4098 Detectors, Sensors, and Bases Application Manual

2 Overview
This document provides information about the correct application of both heat and smoke detectors/sensors in conjunction with fire alarm systems.
The information in this publication is intended to be used as a technical guide only. Ensure that the requirements of applicable codes and standards,
as well as the directives of Authorities Having Jurisdiction (AHJs) are followed.

2.1 Special considerations


Before installing detectors or sensors, make a survey of the area to be covered in accordance with the information provided in NFPA 72, an excerpt of
this is provided in Smoke detector and sensor applications. For additional information, refer to NFPA 72 and the NEMA Guide for Proper Use of System
Smoke Detectors.

2.1.1 Special considerations for smoke detectors and sensors


Consider the following before installing detectors or sensors:
• Is there human occupancy?
• The contents to be protected.
• The type of construction and use.
• The burning characteristics of contents.
• The air movement - stratification.
• The deflections and obstructions.
• The height of ceilings.
• The surface conditions of ceilings.
• The type of ceiling construction.
• The total area.
• The vent locations: velocities and dilution.

2.1.2 Smoke detector and sensor applications


Each detector/sensor can provide up to 900 square feet, or 84 square meters of coverage, depending on the following:
• The requirements of local codes.
• The results of engineering evaluation.

2.2 Where to place detectors and sensors

2.2.1 Correct locations for detectors and sensors


Important: The guidelines in this section are adapted from standards published by the National Fire Protection Association, Quincy, Massachusetts,
U.S.A. These standards include NFPA 72, “National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code”; NFPA 70, “National Electrical Code”, Article 760; and NFPA 90A, “Stan-
dard for the Installation of Air Conditioning and Ventilating Systems.”

To provide effective early warning of a developing fire situation, install smoke detectors or sensors in all areas of the protected premises. Total
coverage as defined by NFPA 72 includes all rooms, halls, storage areas, basements, attics, lofts, and spaces above suspended ceilings including
plenum areas utilized as part of the HVAC system. In addition, this includes all closets, elevator shafts, enclosed stairways, dumbwaiter shafts, chutes,
and other subdivisions and accessible spaces.
Fire detection systems installed to meet local codes or ordinances may not be adequate for early warning of the fire. Some codes or ordinances have
minimum objectives, such as capturing elevators, or preventing circulation of smoke through HVAC systems instead of early detection of fire.
Weigh the costs against the benefits of installing a complete fire detection system when any detection system is being installed. The location, quantity,
and zoning of detectors or sensors is determined by the objectives of the installation, rather than the minimum requirements of any local codes or
ordinances.
Detectors or sensors can be omitted from combustible blind spaces when any of the following conditions prevail:
• Where the ceiling is attached directly to the underside of the supporting beams of a combustible roof or floor deck.
• Where the concealed space is entirely filled with noncombustible insulation. In solid joist construction, the insulation need only fill the space from
the ceiling to the bottom edge of the joist of the roof or floor deck.
• Where there are small concealed spaces over rooms, provided the space does not exceed 50 square feet, or 4.6 square meters.
• In spaces formed by sets of facing studs or solid joists in walls, floors, or ceilings where the distance between the facing studs or solid joists does
not exceed 6 inches, or 15 centimeters.

page 4 574-709 Rev. AJ


4098 Detectors, Sensors, and Bases Application Manual

Detectors or sensors can also be omitted from below open grid ceilings where all of the following conditions are met:
• The openings of the grid are at least 1/4 inch, or 6 millimeters in the smallest dimension.
• The thickness of the material does not exceed the smallest of the grid openings.
• The openings constitute at least 70% of the area of the ceiling material.
Detectors or sensors are usually required or recommended underneath open loading docks or platforms and their covers, and in accessible under-
floor areas in buildings without basements. Detectors or sensors may be omitted from combustible blind spaces when all of the following conditions
prevail:
1. The space is not accessible for storage purposes, it is protected against the entrance of unauthorized persons, and it is protected against the
accumulation of windblown debris.
2. The space contains no equipment or structures, such as steam pipes, electrical wiring, ducts, shafts, or conveyors that could potentially ignite
or conduct the spread of fire.
3. The floor over the space is tight.
4. Non flammable liquids are processed, handled, or stored on the floor above the space.
“Total coverage” as described in NFPA 72, is the definition of a complete fire detection system. In some of the specified areas of coverage, such as
attics, closets, under open loading docks or platforms, a heat detector may be more appropriate than a smoke detector. Give careful consideration to
the detector manufacturer’s instructions and the following recommendations in this guide.
When only one detector/sensor is required in a room or space, install the detector or sensor as close to the center of the ceiling as possible. Central
location of the detector or sensor is best for sensing smoke or fire in any part of the room. If a center location is not possible, place it no closer than 4
inches, or 10 centimeters from the wall, or if it is listed for wall mounting, it can be mounted on the wall. Wall mounted detectors or sensor should be
located approximately 4 to 12 inches, or 10 to 30 centimeters from the ceiling to the top of the detector, and at least 4 inches, or 10 centimeters from
any corner wall junction, see Figure 1.

