Installation - Gira 5201 00 Manual

3.2. Installation

DANGER!
Lethal danger from electric shock.
De-energise the device. Cover live parts.
Installation notes
• Always mount in the main security area.
• Do not mount on external walls as these can be tampered with, e.g. opened up by drilling.
• Only mount in locations in which the temperature is constant (e.g. no direct sunlight).
• Choose the installation location so that it is within the detection range of a motion detector, or can-
not be reached without triggering an alarm.
• Mount horizontally (the housing cover can only be opened upwards).
• Recommended mounting height: at least 1.50 m above the floor.
• Keep the alarm control unit at least 50 cm clear of ceilings, metal objects and other devices (unsuit-
able: metal doors or cabinets or direct vicinity of fuse boxes and electricity meters).
• Mounting methods other than wall mounting are not allowed.
• Select the installation location so that the wireless signals between the alarm centre and the wire-
less operating unit can be easily sent or received during test operation.
Order No. 5201 00
Installation and electrical connection
1. Unpack the alarm control unit.
2. Remove the housing cover.
3. Align the alarm control unit, mark the drilling holes,
drill and insert the wall plugs.
4. Mount the alarm control unit. The disconnecting sur-
face of the tamper contact (see "Rear Side - Device
Description") must be secured with a screw.
5. Disconnect the mains voltage and wire the alarm cen-
tre accordingly to the application.
Wall mounting
Make sure the wall surface is level. In the case of an
uneven wall surface, there is the possibility that the
housing will move during installation. This can cause
the housing cover to be improperly inserted and
closed.
