ARCHITECT AND ENGINEER SPECIFICATIONS
Product Overview
The Siemens ─ Fire Safety Model ‘FDBZ’-series of air-
duct-detector housings are designed to be used with
the Siemens Model ‘H’-series, ‘FD’-series and the Model
OP121 detectors. Designed for installation directly to
heating, ventilating and air-conditioning (HVAC) duct
systems, the Model ‘FDBZ’-series complies with National
Fire Protection Association Standard (NFPA) No.’s 72
and 90A, and is Underwriters’ Laboratories Listed.
When equipped, the air-duct detector housing will
signal the presence of smoke being carried through the
duct system. Air-duct detectors are not intended to be
substituted for open-area detection.
Notes: Most conventional time-control equipment
guarantee only one (1) detector per zone when the
detector’s operated relay function is critical.
The connection of a remote lamp and a remote relay
−per detector − is allowed.
Refer to the installation manual for the respective
conventional fire system.
Notes − (cont.’d): With either the D esigo
®
series or
FireFinder
®
XLS series of FACPs, up to 252-addressable
detectors with relays per circuit may be used. The connection
of an intelligent remote lamp (
ILED) and a remote relay is
allowed for each detector simultaneously.
Specifications
The Model ‘FDBZ’-series of air-duct housings are uniquely
designed to use with the photoelectric detector.
Sensitivity of Models PE-11C and OP121 detectors can be
verified for calibration via LED visual status or a Model
RSAW-11, Model RSAC-11 or Model FDBZ-RTL multi-color
remote lamp. A green flash indicates the detector has
passed its self test. Amber indicates a Trouble condition,
and red indicates an Alarm event.
Sensitivity range for Models HFP-11, FP-11, SFP-11, HFPO-
11, SFPO-11, FDO421, FDOOT441 and FDOOTC441is is
verified from the multi-color LED of the respective detector,
or its sensitivity reading may be printed by command from
the corresponding FACP to an optional printer.