When an air supply or an air return duct opening is present in a room or space, install the detectors or sensors in the path of the air flow toward the
return air duct opening, see Figure 2.

Return Correct Supply Incorrect


air air

Figure 2: Detector placement - air supply or return ducts

Smoke tests help determine the correct placement of detectors and sensors. Observe the smoke travel directions and velocity, as these factors can
affect detector and sensor performance.
Placement of a detector or sensor near air conditioning or incoming air vents can cause excessive accumulations of dust and dirt on the detector or
sensor. This dirt can cause the detector or sensor to malfunction and cause nuisance alarms. Do not locate detectors or sensors closer than 3 feet, or
0.9 meters from an air supply diffuser.
Spot type detectors or sensors in correctly engineered systems, can also be installed in return air ducts, or in approved duct detector housings
designed for this application. Although duct detectors are not a substitute for open area detectors, they can provide an effective method of initiating
building control functions to prevent smoke being transported from the fire area to other parts of a building.

2.3 Where not to place detectors and sensors

2.3.1 Incorrect locations for detectors and sensors


Installing detectors or sensors in an incorrect location is a major cause of nuisance alarms. To avoid nuisance alarms do not install detectors or
sensors in environments that can cause them to malfunction. See the following table and examples:

Table 1: Environmental conditions that influence detector response*

Atm. pressure

Beam O O X X O
Air Sampling O O X X O
*See Table A-5-3.6.1.1 in NFPA 72
X = May affect detector or sensor responses
O = Generally does not affect detector or sensor responses
Do not install detectors or sensors in the following areas:
• In excessively dusty or dirty areas, such as feed rooms, steel mills, etc. Dust and dirt can accumulate on the detector or sensor’s sensing chamber
and make it overly sensitive, or block the air entrances to the sensing chamber and make the detector or sensor less sensitive to smoke. Be
especially careful to avoid areas where fumigants, fog or mist-producing materials, or sweeping and cleaning compounds are used. These
substances can cause nuisance alarms.
• Outdoors, in stables, open storage sheds, or other open structures affected by dust, air currents, or excessive humidity and temperature.
• In damp or excessively humid areas, or next to bathrooms with showers. Water droplets can accumulate inside the sensing chamber and make
the detector or sensor overly sensitive. A large amount of humid air is produced during a hot shower. The moisture in this humid air can enter the
sensing chamber as water vapor, then cool and condense into droplets causing a nuisance alarm.
• In elevator lobbies over ashtrays or where people smoke while waiting for the elevator.
• In very cold or very hot environments, or in unheated buildings or rooms where the temperature can fall below or exceed the operating
temperature range of the detector or sensor. At temperatures below 32°F, or 0°C, ice crystals or condensation can appear inside the sensing
chamber and make it overly sensitive or cause a nuisance alarm. At temperatures above the operating range of the detector or sensor greater
than 120°F, or 49°C, its internal components may not function correctly.
• In or near areas where combustion particles are normally present, such as in kitchens or other areas with ovens and burners; in garages, where
particles of combustion are present in vehicle exhausts; within 15 feet, or 4.5 meters of any type of furnace, hot water heater, or gas space heater;

