Installation Instructions

GENERAL INFORMATION

Before installing there detectors, make a survey of the area to be covered in accordance with information provided in NFPA 72 E, Sections 4-l through 4-6 (an overview of which is provided below). For specific applications, refer to Simplex publication “Common Code Requirements For Fire Alarm Systems” – Publication No. FA2-91-010. For
additional information, refer to NFPA 72 E and the NEMA Guide For Proper Use of System Smoke Detectors.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS

  • Is there human occupancy?
  • Contents to be protected.
  • Type of construction and use.
  • Burning characteristics of contents.
  • Air movement – stratification.
  • Deflections and obstructions.
  • Height of ceilings.
  • Surface conditions of ceilings.
  • Type of ceiling construction.
  • Total area.
  • Vent locations – velocities – dilution.

APPLICATIONS

Each detector is capable of providing from 450 to 900 square feet (42 to 84 square meters) of coverage, depending on:

  1. Requirements of local codes.
  2. Results of engineering evaluation.
  3. Physical characteristics of protected area.

Examples:
a. Smooth, flat ceiling

  • Detectors may be~spaced 30 feet (9 meters) apart.
    b. Ceiling divided by beams of more than 18 in. (46 cm) depth

  • At least one detector will be required in the space between every two beam.
    c. Ceiling divided by beams of more than 8 in. (20 cm) but less than 18 in. (46 cm) depth

  • Reduce the coverage area for each detector, and mount the detector to the bottom of the beams.

Important
Smoke must enter the chamber of the detector. Thus, air flow, air stratification, air velocity, air stagnation, and air migration will affect detector efficiency. Therefore:

  • Do not install detectors in areas where temperatures are likely to exceed 100°F (38°C) or fall below 32°F (0°C).
  • Do not install detectors on a ceiling within 4 inches (10 cm) of a wall.
  • Do not install detectors where forced air ventilation may dilute the smoke before it reaches the detector.
  • Do not install detectors in areas where smoke is normally present (kitchens, furnace rooms, laundry rooms, loading docks, rooms with fireplaces, rooms with candles, soldering rooms, etc.).
  • Do not install detectors in areas where there is likely to be steam (in hospital patient rooms with vaporizers, near shower rooms, above large sinks, etc.).
  • Do not install detectors above ashtrays in elevator lobbies.
  • Wall-mounted detectors should be located 4 to 12 inches (1 O-30.5 cm) from the ceiling to detector head.
  • Protect all detector heads during construction to avoid infiltration of construction debris!

MAINTENANCE

The minimal requirement for detector maintenance should consist of cleaning surface dust by using a vacuum cleaner. Cleaning programs should comply with NFPA and local environments. Cleaning of the internal chamber should be done by Simplex technical representative only.

TESTING
Before testing, disconnect city, release devices, and extinguish systems. Notify all appropriate personnel of test. The preferred test is with smoke using a 553-394 Extendable Smoke Generator. If this method is not acceptable or practical, a functional test can be performed by using a Test and Removal Tool. To test the detector, place the test tool around the detector body. This will alarm the detector. To clear the detector, remove the test tool and reset the fire alarm panel.

CIRCUITLIMITATIONS OF SMOKE DETECTORS

The smoke detectors used with these bases are designed to activate and initiate emergency action, but will do so only when used in conjunction with other equipment. They are designed for installation in accordance with NFPA standards 72-l 990 and 72E.
Smoke detectors will not work without power. AC or DC powered smoke detectors will not work if the power supply is cut off for any reason.
Smoke detectors will not sense fires which start when smoke does not reach the detectors. Smoke from fires in chimneys, in walls, on roofs or on the other side of closed doors may not reach the smoke detector and alarm it.
A detector may not detect a fire developing on another level of a building. For this reason, detectors should be located on every level of a building.
Smoke detectors have sensing limitations, too. Ionization detectors are better at detecting fast, flaming fires than slow, smoldering fires. Photoelectric detectors sense smoldering fires better than flaming fires. Because fires develop in different ways, and are often unpredictable in their growth, neither type of detector is always best, and a given detector may not always provide warning of a fire. In general, detectors cannot be expected to provide warning for fires resulting from inadequate fire protection practices, violent explosions, escaping gases, improper storage of flammable liquids like cleaning solvents, other safety hazards, or arson.
Smoke detectors cannot last forever. Smoke detectors contain electronic parts. Even though detectors are made to last for many years, any of these parts could fail at any time. Therefore, test your smoke detector system per NFPA 72E & 72H at least semi-annually. Clean and take care of your smoke detectors regularly.
