gram it for 24-Hour Protection. The Tamper Zone will super-
vise the cold-water pipe ground, door tamper and bell box.

tamper switch supplied with the MA1008eM in series with the
Tamper Zone.

Fig. 2. Typical Fire Installation.
At least one smoke detector should be installed directly
outside each sleeping area. If there is more than one floor,
additional smoke detectors should be installed on each level,
including the basement.
smoke detectors should be installed near the stairway of the
next upper level.
For increased protection, additional detectors should be
installed in areas other than those required, such as dining
rooms, individual bedrooms, furnace rooms, utility rooms and
hallways. Heat detectors, rather than smoke detectors, are
recommended in garages, attics, and kitchens due to condi-
tions that may result in false alarms and improper operation.
Large areas and areas with partitions, ceiling beams, door-
ways, and open joists will require additional detectors. Refer
to NFPA Standard 74 (National Fire Protection Association,
Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA 02269) for additional infor-
mation, including proper mounting methods.
