Installing the Detector Installing the Detector This chapter provides basic guidelines for installing the detector. It does not attempt to cover all of the standard practices and codes of installation. Rather, it emphasizes specific points of consideration and provides some general rules for qualified personnel.
Installing the Detector 3.1.5 Aiming the Detector • The detector should be aimed toward the center of the detection zone and have a completely unobstructed view of the protected area. • Whenever possible, the detector face should be tilted down at a 45º angle to maximize coverage and prevent accumulation of dust and dirt.
Installing the Detector Table 13: Tools Tool Function Comments Hex key 3/16” Open and close detector Part of the kit cover (for wiring) Hex key 1/4” Mount the detector on the tilt Part of the kit mount Flat screwdriver Connect ground terminal Standard tool Flat screwdriver Connect wires to the terminal...
Installing the Detector • Gaps, ic, should not be modified to be any larger, and lengths, L, should not be modified to be any shorter than the values shown in the table above. • Units may be painted or fitted with optional accessories, some of which are made of a non-metallic material or have a non-metallic coating which could potentially generate an ignition-capable level of electrostatic charge under certain extreme conditions.
Installing the Detector • If the equipment is likely to come into contact with aggressive substances, then it is the responsibility of the user to take suitable precautions that prevent it from being adversely affected, thus ensuring that the type of protection provided by the equipment is not compromised: •...
Installing the Detector Installing the Tilt Mount The tilt mount (P/N 40/40-001) enables the detector to be rotated up to 60º in all directions. Figure 4 shows the detector mounted on the tilt mount. Figure 4: Detector with Tilt Mount SharpEye™...
