7. Install Heat Sensors
DESCRIPTION
The ISEC-HEAT is a high-quality 135°F (57°C) fixed
temperature detector with Rate of Rise. It is compatible with
the NAPCO iSecure-series supervised security system.
The ISEC-HEAT incorporates circuitry which will transmit
an alarm signal upon an alarm condition, generate an hourly
supervisory test signal to the receiver and also monitor and
annunciate low battery.
Coding switches are not required or used in the ISEC-
HEAT. Each transmitter is assigned a unique identification
code number at the factory. The transmitter is powered by
one 3V Lithium battery (supplied) which can power the unit for
up to two years. If the battery voltage drops below normal, a
low-battery report will be sent to the receiver with any status or
alarm transmission. If a low-battery condition is indicated,
replace the battery.
WARNING: NOT A LIFE SAFETY DEVICE - USE FOR PROPERTY PROTECTION ONLY
Step 1. Remove the mounting base.
Lift the ISEC-HEAT from the base by turning the top of the heat
detector counter-clockwise while holding the base stationary.
Step 4. Mounting the base to the ceiling
Select mounting location for detector on ceiling; maximum spacing
(10ft ceiling) is 50-feet x 50-feet*. Do not locate in direct path of hot
or cold air flow. Mark holes using the accompanying mounting tem-
plate. Use the two screws and anchors provided to attach the
mounting plate to the wall or ceiling.
NOTE: The mounting plate may be attached to a plastic single-
gang electrical outlet box. Do not attach to metallic outlet boxes.
*Refer to NFPA 72 guidelines for spacing
reductions when the ceiling height ex-
ceeds 10 feet.
Step 3. Install the battery
Observing polarity, install the supplied battery as shown.
NOTE: A Tamper zone trouble will result when the batteries are re-
placed. Replace battery with a 3V Duracell DL123A, Varta/Power-
One CR123A or Panasonic CR123A only. Use of another battery
may present a risk of fire or explosion.
CAUTION: Risk of Fire, explosion and burns. Do not recharge,
disassemble, heat above 100°C., or incinerate. Dispose of used
batteries promptly. Keep away
from children.
Step 2. Locate the RF ID#
Locate the RF ID# on the rear of the unit. NOTE: The RF ID# on
the label must be accurately recorded in order to map the
transmitter into the system (see Step 7).
NOTE: RF ID# is
located on the label
placed on the rear
of the unit
OPERATION
Rate-of-Rise Feature: A temperature increase of 15°F
or more per minute will result in an alarm transmission. When
the rate-of-rise element alone has been activated, the detector
is self-restoring.
Fixed Temperature: If the temperature of the center
disk rises to the detector’s rated temperature (135°F / 57°C)
an alarm transmission will result. When actuated by the fixed
temperature element, the detector is non-restorable and must
be replaced. The need for replacement is indicated when the
center disk has fallen free; order System Sensor model 5601P
to replace detector.
When the ISEC-HEAT detects an alarm as described
above, the integral transmitter will send an alarm signal to the
receiver. The alarm signal will be repeated every 10 seconds
thereafter as long as the alarm condition is present. A restore
report will be sent when the condition clears.
