SMD-426/427 PG2

Supervised Wireless PowerG Smoke Detector /

Heat and Smoke Detector

Installation Instructions

1. INTRODUCTION

SMD-426 PG2 (photoelectric smoke detector) and SMD-427 PG2 (heat and photoelectric smoke detector) are automatic fire detectors with integral audible

signal for open area protection, designed to sense heat or smoke (not flame) and fitted with a PowerG type transceiver.

SMD-426 PG2 / SMD-427 PG2 provides early warning of developing fire by sounding an alarm with its built-in alarm horn, and by transmitting a coded

alarm signal to a PowerG receiver or to a compatible wireless alarm control panel.

SMD-427 PG2 will activate a fire alarm upon either smoke or heat condition. With two fire sensors (heat and smoke), the SMD-427 PG2 detector may shorten the

time to fire alarm activation.

It must be borne in mind, though that effective pre-warning of fire accidents is only possible if the detector is located, installed and maintained as described here.

In alarm condition, the buzzer sound can be stopped for 8 minutes (UL) and 10 minutes (EN) by

pressing the TEST/MUTE switch. It will not restore the alarm condition, but will temporarily

silence the buzzer while you correct the condition. After 8 minutes (UL) and 10 minutes (EN),

the detector restarts the alarm buzzer sound.

Note: The TEST/MUTE switch functions as TEST switch (in normal operation) or as MUTE

switch (in alarm condition).

The detector can also operate as a siren to indicate a fire alarm in other areas covered by the

alarm system, or to indicate burglar alarm events, as configured through the control panel (see the

PowerMaster Installer Guide).

The tamper switch actuator (Figures 9a and 9b) is pressed against the bracket when the unit is

attached to the bracket. Removal of the unit from the bracket causes the switch contacts to open,

creating a tamper event, which is reported by the transceiver to the alarm system control panel.

Note: When the tamper switch is opened the detector becomes not ready for operation.

2.2 Where to Install Smoke Detectors

WARNING! To comply with FCC and IC RF exposure compliance requirements, the smoke detector should be located at a distance of at least 20 cm from all

persons during normal operation. The antennas used for this product must not be co-located or operated in conjunction with any other antenna or transmitter.

Le dispositif doit être placé à une distance d'au moins 20 cm à partir detoutes les personnes au cours de son fonctionnement normal. Les

antennesutilisées pour ce produit ne doivent pas être situés ou exploitésconjointement avec une autre antenne ou transmetteur.

Smoke detectors should be installed in accordance with the NFPA Standard 74 (National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02169). For

complete coverage in residential units, smoke detectors should be installed in all rooms, halls, storage areas, basements and attics in each family living unit.

Minimum coverage is one detector on each floor and one in each sleeping area and attics in each family living unit. For maximum protection, a smoke detector

should be located outside primary sleeping areas or on each level of your home. Here are a few useful tips for you:

 Install a smoke detector in the hallway outside every separate bedroom area, as in Figure 3. Two detectors are required in homes with two bedroom areas, as in

Figure 4.

 Install a smoke detector on every floor of a multi-floor home or apartment, as shown in Figure 5.

 Install a minimum of two detectors in any household.

 Install a smoke detector inside every bedroom.

 Install smoke detectors at both ends of a bedroom hallway if the hallway is more than 12 meters (40 feet) long.

Figure 3. Locations for Placing Smoke Detectors in a Single Residence with only One Sleeping Area  Install a smoke detector inside every room where one sleeps with the door partly or completely closed, since smoke could be blocked by the closed door and a hallway alarm may not wake up the sleeper if the door is closed.

detector. See Figures 6 and 7 for recommended mounting locations.  In insect-infested areas. If insects enter a detector's sensing chamber, they may cause a false alarm. Where bugs are a problem, get rid of them before putting up a detector.  Near fluorescent lights, electrical "noise" from fluorescent lights may cause false alarms. Install smoke detectors at least 1.5 meters (5 feet) from such lights.  Smoke detection depends on the smoke density present in a room.

Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the manufacturer's instructions. Figure 9b. Battery Connection for CR17450 C Note: When the battery first makes contact, the alarm horn may sound for one second. This indicates that the battery is connected properly.

3. SMOKE DETECTOR TEST Notes: i) Insert the battery and then mount the detector on the bracket before conducting the smoke detector test. ii) After the battery is inserted, the detector enters the Local Diagnostic Test Mode for 15 minutes. iii) It is recommended to test the detector when conducting the Periodic Test using the User Code (User Diagnostic Mode) or when conducting the Periodic Test using the Installer Code (Installer Diagnostic Mode).

E. This detector, if used as a stand-alone unit, will not alert people who are hard of hearing. F. In general, detectors may not always warn you about fires caused by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in bed, violent explosions, escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, overloaded electrical circuits, children playing with matches or arson. G Smoke detectors are not fool-proof. Like all electronic devices, smoke detectors have limitations.

use the alternate exit if the door is hot and should not be opened.  Decide on a meeting place which has a safe distance from your house. Make sure that all your children understand that they should go and wait for you there if there is a fire.  Hold fire drills at least every 6 months, making sure that everyone, even small children, knows what to do to escape safely.  Know where to go to call the Fire Department outside your home.
