D350PL INTELLIGENT PHOTOELECTRONIC DUCT SMOKE DETECTOR
Before installing detectors, please thoroughly read the NEMA Guide for Proper Use of Smoke Detectors in Duct Applications, which provides detailed
information on detector spacing, placement, zoning, wiring, and special applications. Copies of this manual are available from NEMA (National Electrical
Manufacturers Association, 2101 L Street NW, Washington, DC 20037). NFPA Standards 72 and 90A should also be referenced for detailed informa-
tion.
NOTICE: This manual shall be left with the owner/user of this equipment.
IMPORTANT: This detector must be tested and maintained regularly following NFPA 72 requirements. The detector should be cleaned at least once
a year.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
An HVAC system supplies conditioned air to virtually every area of a building. Smoke introduced into this air duct system is distributed to the entire
building. Smoke detectors designed for use in air duct systems are used to sense the presence of smoke in the duct.
The D350PL air duct smoke detector is a photoelectric detector. This smoke detection method combines with an efficient housing design that samples
air passing through a duct and allows detection of a developing hazardous condition. When sufficient smoke is sensed, an alarm signal is initiated at
the fire control panel monitoring the detector, and appropriate action can be taken to shut off fans, blowers and change over air handling systems, etc.
This can prevent the distribution or it can isolate toxic smoke and fire gases throughout the areas served by the duct system.
Two LEDs on each detector may illuminate, if programmed by the system control panel, to provide a local alarm indication. There is also a remote
alarm output for use with auxiliary devices. The D350PL has remote test capability with the RTS451/RTS451KEY Remote Test Station.

    WARNING LIMITATIONS OF DUCT DETECTORS WARNING The National Fire Protection Association has established that DUCT DETECTORS MUST NOT BE USED AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR OPEN AREA DETECTOR PROTECTION as a means of providing life safety. Nor are they a substitute for early warning in a building’s regular fire detection sys- tem.

    [4.2] Installation For Ducts More Than 8 Feet (2.4m) Wide NOTE: To install sampling tubes in ducts more than 8 feet (2.4m) wide, work must be performed inside the air duct. Sampling of air in ducts wider than 8 feet (2.4m) is accomplished by using the ST-10 sampling tube. If the tube is shorter than the width of the air duct, install the end cap into the sampling tube as shown in Figure 4 and support the end opposite the duct smoke detector.
  • Page 5: Step 7. Perform Detector Check

    Two LEDs on each duct smoke detector may light, if programmed by the system control panel, to provide a local, visible indication. Remote LED annunciator capability is available as an option. Each duct smoke detector can only be wired to one remote accessory. Fire•Lite panels offer different feature sets across different panel models.
  • Page 6 [9.1.3] Smoke Entry Test To determine if smoke is capable of entering the sensing chamber, visually identify any obstructions. Plug the exhaust and sampling tube holes to prevent ducted air from carrying smoke away from the detector head, then blow smoke such as cigarette, cotton wick, or punk directly at the head to cause an alarm.
