Mounting
Each 2100TR 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 3-1/2 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.
Tamper-resistant 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
3), 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.

Before Installing
Please thoroughly read the System Sensor manual I56-407,
Guide for Proper Use of System Smoke Detectors, which provides detailed information on detector spacing, placement,
zoning, wiring, and special applications. Copies of this
manual are available at no charge from System Sensor.
NOTICE: This manual shall be left with the owner/user of
this equipment.
IMPORTANT: This detector must be tested and maintained
following NFPA 72 requirements. The detector should be
cleaned at least once a year.
General Description
Model 2100TR is a 2-wire photoelectronic smoke detector
that uses a state-of-the-art optical sensing chamber. This
detector also provides restorable, 135˚F fixed-temperature
heat detection. The 2100TR heat-detection unit is integrated
with the photoelectronic sensor. This detector is designed
to provide open area protection and to be used with compatible UL-listed panels only.
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. The conductors used to
connect smoke detectors to control panels and accessory
devices should be color-coded to reduce the likelihood of
wiring errors. Improper connections can prevent a system
from responding properly in the event of a fire.
Installation of this detector 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 for cleaning. The detector’s sensitivity
can be tested in place using the MOD400R Test Module.
The screw terminal block accepts 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
electrical interference.
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 within the listed sensitivity range, the status LED blinks every ten seconds. The
LED also latches on in alarm. If the LED stops blinking, the
unit should be removed for maintenance and inspection.
Smoke detectors and alarm system control panels have
specifications for allowable loop resistance. Consult the

Testing
NOTE: Before testing, notify the proper authorities that
the smoke detector system is undergoing maintenance and will be temporarily 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 2100TR as follows:
A. Test Switch
1. A recessed test switch is located on the detector housing (See Figure 4).
2. Press 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.
B. 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 (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.
System Sensor smoke detectors are marked with a compatible 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 ULlisted compatible control units and detectors. A copy of this
list is available from System Sensor upon request.
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.
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 1 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.
6. Reset the detector at the system control panel.
7. Notify the proper authorities the system is in operation.
Both smoke and heat detection testing are recommended
for verifying system protection capability.
A detector that fails to activate with any of the above tests
should first be cleaned as outlined in MAINTENANCE. If
the detector still fails to activate, return it for repair.
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.
Notify the proper authorities the system is back in
operation.
Maintenance
NOTE: Before removing the detector, notify the proper authorities that the smoke detector system is undergoing maintenance and will be temporarily out of
service. Disable the zone or system undergoing
maintenance to prevent unwanted alarms.
NOTE: Before removing the detector cover, note the position of the thermistors. Make sure the thermistors
are not bent over when the housing is replaced.

2. Vacuum the screen carefully without removing it.
3. Remove screen assembly, pulling straight out (please
see Figure 5).
4. Remove the sensing chamber cover.
5. Clean the sensing chamber by vacuuming or blowing
out dust and particles.
6. Replace the sensing chamber cover, aligning the arrow
on the cover top with the arrow on the printed circuit
board.
7. Replace the screen by placing the screen assembly over
the sensing chamber cover and twisting until it snaps
into place.
8. Replace the housing by aligning the three triangular
slots on the base with their counterparts on the housing. Gently press the housing until it locks in place.
Check to make sure that the thermistors are in the upright position.
9. Reinstall the detector.
10. Notify the proper authorities that the system is back in
operation.
