Installation
These products must be installed in accordance with the applicable NFPA
standards, local codes and jurisdictional authorities. Failure to follow these
instructions may result in failure of the detectors to report an alarm
condition. Apollo Fire Detectors Limited is not responsible for detectors
which are improperly installed, maintained or tested.
Before installing these products, check the continuity, polarity and
insulation resistance of all wiring. Check that installation is in accordance
with the fi re system drawings and conforms to all applicable local codes such
as NFPA 72.
Use 3″ octagonal box for direct connection to the base. 4″ octagonal and 4″
square boxes may be used with compatible UL listed mounting brackets. When
mounting on a wall, install 4″ to 12″ from the ceiling. Secure the base to the
electrical box with appropriate screws.
Do not overtighten the screws. For information on how to set the address of
each device correctly refer to the section ‘XPERT 8 Card Addressing’ overleaf.
If you are using shielded cable, please follow the instructions below:
- Connect the shield to the terminal on the base.
- When shielded loop cable is used, connection of the shield, also known as the functional earth (FE), must be terminated in accordance with the control panel manufacturer’s recommendations and local codes.
- Unless instructed otherwise, ensure that all segments of the loop cable has functional earth (FE) continuity and take care that it is isolated from building earth (also known as protective earth (PE)) points such as metalwork, cable trays or junction boxes.
PLEASE NOTE:
Smoke detectors are NOT to be used with detector guards.
During construction work it is essential that the detector has it’s dust cover fi tted. The build-up of dust inside a detector can lead to a trouble signal or false alarm.

Screws not provided
For wiring, please see Fig 1, 2 & 3 i
1.5mm A/F Hex Grub Screw for use as anti-tamper / locking mechanism
XPERT 8 Card Addressing
Select the desired address and remove the pips indicated in black.
To reach maximum address range use Soteria UL Bases with XPERT 8 card, Soteria
Detector and Core Protocol Control Panel.
Further details of XPERT 8 addressing can be found in the Apollo Fire App, please refer to https://www.apollo-fire. co.uk/training-support/apollo- mobile-app
For further technical information please refer to Technical Bulletin 39215-400 Issue 1.
Wiring
CAUTION: Do not use looped wire under wiring terminals. Break wire run to provide supervision of connections. Terminals L1 and L2 are polarity sensitive. It is recommended the wiring be no smaller than 18AWG (0.8mm2). Wire sizes up to 14 AWG (3.3mm2) may be used.
Warning: Check the base compatibility before installing Check the polarity for Soteria UL detector installation
