Maintenance and Service

For maintenance and inspection work on security systems, the regulations laid down in
DIN VDE 0833 strictly apply in Germany; these refer to the maintenance intervals specified by
the manufacturer.
Notice!
The 500 Series Detectors do not require to be removed from their bases for routine
maintenance.
If occasionally a detector requires replacement due to a design change or damage to the
device then this should be carried out by a qualified engineer.
This should only be undertaken when the system is offline and the user has made alternative
arrangements for emergency evacuation.

Test steps
Check of the LED display
Visual check of the mounting
Visual inspection for damage and contamination of the detector
surface
Check monitoring area for limitations of function and interference
caused by lamps
Test of the optical sensors (refer to Inspection Procedure for
FCP‑O 500, page 23)
Combined test with detector test device and CO testing gas (refer to
Inspection Procedure for FCP‑OC 500, page 22)
Notice!
Multisensor detectors with C sensors must be exchanged every 4 - 6 years.
FCP-OC 500
Due to the life expectancy of the gas sensor, the FCP‑OC 500 detector switches off the
C sensors after approx. 4 ‑ 6 years of operation. The detector will continue to function as an
O detector.
The detector should then be exchanged immediately in order to be able to keep using the
higher reliability of detection of the OC detector.
Notice!
The cleaning intervals depend on the environmental conditions.
Bosch Sicherheitssysteme GmbH
Maintenance and inspection work should be carried out regularly and by trained technical
personnel.
Bosch Sicherheitssysteme GmbH recommends a functional and visual inspection at least
once a year.
