Qolsys QS5517-840 IQ Heat 135 319.5MHz Heat Detector
OVERVIEW
The IQ Heat 135 wireless heat detector uses electronic processing to detect heat conditions plus a wireless transmitter (319.5MHz) in one unit. The micro- processor trips the transmitter when the temperature at the detector location reaches a fixed temperature of 135°F (57°C), or senses a rate of rise at 12°F to 15ºF (6.7 to 8.3ºC) per minute.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTION
CHOOSE INSTALLATION LOCATION
- Heat detectors should be installed to provide property protection. Reliance should not be placed on heat sensors for life safety. Where life safety is involved, smoke sensors must also be installed.
- The detectors allow for normal temperature fluctuations; however, ceiling temperatures should not exceed 100°F (37.8°C)
- Mount the detector in a central location of the area to be protected, either on the ceiling or on a wall.
- If mounting on a ceiling, the detector must be at least 4 in. (10 cm) away from any walls.
- If mounting on a wall, the top of the detector must be within 4 to 6 in. (10 to 15 cm) of the ceiling.
- The UL maximum spacing allowance of the detector is 50 x 50 ft. (15 x 15 m). Refer to the NFPA Standard 72 for application requirements.
- Do not mount the detector close to devices that change temperature rapidly, such as ovens, heat vents, furnaces, or boilers.
LEARN INTO PANEL
- Place your panel in “auto learn” mode
- “Tamper” the device
- Customize name and settings as desired and touch “ADD”

MOUNT THE DETECTOR
TEST THE DETECTOR
HEAT TEST:
- Prior to permanently mounting the sensor, plug in a portable hair dryer.
- Hold the hair dryer about 12 to 18 in. away from the sensor, aiming it at the side of the sensor.
- The panel should respond by sounding the fire alarm.
Note: Notify central station before any live testing to avoid fire response.
MAGNET TEST:
- With the sensor permanently mounted (tamper depressed), place a magnet against the mark located on the sensor body.
- Hold the magnet in place for about 15 seconds
- The panel should respond by sounding the fire alarm.
BATTERY SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE
REPLACING THE BATTERIES: Battery life depends on how often the detector transmits signals, but is more dependent on the temperature of the installation environment. When the battery voltage gets low, the detector transmits a low battery signal to the panel. The panel then activates an alert to notify the customer that the detector battery must be replaced. Replace the battery immediately when this condition occurs, using the following battery: Panasonic CR123A 3V
BATTERY DISPOSAL: The batteries used in this sensor are lithium batteries and are not reusable. Be sure to properly dispose of used lithium batteries according to your local hazardous waste disposal laws.
FCC/IC STATEMENT
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 reception, 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 connected.
- Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.
This device complies with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired operation of the device. In accordance with FCC requirements of human exposure to radiofrequency fields, the radiating element shall be installed such that a minimum separation distance of 20 cm is maintained from the general population. This Class B digital apparatus complies with Canadian ICES-3B.
