2. Installation Considerations
For proper installation, read and understand NFPA-72, The National Fire Alarm Code be
fore installation.
Caution:
D Do not remove the plastic film from the detector head until construction of the installation area is
finished.
D Protect the detector sensor windows from paint or contaminates. Remove the detector head during
remodelling and store it in a clean dry location.
. If you do not follow these cautions, the detector might not operate.
Detector Location and Spacing:
D BOSCH recommends spacing the sensors in compliance with NFPA-72. In low air flow applications with
smooth ceilings, space sensors with a maximum distance of 30 ft. For specific information regarding
sensor spacing, placement and special application refer to NFPA-72.
D Not suitable for outdoor use.
D Do not install in areas where the detector is pointed at
direct or indirect sunlight.
D Do not mount detector in a cone of light from a lamp.
D Maintain a hemispherical radius of at least 19 in.
(50 cm) around the detector (see Fig. 1.).
Insure that this area in front and to the sides of the
detector is kept clear of all obstructions (see Fig. 1.).
Further Considerations:
D Only use end-of-line (EOL) resistors supplied or specified by the control panel manufacturer.
D Smoke detectors are not to be used with detector guards unless the combination has been evaluated and
found suitable for that purpose.
D This detector must be installed in compliance with the control panel system installation manual.
D Install, test and maintain this device according to this installation guide, NFPA-72, Local Codes and the
Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Failure to follow these procedures may cause the device to not
function properly. Bosch Security Systems is not responsible for any devices that are improperly
installed, tested or maintained.
