When a fault (trouble) condition occurs, the yellow LED will illuminate� See Figure 3-6 for the location of
the Yellow LED�

● Over temperature (>85 °C or 185 °F for the standard version)�
● Under temperature (<-40 °C or -40 °F for the standard version)�
● One or more microprocessor failures�
● One or more relay coil failures�
● Communication fault�
● Electronic self-test failure�

Maintenance

After the detector is installed and commissioned, little maintenance is required� However, a test of the
entire fire detection system should be performed periodically, depending on the application� Additionally,
semi-annual or quarterly testing should be performed with the appropriate Honeywell Analytics test lamp
(TL-1055 or TL-2055) to ensure the integrity of the system�
Establish a periodic cleaning schedule� Some industrial environments may require more frequent cleaning
of the detector's window than others�
Clean the detector's window any time it is dirty or contaminated, every time the enclosure lid is handled, if
the detector fails the built-in test, or if the detector fails an end-to-end test with the test lamp� If necessary,
clean the detector module sensors whenever the detector has been disassembled�
Use a blast of clean air or an oil-free cloth to clean the enclosure window (oil degrades the performance of
UV detectors)� Do not use commercial or silicone-based window cleaning products; they also will degrade
the detector's performance� Occassional use of a solvent such as 6% isopropyl alcohol is acceptable� No
disassembly of the detector is required for this�
WARNING
!
To avoid electrostatic discharge, wipe the enclosure only with a damp cloth�
