Description

The ASD-200 detector occupies one position on the list of wireless devices.

Radio communication
The detector connects to the controller / control panel at regular time intervals to provide information about its state (periodical communication). Additional communication takes place in the case of alarm (smoke / high temperature is sensed by the detector) or tamper (tamper switch has been opened) and after restore of alarm (smoke / high temperature is sensed no more by the detector) or tamper (tamper switch has been closed).

Fire alarm

Smoke detection
An optical method is used for the detection of visible smoke. When the concentration of smoke in the optical chamber exceeds a given threshold, an alarm is triggered. The smoke sensor operating parameters are modified depending on the temperature changes recorded by the heat sensor (thermistor). The detector automatically compensates for gradual changes in the optical chamber caused by deposition of dust.

Temperature detection
The temperature exceeding 54°C or a too fast temperature rise (see table 1) will trigger an alarm.

Air temperature rise velocity| Lower limit of response time| Upper limit of response time
---|---|---
1°C/min| 29 min| 40 min 20 s
3°C/min| 7 min 13 s| 13 min 40 s
5°C/min| 4 min 9 s| 8 min 20 s
10°C/min| 1 min| 4 min 20 s
20°C/min| 30 s| 2 min 20 s
30°C/min| 20 s| 1 min 40 s

Table 1. Response time limits for the heat sensor.

Fire alarm signaling
The alarm is indicated visually (LED indicator ON) and acoustically (continuous sound) for 5 minutes. Pressing the test / reset button (Fig. 1) during the alarm will clear the alarm condition.

Operating modes
You can select the operating mode when configuring the ASD-200 detector settings (see the controller / control panel manual):

Smoke and temperature detection – smoke and temperature sensors are enabled.
Smoke detection only – only smoke sensor is enabled.
Temperature detection only – only temperature sensor is enabled.

Detector test
If you want to test operation of the detector, press the test / reset button (Fig. 1). A short sound will be heard. After a few seconds, the fire alarm should be triggered.

Tamper
Opening the enclosure (opening the tamper switch) is treated as tamper.

Test mode
The test mode makes diagnostics of the detector easier, because the detector LED indicator indicates periodical communication and alarm memory. How to start and end the test mode is described in the ABAX 2 / ABAX controller manual / the INTEGRA 128-WRL control panel manual.

The alarm memory is cleared after ending the test mode.

LED indicator

LED indicator indicates:

low battery – 3 short flashes every 30 seconds,
alarm – ON for 5 minutes.

When the ABAX 2 / ABAX system is running in the test mode, the LED indicator indicates additionally:

periodical communication – short flash (80 milliseconds), and when the chamber is soiled 2 short flashes,
memory of alarm triggered by smoke sensor – flashing rapidly,
memory of alarm triggered by heat sensor – flashing slowly.

Energy saving mode (ECO)
If you want to prolong the battery life, you can enable in the detector the ECO option.
When the ECO option is enabled, the periodical communication takes place every 3 minutes.
Thus the battery life can be increased as much as fourfold. The option is only available in the ABAX 2 system.

Detection of optical chamber soiling
The detector is monitoring the state of the optical chamber. Deposition of dust in it may lead to malfunctioning of the device. When the optical chamber requires cleaning, it is indicated by the LED indicator.

Battery status control
When the battery voltage is lower than 2.75 V, the detector indicates low battery: 3 short flashes of the LED indicator and 3 short beeps every 30 seconds. The low battery info is sent during each transmission to the controller / control panel.

Selecting a mounting location

The detector is designed for indoor installation.
The detector should be installed in location close to the building / apartment exit (e.g. in the hall, lobby etc. – Fig. A and B)
In the typical home or office applications, the detector should be installed on the ceiling, as close as possible to the center of the room.
Do not install the detector in places with high concentration of dust and/or formation and condensation of water steam.
Do not install the detector near heaters, cookers, fans or air-conditioner outlets.
Do not install the detector in places where there is no unobstructed movement of air (e.g. in recesses, niches, etc.).
It is not advisable to install it in close vicinity of electrical systems, because it can adversely affect the range of radio signal.

Installation

The detector enclosure can not be closed without the battery inserted.

Do not install the battery if the sounder is disconnected.

There is a danger of battery explosion when using a different battery than recommended by the manufacturer, or handling the battery improperly. Do not crush the battery, cut it or expose it to high temperatures (throw it into the fire, put it in the oven, etc.).

Do not expose the battery to very low pressure due to the risk of battery explosion or leakage of flammable liquid or gas.

Be particularly careful during installation and replacement of the battery.
The manufacturer is not liable for the consequences of incorrect installation of the battery.

Remove the plastic dust cap.
Turn the cover counter-clockwise (Fig. 2) and remove it (Fig. 3).
Install the battery.
Add the detector to the wireless system (see the ABAX 2 / ABAX controller manual or the INTEGRA 128-WRL control panel installer manual). The sticker with serial number which shall be entered when registering the detector in the system can be found on the enclosure base.
In the INTEGRA / VERSA alarm system, the detector is identified as ASD-110.
Simultaneous operation of the detector by the ABAX 2 and ABAX controller / INTEGRA 128-WRL alarm control panel is not possible.
Select the operating mode of the detector (see the ABAX 2 / ABAX controller manual or the INTEGRA 128-WRL control panel installer manual).
Replace the cover.
Put the detector at the place of its future installation.
Check the level of signal received from the detector by the ABAX 2 / ABAX controller or the INTEGRA 128-WRL control panel. If the signal level is lower than 40%, select another place for installation. Sometimes, it is sufficient to shift the device ten or twenty centimeters. You can also try to turn the enclosure to check if it improves the signal strength.
The ARF-200 tester makes it possible to check the radio signal strength at the place of future installation without having to put the detector there.
Remove the detector cover.
If the detector is to be mounted on the ceiling using a double-sided mounting tape:
- stick the tape to the enclosure base (Fig. 4).
- stick the enclosure base to the ceiling.
If the detector is to be mounted on the ceiling with screws:
- place the enclosure base against the ceiling and mark the location of the mounting holes (Fig. 5).
- drill the holes in the ceiling for wall plugs (anchors). The wall plugs provided with the detector are intended for concrete or brick. For other types of surface (drywall, styrofoam), use other appropriately selected wall plugs.
- secure the enclosure base to the ceiling with screws.
Replace the detector cover and lock it with a screw. The screw is provided in a bag together with the wall plugs and screws for mounting.
Press the test / reset button (Fig. 1). Fire alarm should be triggered.
Press again the test / reset button to clear the alarm.
If in the premises where the detector is installed, any work is being carried out that may cause dirt to build up in the optical chamber, put a plastic dust cover on the detector. Remove it after the work is finished.
