Page 17: Installation
INSTALLATION The detector must be installed in accordance with its certification and with the standards of the appropriate authority in the country concerned. 4.1. Location The detector should be positioned above the targeted danger zone and at a distance corresponding to the type of fire it have to detect. Be aware of potential radiation sources as these may trigger a false alarm. -
Page 18: Mounting
4.2. Mounting Use the two 7 mm diameter holes and the half slotted hole to secure the support. It is highly recommended to install the support with cable-gland downward in order to avoid water infiltrations. In case of horizontal position, it is advised to make one or two loops with the cable at the entry of the cable-gland. - Page 19 4.2.1.2. Ball pivot bracket – AS048 The detector is supported by a completely adjustable support. The assembly of the bracket with the device is done by a CHC M14 x 24 screw. These one is used to set the lateral orientation.
- Page 20 4.2.3. Sunshade / bad weather protection A sunshade / weather protection (AS056-450) in light and resistant material (UV resistant) is available. Mounted above the detector, it gives an additional protection against sun and bad weather. 4.2.4. Detector cartridge visor The detector is fitted with a short visor for protection of the optical detector window (standard).

Page 21: Electric Connection
4.3. Electric Connection Never adjust electric connections when detectors are powered. Maintenance must be undertaken by qualified staff. Observe safety site rules. MultiFlame DF-TV7 is a sensor with standard current output 4-20mA. The connection can be on 3 or 4 wires. The 4 wires configuration allows insulation between the signal and power loops. - Page 22 Figure 4 : Terminal blocks Point JP12 & JP13 Description Relay 2 Relay 2 Relay 1 Relay 1 Point JP11 Description +24VDC power supply +24VDC power supply loop (connected to point 2) 0 V, Connected to point 1 20mA Current loop: entry 20mA Current loop: output 4.3.2.

Page 27: Detection Cartridge
4.4. Detection cartridge The cartridge is separated from the detector to enable its replacement. Its dismantling is extremely easy and does not need to touch the rest of the unit. Be careful when plugging or removing the detection cartridge. • Align the centring pin of the cartridge with the corresponding hole in the housing. - Page 28 Default detection mode of the XVA0 (UVIR²) may be changed using DIP switches at the back of the cartridge Switches S1 and S2 are used for the UV/IR detection mode as shown in the table below. The configuration is frozen, and cannot be changed with the TLU. Switches S1 and S2 are not used for the multispectrum sensor cartridges (3IR).

Page 29: Commissioning
COMMISSIONING 5.1. Visual inspection Make certain that all the operations of the “Installation” chapter have been achieved correctly. Pay particular attention on installation conformity, check the cables entry, the presence of O- rings, and the connexion of the cartridge. • Check if the detection mode (UV/IR, 3IR) match with the marking 5.2. -
Page 30: Using The Lt15 Test Lamp
5.4. Using the LT15 test lamp The LT15 is a flashing test lamp used for functional test of flame detectors. The emission spectrum of the lamp is between 280 nm (UV) and 5 µm (IR). The emission is pulsed to simulate the typical flickering of flames. LT15 is certified Ex d IIC T6-T5 and suitable for operation in areas with explosion hazard, (zone 1 and 2) in accordance with the EN 60079-0 and EN 60079-1 standards. -

Page 41: Maintenance
MAINTENANCE The interventions described in this chapter must be performed by competent and qualified staff. Device performances may be affected if the present instructions are not respected. Cartridge unplug or device opening imperatively require power to be OFF. 8.1. Periodic maintenance We recommend, at least, a biannual check. -
Page 42: List Of Main Faults
8.2. List of main faults In addition of the current loop faults, other information are available from the wireless communication tool TLU600/610 (refer to § 6.6). If the detector does not work properly, the following table can help you to determine the causes and effects of different possible troubles. -
Page 43: Replacing The Cartridge
8.3. Replacing the cartridge Follow the instruction in §4.4. 8.4. Replacing the complete detector If the operator needs to replace the complete detector, the easiest way is to take off the main housing from the base of the detector (for more details, refer to § 4.2.2). As the base of the detector remains in place, cable glands do not need to be dismantled. -
