INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS Intelligent Plug-In Model 5251P Fixed Temperature Sensor A Division of Pittway 3825 Ohio Avenue, St. Charles, Illinois 60174 1-800-SENSOR2, FAX: 630-377-6495 Before installing sensors, refer to NFPA 72, and 101 (Life Safety Code) for information on sensor spacing, placement, zoning, and special applications. GENERAL DESCRIPTION Model 5251P is an intelligent sensor that utilizes a state-of-the-art thermistor sensing circuit for fast response. This sensor is designed to provide open area protection with 50 foot spacing capability and is intended for use with compatible control panels only. Two LEDs on each sensor light to provide 360° visibility of the sensor indication. The LEDs can be latched ON by code command from the panel for an alarm indication. The LEDs can also be unlatched to the normal condition by code command. Remote LED annunciator capability is available as an optional accessory (Part No. RA400Z).

Bases are provided with screw terminals for power, ground, and remote annunciator connections. See Figure 1. D200-88-00 1 I56-1331-02R NOTE: All wiring must conform to applicable local codes, ordinances, and regulations. NOTE: Verify that all sensor bases are installed and that the wiring polarity is correct at each base. WARNING: Disconnect the power from the loop before installing sensors. 1. Install Sensors: a. Verify that the sensor type matches the type written on the label in the base. b. Set the sensor to a desired address and then write the address on the label on the base. c. Place the sensor into the sensor base. d. Turn the sensor clockwise until it drops into place. e. Continue turning the sensor clockwise to lock it in place. REMOTE ANNUNCIATOR + - CAUTION: Do not loop wire under terminal 1 or 2. Break wire run to provide supervision of connections. U.L.

When this capability is enabled, sensors cannot be removed from the base without the use of a small screwdriver or other similar tool. Refer to the sensor base installation instruction manual for details in using this capability. 3. After all sensors have been installed, apply power to the control unit. 4. Test the sensor by placing a small magnet against the sensor plastic, as shown in Figure 2. The alarm level should be recognized in the panel and the LED controlled by communication command from the panel. 5. The reset of the sensor LED is controlled by communication command from the panel. TESTING Sensors must be tested after installation and periodic maintenance. The sensor may be tested in the following ways. A. Test Magnet (Model No. M02-04) 1. Place the magnet against the cover in the magnet test area as shown in Figure 2 to activate the test feature. 2. The LEDs should latch ON within 10 seconds, indicating alarm and annunciating the panel. 3. Reset the detector at the system control panel. B. Test sensitivity from the control panel. C. Direct Heat Method (Hair dryer of 1000 – 1500 watts) 1. From the side of the detector, direct the heat toward the sensor. Hold the heat source about 6 inches (15cm) away to prevent damage to the cover during testing. D200-88-00 2 I56-1331-02R 2. The LEDs on the detector should light when the temperature at the detector reaches 135° F (57° C). If the LEDs fail to light, check the power to the detector and the wiring in the detector base. 3. Reset the detector at the system control panel. Detectors that fail these tests should be cleaned as described under MAINTENANCE and retested. If the detectors still fail these tests they should be returned for repair. LED PAINTED SURFACE PAINTED SURFACE TEST MAGNET LED MA TES GN T ET A78-1478-05 MAGNET TEST MARKER Figure 2.

MAINTENANCE NOTE: Before cleaning notify the proper authorities that the system is undergoing maintenance, and therefore the system will temporarily be out of service. Disable the loop or system undergoing maintenance to prevent unwanted alarms. It is recommended that the sensor be removed from its mounting base for easier cleaning and that sensors be cleaned at least once a year. Use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust from the sensing chamber.
