[5] Installation Sequence

[5.1] Verify Duct Air Flow Direction And Velocity
Model DH100ACDCLP detectors are designed to be used in air han-
dling systems having air velocities of 100 to 4000 feet per minute.
Be sure to check engineering specifications to ensure that the air
velocity in the duct falls within these parameters. If necessary, use a
velocity meter (anemometer) to check the air velocity in the duct.
[5.2] Drill The Mounting Holes
Remove the paper backing from the mounting template supplied.
Affix the template to the duct at the desired mounting location.
Make sure the template lies flat and smooth on the duct. Center
punch holes A and B. Drill the holes as indicated on the template.

1. Remove the front cover.
2. Slide the plastic sampling tube into the housing bushing.
3. A lign the holes in the bushing with the holes in the sampling
tube. Make sure there are 6 exposed holes on the plastic sam-
pling tube. Secure with the #8 self-tapping screw into the bot-
tom of the permanent tube (shown in Figure 2).
NOTE: The sampling tube end cap is critical to the proper opera-
tion of the duct smoke detector. The end cap is needed to create
the proper air flow to the sensor of the duct smoke detector.
NOTE: For ducts greater than 1
[5.4.1] and [5.4.2].

The sampling tube is identified by a series of air inlet holes on
the tube. A plastic tube is included for ducts up to 18˝ in width.
All other lengths must be purchased separately. Order the cor-
rect length, as specified in Table 1, for width of the duct where it
will be installed. It is recommended that the sampling tube length
extend at least 2 ⁄ across the duct width for optimal performance.

The exhaust tube is molded onto the base of the duct housing,
and the A2440-00 Exhaust Tube Extension is available as an ac-
cessory in those cases where the molded exhaust port does not
extend at least 2 inches into the duct.
The sampling tube is always installed with the air inlet holes
facing into the air flow. To assist proper installation, the tube's
mounting flange is marked with an arrow. Make sure the sam-
pling tube is mounted so that the arrow points into the air flow
(see Figure 4). Figure 5 shows the various combinations of tube
mounting configurations with respect to air flow. Mounting the
detector housing in a vertical orientation is acceptable, provided
that the air flows directly into the sampling tube holes as indi-
H0110-00
cated in Figure 4.