page 6 574-709 Rev. AJ


4098 Detectors, Sensors, and Bases Application Manual

or in welding shops or other types of work areas where some form of combustion is used in the activity normally conducted in that area. When a
detector must be located in, or adjacent to such an area, a fixed temperature heat detector can be appropriate.
• In air streams passing by or through kitchens. Air often enters a residence or a residential unit of an apartment building through cracks around
the front or back doors. If the air return is in the bedroom hallway or in the bathroom, and if air from the kitchen easily enters the air stream going
from the door to the air return, combustion particles from cooking can cause nuisance alarms. Install detectors or sensors so that they protect
the bedrooms but are out of the air stream.
• In or near manufacturing areas, battery rooms, or other areas where substantial quantities of vapors, gases or fumes may be present. Strong
vapors, like excessive humidity, can make detectors or sensors overly sensitive or less sensitive than normal. In very large concentrations, gases
heavier than air, such as carbon dioxide, may make detectors or sensors more sensitive, while gases lighter than air, such as helium, may make
them less sensitive. Aerosol particles may collect on detector or sensor chamber surfaces and cause nuisance alarms.
• In insect-infested areas. If insects enter a detector or sensor’s sensing chamber, they can cause a nuisance alarm. Perform insect eradication
procedures before installing detectors or sensors in these locations. If spraying is part of this process, do not allow insect spray to enter the
detectors or sensors.
• Near fluorescent light fixtures. Electrical noise generated by fluorescent light fixtures may cause nuisance alarms. Install detectors or sensors at
least 1 foot, or 0.3 meters away from these light fixtures.
• When using the CO Base for CO fire detection, do not install in locations that can have potentially high non-fire levels of CO.
Underwriters Laboratories (UL) has three standards for smoke detectors:
• One for duct detectors or sensors, UL 268A.
• One for single and multiple station detectors/sensors, UL 217.
• One for system type detectors or sensors, UL 268.
Only use detectors or sensors in the applications for which they are specifically listed.
The NFPA 101 Life Safety Code states that single station smoke detectors shall sound an alarm only within an individual living unit or similar area
and shall not actuate the building fire alarm system. It also states, “All systems and components shall be approved for the purpose for which they are
installed.”
In addition to possible code noncompliance, the following deficiencies exist in a series of residential smoke detectors connected in a fire alarm system
mode:
• Because the fire alarm system is not supervised, vandals or others can disconnect a detector or the entire system, leaving a building without
protection. In this situation the residents are unaware of the serious life threatening condition.
• Residential detectors do not latch in alarm, the detector self-resets. One detector in alarm sounds all the detectors that are connected together.
In this situation, after the alarm condition is cleared, it is difficult to identify or locate a specific detector that initially put the system into alarm,.
System detectors or sensors latch in alarm. They do not reset until the power is momentarily disconnected. This makes it easier to identify the location
of the detector or sensor that caused the control panel to alarm. In addition, system detectors are specifically designed to connect to a supervised
control panel. Two-wire detectors require a UL compatibility review to verify that the detector and panel operate correctly together.
A typical life safety fire alarm system for an apartment complex uses system detectors or sensors and manual fire alarm stations in the hallways and
common areas of the complex, and residential single station type detectors and heat detectors in the individual apartments. The system detectors or
sensors, manual stations and heat detectors are connected to a supervised control panel, sound a general alarm, and automatically notify the proper
authorities that a fire condition exists. The residential detectors located in the apartments are interconnected only within the individual living quarters
of each apartment. These residential units sound an alarm only in the apartment unit.

2.4 Principles of operation

2.4.1 Introduction
This section describes how the different types of detectors and sensors work. For additional information about TrueAlarm sensor operation, refer to
the TrueAlarm Concepts publication (PER-91-024).

2.4.2 Heat detector operation


The heat detector senses the heat or the Rate-of-Rise (ROR) in the air temperature of the environment in which it is located. The heat detector is
comprised of electronic circuitry and a mechanical package that is designed to sense the ROR of the air temperature in an expedient and reliable
fashion. Upon detection of an abnormal increase in air temperature, or ROR in air temperature, the electronics indicate an alarm by increasing the
amount of current draw from the monitor zone it is connected to. The monitor zone is a supervised detection circuit that is connected to a main
control panel that takes appropriate action to indicate an alarm has been reported, if the zone current is substantially increased.
Heat detectors are an electronic design, the temperature of the air is sensed using two negative temperature coefficient thermistors. The resistance of
the thermistors goes down with an increase in temperature. One thermistor is placed in a position that senses the open air temperature very rapidly
(RT1). The second thermistor is positioned in a small cavity that protrudes out from the main body of the detector (RT2). The location of RT2 detects
a quick change in the air temperature, but for a slow or medium rate of temperature change, the detector does not signal an alarm due to the ROR
feature. For a slower change in temperature, the detector signals an alarm due to a set fixed temperature that is sensed by RT1. For a fast temperature
rise, when a difference in temperature is sensed by RT1 and RT2 has reached a predetermined amount, the detector signals an alarm.

4098 Detectors, Sensors, and Bases Application Manual

2.4.3 Photoelectric smoke detectors or sensors


These devices operate on a light scattering principle. The smoke sensing chamber contains an infrared LED source with a peak spectral emission of
880 nanometers. This source is placed at an angle from a spectrally matched photo-diode receiver. During a NO SMOKE condition, only light reflected
from the chamber walls enters the receiver and shows up as a small photo-current. As smoke particles enter the sensing chamber and cross the
light beam of the LED, more light reaches the receiver due to scattering. The receiver circuitry converts this photo-current into a signal voltage. In
a detector, when this voltage reaches a preset level, an alarm is signaled. In a sensor, this signal voltage goes into an 8-bit, analog to digital (A to D)
converter. A digital representation of this signal voltage is then transmitted to the fire alarm panel for further processing.

