testing is complete, restore the system to
normal operation and notify the proper authorities that the system is back in
operation.
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 un- wanted alarms.
- Remove the sensor to be cleaned from the system.
- Remove the sensor cover by pressing firmly on each of the four removal tabs that hold the cover in place.
- Vacuum the screen carefully without removing it. If further cleaning is required continue with Step 4, otherwise skip to Step 7.
- Remove the chamber cover/screen assembly by pulling it straight out.
- Use a vacuum cleaner or compressed air to remove dust and debris from the sensing chamber.
- Reinstall the chamber cover/screen assembly by sliding the edge over the sensing chamber. Turn until it is firmly in place.
- Replace the cover using the LEDs to align the cover and then gently push-ing it until it locks into place.
- Reinstall the detector.
- Test the detector as described in TESTING.
- Reconnect disabled circuits.
- Notify the proper authorities that the system is back on line.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING SMOKE DETECTOR GUARDS
Smoke detectors are not to be used with detector guards unless the combina-
tion has been evaluated and found suitable for that purpose.

FIGURE 4. CLEANING THE PHOTO DETECTOR
SPECIAL APPLICATION
When configured at the fire alarm control panel, this detector is capable of
operating in a special application mode such that it has a higher sensitivity
than is normally allowed by UL 268 for areas where early warning is important.
In this mode, the detector does not comply with the Cooking Nuisance Smoke
Test. Detectors (Sampling ports) set to the special application mode are not
suitable for use in areas where cooking appliances may be used. If cooking
appliances are used within the protected space, a normal application detector
or normal application mode must be used for that area.
Special application mode is not for general use and the detector may be more
prone to false alarms if used in unsuitable environments. While no list is
all-inclusive, some examples of unsuitable environments for special
application mode are areas with airborne particulate or aerosols including
sawing, drilling, and grinding operations, textile or agricultural processing,
or areas with engines that are not vented to the outside. A complete list of
aerosol and particulate sources is available in the Annex of NFPA 72. Suitable
environments for special application mode could include early warn- ing for
hospitals, museums, assisted living and other areas that do not have airborne
particulate or aerosols.
Refer to the fire alarm control panel documentation for information on how to
configure the detector for special application mode.
