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 for cleaning. The detector’s sensitivity can be tested in place using the MOD400R Test
Module.
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.
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
following NFPA 72 requirements. The detector should be
cleaned at least once a year.
General Description
Model 2112/24S is a 4-wire photoelectronic smoke detector
that uses a state-of-the-art optical sensing chamber. This
detector is designed to provide open area protection. Model
2112/24TS features a restorable, built-in, fixed-temperature
(135° F) thermal detector.

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.

Smoke detectors and alarm system control panels have
specifications for allowable loop resistance. Consult the
control panel specifications for the total loop resistance allowed for the control panel being used before wiring the
detector loops.

Mounting
Each 2112/24S and 2112/24TS 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.
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 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.
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 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. 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.
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.
The screw terminal block accepts 14 – 22 gauge wire. For
best system performance, all wiring should be installed in

NOTE : Observe polarity in power and initiating loops when wiring.
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.
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.
Both smoke and heat detection testing are recommended
for verifying system protection capability.
Detectors must be tested after installation and following
periodic maintenance. Test the 2112/24S 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 (Model 2112/24TS only – Hair dryer
of 1000-1500 watts)
Direct the heat toward either of the side thermistors.
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.
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.