2.4.4 Ionization smoke detectors or sensors


These devices use a small radiation source, Americium-241, which emits alpha particles that ionize air molecules between two electrically charged
electrodes. With the application of a DC voltage to these electrodes, a small ionization current flows within the chamber. As smoke enters the chamber,
a decrease in ionization current results. This current is converted into a signal voltage by a transimpedance circuit. In a detector, when this signal
voltage drops below a preset level, an alarm is produced. In a sensor, this signal voltage goes into an 8-bit A to D converter. A digital representation of
this signal voltage is then transmitted to the fire alarm panel for further processing.

2.4.5 Carbon monoxide gas detectors or sensors


The CO Sensor and Sounder Bases with a CO Replacement Cartridge (CORC) modules work in conjunction with existing detector heads. The CO Sensor
Base enhances fire detection and combines fire and toxic gas leakage detection in a single device. The CO sensor measures the concentration of
carbon monoxide gas in the air in part per million (PPM). When toxic gas operation is selected, the FACP panel can generate either a supervisory, utility,
or priority 2 alarm. The alarm level is calculated within the panel based on the time integrated CO levels that are measured at the detector.

3 4098 Smoke Detectors, Heat Detectors and Bases


This chapter contains specification and mounting information for 4098 Smoke Detectors, 4098 Heat Detectors, and 4098 Bases.

3.1 4098 Smoke Detectors


CAUTION: Install the detectors described in this publication in accordance with applicable NFPA standards, local codes, and the Authorities Hav-
ing Jurisdiction (AHJs). Failure to follow these instructions may result in failure of the detector to initiate an alarm condition. The manufacturer is not
responsible for detectors that have been improperly installed, tested, or maintained.

3.1.1 Smoke detector limitations


The smoke detectors used with these bases are designed to activate and initiate emergency action, but do so only when used in conjunction with
other equipment. They are designed for installation in accordance with NFPA 72 National Fire Alarm and Signaling Code.
• Smoke detectors do not work without power. AC or DC powered smoke detectors do not work if the power supply is cut off for any reason.
• Smoke detectors do not sense fires 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, locate detectors on every level of a building.
• Smoke detectors have sensing limitations. 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 do not provide warning
for fires resulting from inadequate fire protection practices, violent explosions, escaping gases, incorrect storage of flammable liquids such as
cleaning solvents, other safety hazards, or arson.
• Smoke detectors do not last forever. Smoke detectors contain electronic parts. Even though detectors are made to last for many years, any
of these parts can fail at any time. Therefore, test smoke detector systems according to NFPA 72 at least annually. Clean and maintain smoke
detectors regularly. See the Compatibility and testing section of this publication for the cleaning instructions.

3.1.3 Mounting requirements


All smoke detectors identified in Table 2 mount to a detector base, refer to of this chapter for more information. Use the following considerations
when mounting smoke detectors.
Important: Smoke must enter the chamber of the detector. Air flow, air stratification, air velocity, air stagnation, and air migration affects detector effi-
ciency.

Note: Where the possibility of positive airflow from the electrical conduit or junction box exists, use 3M Weatherban number 606, or an equivalent,
non-flammable sealing compound to seal the conduit openings.

• Do not install detectors in areas where temperatures are likely to exceed 100°F or 38°C or fall below 32°F, or 0°C.
• Because the 4098-9602 detector combines heat sensing, DO NOT install this detector in locations where the ambient temperatures exceed 100°F,
or 38°C or where temperature fluctuations above 6°F per minute occur.
• Do not install detectors on a ceiling within 4 inches, or 10 centimeters of a wall.
• Do not install detectors where forced air ventilation can dilute the smoke before it reaches the detector.
• Do not install detectors in areas where smoke is normally present, such as kitchens, furnace rooms, laundry rooms, loading docks, rooms with

page 9 574-709 Rev. AJ


4098 Detectors, Sensors, and Bases Application Manual

fireplaces, rooms with candles, soldering rooms, and so on.


