Copies of this manual are available at no charge from System Sensor. Installation of these detectors is simplified by the use of a mounting bracket and a plug-in screw terminal block that can be prewired to the system, allowing the detector to be easily installed or removed. The detector’s sensitivity can be tested in place using the MOD400R Test Module. NOTICE: This manual shall be left with the owner/user of this equipment. An LED on the detector provides a local visual indication of the detector’s status. If power is applied to the detector, and it is functioning normally in standby mode within the listed sensitivity ranges, the status LED blinks once every ten seconds. The LED also provides a visual indication that maintenance is required. If the LED stops blinking, the detector is either not powered, out of the listed sensitivity range, and/or unable to function properly. The test switch will not operate if the detector is below the insensitive limit. The LED will also latch on when the detector is in alarm. IMPORTANT: This detector must be tested and maintained regularly following NFPA 72 requirements. The detector should be cleaned at least once a year. General Description Model 2100S is a 2-wire photoelectronic smoke detector that uses a state-of-the-art optical sensing chamber. This detector is designed to provide open area protection and to be used with compatible UL-listed panels only. Model 2100TS features a restorable, built-in, fixed-temperature (135°F) thermal detector.

Improper connections can prevent a system from responding properly in the event of a fire. The screw terminal block will accept 14 – 22 gauge wire. For best system performance, all wiring should be installed in separate grounded conduit; do not mix fire system wiring in the same conduit as any other electrical wiring. Twisted pair may be used to provide additional protection against extraneous electrical interference. ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; A78-2563-00 The detectors also include an output that allows an optional Model RA400Z Remote Annunciator to be connected. Wire connections are made by stripping about 1/4 inch of insulation from the end of the feed wire, inserting the wire into the appropriate terminal, and tightening the screw to secure the wire in place. Mounting Each 2100S and 2100TS detector is supplied with a mounting bracket that permits the detector to be mounted: 1. To a single gang box, or 2. Directly to a 31/2-inch or 4-inch octagonal box, or 3. To a 4 inch square electrical box by using a plaster ring. 4. Directly to the ceiling using drywall anchors, if permitted by local codes and/or the authority having jurisdiction. System Sensor smoke detectors are marked with a compatibility identifier located as the last digit of a five digit code stamped on the back of the product. Connect detectors only to compatible control units as indicated in System Sensor’s compatibility chart which contains a current list of UL listed compatible control units and detectors. A copy of this list is available from System Sensor upon request. Tamper-resistance Feature This detector includes a tamper-resistant feature that prevents its removal from the bracket without the use of a tool. To make the detector tamper-resistant, remove the smaller tab by breaking it at the scribed line on the tamper-resistant tab on the detector mounting bracket (see Figure 2), then install the detector. To remove the detector from the bracket once it has been made tamper resistant, use a small screwdriver to depress the tamper-resistant tab, located in the slot on the mounting bracket, and turn the detector counterclockwise. Installation WARNING Remove power from the control unit or initiating-device circuits before installing detectors. 1. Wire the plug-in screw terminal block per Figure 3 and plug the terminal block into the detector. 2. Align the arrows on the detector with the arrows on the mounting bracket. 3. Turn the detector clockwise in the mounting bracket until it clicks into place. 4. After all detectors have been installed, apply power to the control unit or initiating-device circuits. 5. Test the detector as described in TESTING. (See page 3.) 6. Reset the detector at the system control panel. 7. Notify the proper authorities the system is in operation. Wiring Installation Guidelines All wiring must be installed in compliance with the National Electrical Code, applicable local codes, and any special requirements of the local authority having jurisdiction. Proper wire gauges should be used.

Test Module (System Sensor Model No. MOD400R). The MOD400R test module can be used with a DMM or analog voltmeter to check the detector sensitivity as described in the test module’s manual. C. Smoke Entry Test Hold a smoldering punk stick or cotton wick at the side of the detector and gently blow smoke through the detector until the unit alarms. D. Direct Heat Method (Model 2100TS only – Hair dryer of 1000-1500 watts). Direct the heat toward either of the side thermistors. Hold the heat source about 12 inches from the detector in order to avoid damage to the plastic. The detector will reset only after it has had sufficient time to cool and the power source has been momentarily interrupted. Both smoke and heat detection testing are recommended for verifying system protection capability. CAUTION Dust covers are an effective way to limit the entry of dust into smoke detector sensing chambers. However, they may not completely prevent airborne dust particles from entering the detector. Therefore, System Sensor recommends the removal of detectors before beginning construction or other dust producing activity. Be sure to remove dust covers from any sensors that were left in place during construction as part of returning the system to service. Testing NOTE: Before testing, notify the proper authorities that the smoke detector system is undergoing maintenance and will temporarily be out of service. Disable the zone or system undergoing maintenance to prevent unwanted alarms. Detectors must be tested after installation and following periodic maintenance. Test the 2100S as follows: A. Test Switch 1. A recessed test switch is located on the detector housing (See Figure 4). 2. Push and hold the recessed test switch with a 0.18 inch maximum diameter tool such as an allen wrench or small screwdriver. 3. The detector’s LED should light within 5 seconds. A detector that fails to activate with any of the above tests should first be cleaned as outlined in the MAINTENANCE section which follows. If the detector still fails to activate, it should be returned for repair. Notify the proper authorities the system is back on line. Figure 4.

Disable the zone or system undergoing maintenance to prevent unwanted alarms. Figure 5. Removal of cover and screen for cleaning: REMOVABLE SCREEN/COVER (PART NO. C58-357-XX) 1. Remove cover by turning counter-clockwise in the direction of arrow. 2. Vacuum the cover carefully. 3. Remove the sensing chamber cover (See Figure 5). 4. Clean the sensing chamber by vacuuming or blowing out dust and particles. 5. Replace the sensing chamber cover, aligning the arrow on the top of the chamber cover with the arrow on the housing. 6. Replace the cover by placing it over the sensing cham ber cover and twisting until it snaps into place. 7. Reinstall the detector. 8. Notify the proper authorities the system is back in operation.
