Data Sheet: MOD2W

i3 Series
2-Wire Loop Test/
Maintenance Module
The MOD2W maximizes the benefits of the i 3 Series
smoke detectors by enabling detector remote maintenance
signaling and EZ Walk loop testing capabilities of models
2W-B and 2WT-B.
Features
• A
llows up to twelve 2-Wire i3 detector models, 2W-B, 2WT-B
and one 2WTR-B, to be used on any listed alarm control panel
capable of utilizing this module
• Interprets the i3 detector remote maintenance signal
• P
rovides visual indication and an output relay when a detector
on the loop requires cleaning
• Initiates the EZ Walk loop test
• Provides Style D/Class A wiring on IDC loops
Installation ease: The MOD2W 2-wire loop test/maintenance
module mounts to a 4 11/16 inch square back box for quick and easy
installation. Terminal blocks with durable SEMS screws assure a
reliable connection.
Intelligence: The MOD2W allows communication to 2-wire i3
detectors with any listed fire alarm control panel capable of utilizing
this module. When these i3 detectors initiate a remote maintenance
signal for required cleaning, both the MOD2W and the panel can
provide a visual indication of the signal. The MOD2W module also
features the EZ Walk loop test for 2-wire i3 detectors. With just the
press of a button, this function verifies the entire initiating loop wiring.
Instant inspection: The MOD2W’s green, red, and yellow LEDs
provide status indication for the loop. These LEDs indicate loop
communication status, maintenance alert, alarm, freeze trouble, EZ Walk
test enabled, and wiring fault.