• Do not install detectors in areas where there is likely to be steam, such as in hospital patient rooms with vaporizers, near shower rooms, above
large sinks, and so on.
• Do not install detectors above ashtrays in elevator lobbies.
• Wall-mounted detectors should be located 4 to 12 inches, or 10 to 30.5 centimeters from the ceiling to the detector head.
• Protect all detector heads during construction to avoid infiltration of construction debris. Remove any protective covers before activating the
system.
• If using an adapter plate, tighten the mounting screws without warping the adapter plate.

3.2 4098 Heat Detectors


This section contains general notes, specifications, and mounting information about the heat detectors in Specifications.
Warning: Heat detectors are NOT life-safety devices: USE HEAT DETECTORS FOR PROPERTY PROTECTION ONLY! For life-safety requirements, use
smoke detectors.

Note:
• For all heat detectors, provide electronic supervision with a battery back-up at the fire alarm control panel.
• Where the possibility of positive airflow from the electrical conduit or junction box exists, use 3M Weatherban number 606, or an equivalent, non-
flammable sealing compound to seal the conduit openings.
• Refer to NFPA 72 for application, test and maintenance requirements.

3.2.1 Heat detector types


Fixed temperature heat detectors
Electronic fixed temperature heat detectors use a fast response, thermistor based design that senses temperatures quickly and accurately, and con-
sistently identifies when fixed temperatures are exceeded. For this reason, the fixed temperature detectors are recommended for most applications.
With a UL spacing distance of 60 X 60 foot, the fixed temperature electronic heat detectors replace both the mechanical fixed and the mechanical ROR
heat detectors.
ROR temperature heat detectors
Electronic ROR heat detectors detect fixed temperature alarm thresholds in the same way as the fixed temperature heat detectors, and also detect a
ROR alarm with a patented ROR detection design that quickly responds to sudden temperature variations. Due to the nature of the fast response to
temperature changes, the correct installation of ROR heat detectors is important. Install ROR heat detectors in stable environmentally controlled areas.
Do not install these detectors where hot or cold air can be blown on them, such as near ductwork, industrial equipment, air vents, and so on. Do not
install ROR detectors where more than 6ºF per minute temperature changes can normally occur.

4 TrueAlarm Sensors, Sensor Bases, and QuickConnect Smoke Sensors


4.1 Introduction
This chapter contains general notes, specifications, and mounting information about the TrueAlarm Sensors, Sensor Bases and QuickConnect Smoke
Sensors.

Warning:
Ensure that the location of each smoke sensor and each heat sensor has been planned according to local and national fire codes, see NFPA 72.

Smoke sensor sensitivities are set and continuously monitored by the control panel. This functionality complies with NFPA 72. When functional testing
of these sensors is required in accordance with NFPA 72, use the test methods described in Compatibility and testing.
Refer to NFPA 72 for application, test and maintenance requirements.
The 4098-9733, 4098-9734, and 4098-9778 heat sensor, and the 4098-9754 and 4098-9779 multi-sensor provide a ROR function that is software
programmed and selectable at 15°F, or 8.3°C, and 20°F, or 11.1°C per minute. The 4098-9733, 4098-9754, 4098-9778 and 4098-9779 also provide

Switches set the sounder base address. DIP Switch Position 9 is set to OFF or ON depending on the sounder base power source. When the sounder
base is connected to a 24 VDC power source, DIP Switch Position 9 is set to “OFF” and the 24 VDC power is supervised by the sounder base. When the

page 23 574-709 Rev. AJ


4098 Detectors, Sensors, and Bases Application Manual

sounder base is powered by the panel’s Notification Appliance Circuit (NAC), DIP Switch Position 9 is set to “ON” and the power is supervised by the
NAC and not the sounder base. The 4098-9770 and 4098-9797 bases have the same layout, but do not have sounder functionality. They use an 8-way
DIP switch only.

4.4.3 Address setting for the 2120 CDT System


1. Using the 2120 Job Configuration Report, find the entry for the sensor base, 4098-9775, 4098-9776, 4098-9792 and 4098-9789 only, you are
installing. The CUSTOM LABEL column indicates the location while the DEVICE ADDRESS column indicates the switch setting data.
2. Using the switch setting data for the base you are installing, set the address of the base. See Setting the address of the base for the location
of the switches. Use a non-metallic stylus, or the equivalent, to set the switches.
3. Double-check the location and address of the sensor base before proceeding to the electrical installation, see Figure 3.

