BEFORE INSTALLING

Please thoroughly read the System Smoke Detectors Application Guide, which
provides detailed information on detector spacing, placement, zoning, wiring, and
special applications. Copies of this manual are available at no charge from System
Sensor. (For installation in Canada, please refer to CAN/ULC-S524, Standard for the
Installation of Fire Alarm Systems and CEC Part 1, Sec. 32.)
NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user of this equipment.
IMPORTANT: The detector used with this base must be tested and maintained regu-
larly following NFPA 72 requirements. The detector used with this base should be
cleaned at least once a year.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

The Model B110LP detector base is designed for use with System Sensor models
2151 photoelectronic and 1151 ionization detector heads. This two-wire base is
equipped with screw terminals for the connection of power, ground, and an optional
remote annunciator.
MOUNTING
The detector base mounts directly to 3-½ inch and 4-inch octagon boxes and 4-inch
square boxes, with or without plaster rings. To mount the base, remove the decorative
ring by rotating it in either direction to unhook the snaps before separating the ring
from the base. Use the screws supplied with the junction box to attach the base to the
box through the appropriate slots in the base (see Figure 1). Position the decorative
ring around the base and rotate it in either direction until the ring snaps into place.

INSTALLATION GUIDELINES

Allowable loop resistance is an important specification for control panels as well as
for smoke detectors and their bases. The alarm system cannot be expected to oper-
ate correctly if system components have incompatible allowable loop resistances.
Therefore, before beginning installation, refer to the control panel manufacturer's
loop resistance specification to ensure that it is listed as compatible with the System
Sensor base and smoke detector being installed.
System Sensor smoke detectors and mounting bases are marked with a compatibility
identifier as the last digit of a five-digit code stamped on the back of the product.
Connect detectors only to compatible control units as indicated in System Sensor's
compatibility chart. This chart consists of a current list of UL-listed control unit/
detector combinations and is available from System Sensor upon request.
All wiring must be installed in compliance with the National Electrical Code and all
applicable local codes and any special requirements of the authority having jurisdic-