4.4.4 Setting the Sensor Base Device Address


1. Using the Programmer’s Report, find the entry for the sensor base you are installing. The device ADDRESS and CUSTOM LABEL are located
in the SYSTEM POINT SUMMARY under “M”. For example, Address M1-7, is circled in Figure 13. M1 is the addressable channel and '-7' is the
device address on the channel. For a base with Address M1-7, ensure Address 7 is set on the base’s DIP Switches (SW1).
2. Using the example given in Step 1 as guideline, set the address on the base using the information in Figure 14. See Setting the address of
the base for the location of the DIP Switches. Use a non-metallic stylus, or the equivalent, to set the switches.
3. Mark an address label with the appropriate address for the base by shading a label box for each base DIP Switch in the ON position. Apply
the label near the DIP Switch on the base.
4. Double-check the location and address of the sensor base before proceeding to electrical installation.

Figure 14: MAPNET/IDNet addresses

4.4.5 Address setting for sounder bases and Multi-Sensor Bases 4098-9795 and 4098-9796
The 4098-9795 and 4098-9796 Multi-Sensor Bases are only for use with the 4098-9754 and 4098-9779 multi-sensor and are not compatible with the
2120 CDT.
Both bases have remote LED output and the 4098-9795 also has an integrated sounder similar to the 4098-9794 Sounder Base. The 4098-9795 and
4098-9796 Multi-Sensor Bases must be used with the 4098-9754 or 4098-9779 multi-sensor when connected to a 4010, 4020, 4100+, 4008, or 4120
system.
When connected to a 4100U, 4100ES, a 4010ES, or a 4007ES, the 4098-9754 and 4098-9779 multi-sensor can be used with the 4098-9770,
4098-9771, 4098-9772, 4098-9773, 4098-9775, 4098-9776, 4098-9777, 4098-9780, 4098-9789, 4098-9791, 4098-9792, 4098-9793, 4098-9794,
4098-9797, and 4098-9798 bases.
The Multi-Sensor Base answers to two addresses, therefore the DIP Switch must be set for even addresses only. The even address is a photo sensor/
sounder base (4098-9795) or a photo sensor/standard base (4098-9796), and the odd address (DIP Switch + 1) is a heat sensor/standard base. The
figure shows the permitted addresses for the Multi-Sensor Bases.

Important: Switch Position 1 is not used and must always be OFF (0) for the Multi-Sensor Bases to function properly. The odd address immediately
after the DIP Switch setting must not be used by any other sensor base or MAPNET/IDNet device.

Note: A Sounder Base with a 9-pin DIP switch can use a single odd or even address when a 4098-9754 and 4098-9779 base is not required.

programs comply with the NFPA and local environments. Ensure that cleaning of the internal chamber is only done by a qualified technical
representative.
For service, return to your local branch office.

page 36 574-709 Rev. AJ


4098 Detectors, Sensors, and Bases Application Manual

6.3.2 Testing
Smoke sensor sensitivities are set and continuously monitored by the control unit. Dirty or out-of-range sensors are annunciated by the control unit.
This functionality complies with NFPA 72.

Note: When testing detectors or sensors, refer to NFPA 72, or contact your local branch office.

CAUTION: Before functionally testing the detectors or sensors, be sure to disconnect the city connection, releasing devices, and extinguishing sys-
tems. For the 4120, 4006, 4008, 4020, 4010, 4100+, 4100U, 4100ES, 4010ES, or 4007ES panel, put the panel in the Walk Test mode.

6.3.3 Preferred method of testing smoke detectors or sensors


NFPA minimally requires annual functional testing of smoke detectors or sensors at their installed location. To perform this annual test, use the Solo
336 Aerosol Smoke Dispenser.
Important: After testing detectors, reset the fire alarm panel to restore the fire alarm system to a normal status. After testing sensors, ensure you
clear the peak values.

6.3.5 Alternate method for testing sensors


The following test method is suitable for functional checks of sensor bases or QuickConnect sensors during installation, however, testing with smoke
must be performed to comply with NFPA requirements.
For all sensor bases, position the 553-810 Magnet Tester ½ inch to ¾ inch, or 12 millimeters to 20 millimeters counterclockwise from the visible LED on
the sensor base, see the following figure.
For the 4098-9757 QuickConnect2 Photo Sensor, position the 553-810 Magnet Tester as shown in .
For MAPNET II devices, testing a sensor using a magnet reports a value of 255 for actual/peak. This does not occur for IDNet devices. Clear the peak
value after testing.

Note: For the 4098-9795 and 4098-9796 Multi-Sensor Bases both the photo and heat address, even and odd, must alarm.

6.3.6 Magnetic Test for photoelectric detectors


Test the 4098 Photoelectric Detectors by placing a magnet above the location indicated by a “|” mark embossed on the cover for 4 seconds. Use the
Magnetic Tester, Part No. 553-810, Table 15, and the following information to test the detectors.
Table 15 describes the LED reaction during Normal and MAG TEST modes to the Normal,
More Sensitive, Less Sensitive, and Non-Functional states of the detector.

LED flashes every 4 LED Flashes Quickly LED Flashes Latches in Alarm
secs. 6 Times Slowly 4 Times Mode/LED stays “ON”
Normal X X
More Sensitive X X X
Less Sensitive X X X
Non-Functional X
When placing the magnet at the location indicated by a “|” mark embossed on the cover, the visible LED flashes indicating the condition of the
detector.
The following are descriptions of the detector when it is in MAG TEST:
• NORMAL - When in MAG TEST, the detector latches into alarm if the detector is within calibration range and the visible LED stays ON.
• MORE SENSITIVE - When in MAG TEST, if the detector is more sensitive than the maximum calibration, the visible LED quickly flashes, twice a
second. Following the sixth flash, the detector latches into alarm and the visible LED stays ON.
• LESS SENSITIVE - When in MAG TEST, if the detector is less sensitive than the minimum calibration, the visible LED slowly flashes four times, once
every two seconds. Following the fourth flash, the detector latches into alarm and the visible LED stays ON.
• NON-FUNCTIONAL DETECTOR - If the detector is less sensitive than the minimum permitted sensitivity, or if there is a fault in the temperature
sensing circuit (4098-9602), the visible LED does not flash normally. When in MAG TEST, the visible LED slowly flashes four times, once every two
seconds. After the fourth flash, the detector does NOT latch into alarm, the LED stops flashing and turns OFF.
If the detector is outside the normal operating range, clean it. If after cleaning the detector still indicates an abnormal sensitivity, replace the detector.

4098 Detectors, Sensors, and Bases Application Manual

6.3.7 Magnetic Test for ionization detectors


Test the 4098 Ionization Detectors using a magnet to verify that the Fire Alarm Control Panel is operating correctly.

Note: When ionization detectors alarm, the red LED indicator activates and latches into the ON position.

Place a magnet against the detector’s side, over the location marked by a “|” on the head of the ionization detector. Hold the magnet for ten seconds
to activate an internal reed switch. Use the Magnet Tester, Part No. 553-810.

6.3.8 Ion detector sensitivity test


Plug the 553-832 Ion Detector Test Cable into the sensitivity voltage pins located on the Ion Detector Head. Complete the following steps to test the
sensitivity of the ion detector:
1. Connect a 10 MV digital voltmeter to the 553-832 test cable. Connect the negative terminal of the voltmeter to the red wire of the test cable,
and connect the positive terminal of the voltmeter to the white wire of the test cable. The black wire of the 553-832 test cable is not used.
2. Ensure the voltage measured by the voltmeter is between 0.2 and 0.8 volts. Clean or replace detectors that output a voltage outside this
range.
3. If the Ion Detector voltage output is outside the range, remove and clean it as described in the cleaning section. Re-check the voltage
measurement on the Ion Detector, if it is still outside the voltage range after cleaning, replace the device.

6.3.9 Maintenance of the CO Sensor


The CO Sensor is not as susceptible to dirt as the photo or ion sensors, and does not compensate for a loss of sensitivity over the period of its lifetime.
The following two operations to inform a qualified or trained service person that a CO sensor has reached its end of life:
• The FACP panel generates an End of Life trouble notifying the user that a replacement sensor is required.
• Manual standard maintenance testing by a qualified or trained service person checks that the device is fully operational.

6.3.10 End of life service


The end of life of a CO Sensor is based on the manufacture date of the device, not the installation date.The FACP panel daily checks each IDNet CO
combination sensor for the End of Life trouble expiration date.The FACP panel generates the following status report based on the condition of the CO
Sensor:
• None: the CO Sensor has not reached the expiration date.
• Almost Expired 6M: the CO Sensor is within 6 months of the expiration date.
• Almost Expired 12M: the CO Sensor is within 12 months of the expiration date.
• Expired (End of Life): the CO Sensor’s date has expired.
To clear the trouble at the panel:
1. Install a new CRS with a valid date.
2. Perform a hardware reset of the FACP.

Note: For the panel to annunciate these warnings, enable the logging of the Almost Expired trouble, with the exception being the Expired trouble
condition which does not require any activation.

The TrueAlarm CO report can also be used to list all End of Life dates of CO sensors in the panel. The report is a quick and easy way to check if any
sensors will expire before the next visit to the site.

6.3.11 Standard maintenance


To verify that the sensors are operating correctly, standard maintenance of the CO sensors is required. The standard maintenance process is as
follows:
1. The FACP panel is put into the service test mode using either the diagnostic function menu item on the front panel or the system diagnostic
computer port command.
2. A trouble displays at the panel indicating that the panel is in the Device Test Mode.
3. A tester introduces CO gas, heat and smoke simultaneously into the detector.
4. The device LED on the base turns ON steady if any, but not all of the sensors on the device cross an alarm threshold.
5. The device LED on the base flashes slowly if all of the sensors cross an alarm threshold.
6. The appropriate action based on the point type of the CO sensor is taken at the panel.
7. Device Test Mode shall is entered if a faster response time is needed during Walktest.

Note: There is a 20 device LED maximum that can be ON/Flashed at any given time. This limit applies during testing, and during alarm operation.
Reset the panel before this limit is reached during testing so that the LED can be used as an indication of a successful test.

6.3.13 Cleaning
Introduction
If the sensitivity of the device does not match what is marked on the device’s label, clean the device using a source of oil-free, filtered, compressed air
such as Dust-Off, or Tech Duster, and so on.

CAUTION: Notify the appropriate building personnel prior to removing any detectors or sensors from service.

6.3.13.1 Photoelectric smoke detector or sensor cleaning


Blow the compressed air through the open vents around the device so that air enters and cleans the black chamber cover and insect screen assembly,
Part No. 677-224, located under the white protective cover.
If the sensitivity of the device does not match what is marked on the device’s label after cleaning, replace the device.

6.3.13.2 Special considerations for ion detectors and sensors


Note: Do not remove the protective cover on the Ion Detector or Sensor.

Blow compressed air through the open vents around the device so that air enters and cleans the black chamber cover assembly located under the
white protective cover. If the device sensitivity is still outside the marked range replace the device and return the failed device to 130 Perinton Parkway,
Fairport, NY 1 4450-9199.

Important: After cleaning, test the detector or sensor with smoke per NFPA 72.

6.3.14 Trouble indications

6.3.14.1 Trouble indications for TrueAlarm sensors


The TrueAlarm smoke sensor is a measuring device that sends data regarding smoke density to the 2120, 4008, 4010, 4020, 4100, 4100+, 4100U,
4100ES, 4010ES, and 4007ES FACPs. The TrueAlarm heat sensor operation is similar, but sends temperature data instead of smoke density data. The
FACP uses this data to determine whether a trouble has occurred.
The TrueAlarm sensor has two automatic trouble indications:
• Dirty
• Excessively Dirty
A “Smoke Sensor Dirty” trouble condition is reported when the average value on an individual sensor reaches a set threshold value. At this time, the
FACP is still compensating for environmental factors and is holding the set sensitivity level.
A “Smoke Sensor is Excessively Dirty” trouble condition is reported when the average value of an individual sensor reaches a slightly higher set
threshold level. At this point, the FACP no longer compensates for environmental factors, and the sensitivity level drifts. Although an “Excessively Dirty”
trouble is reported, the sensor continues to operate and reports an alarm condition when one is detected.
In addition to the two automatic trouble conditions, the FACPs have digital pseudo points that must be turned ON so that a TrueAlarm sensor that
is close to being a dirty sensor reports as if it is “almost dirty”. This is useful when scheduling maintenance for dirty sensors, it provides a means of
checking if other sensors are approaching a dirty state.
The following table shows appropriate action to take when certain trouble indications occur:

Table 16: TrueAlarm troubles and descriptions

Trouble Indication Description


Using the front panel keys, it is possible for a technical representative to turn ON a digital pseudo point
in the FACP so that an “almost dirty” sensor to reports a trouble. Although the “almost dirty” sensor is
Almost Dirty
holding its sensitivity level, you can schedule maintenance for the sensor before the dirty sensor trouble
occurs.
A “dirty” indication means that the sensor is holding its sensitivity level, schedule maintenance for the
Dirty
sensor. Clean the sensor as required and, when necessary, call your local branch office for service.
The “excessively dirty” indication means that the sensor is no longer compensating for dirt and dust.
Excessively Dirty Because nuisance alarms are possible with this condition, clean or replace the sensors immediately.
When necessary, call your local branch office for service.
All FACP system sensors are automatically tested once every minute. When a sensor fails to report
Self-Test Abnormal properly to the FACP, a “Self-Test Abnormal” condition occurs. Because the sensor is not working properly,
it must be replaced. Replace it, or call your local branch office for service.
The FACP panel generates an Expired trouble to notify the user that a replacement sensor is required. To
Expired
clear the trouble, install a new CORC with a valid date must, and perform a hardware reset of the FACP.
