The wireless kit is part of the GEZE hold-open system FA GC
150 or FA GC 160.
The wireless module GC 171, ID 163051, makes wireless
communication possible between the lintel-mounted
smoke switch and the various wireless devices:
à Wireless ceiling-mounted smoke detector GC 172, ID 159656
à Wireless ceiling-mounted thermal detector GC 173, ID 159657
à Wireless input module GC 175, ID 163068 (for the
connection of manual trigger switches or contacts for the
fire detector system)

2. 1
Use
The GC 172 is a wireless ceiling-mounted smoke detector for
use in the GEZE hold-open system FA GC 150 or FA GC 160.
Signal transfer from the detector takes place wirelessly. .
A wireless module GC 171 is essential for use of the wire-
less ceiling-mounted smoke detector GC 172.
Smoke detectors detect smoke. They work using the light
scatter principle. A light transmitter and a light receiver
are arranged in the measuring chamber in such a way that
no light meets the receiver in the normal case. If there are
suspended particles (smoke) in the measuring chamber,
these scatter part of the light onto the receiver, which

converts this into an electric signal.
In other words, a smoke detector not only detects smoke
but all other suspended particles and responds sensitively
to soiling.
2.2
Protection of the smoke detector from
soiling
à Do not remove the dust protection cap from the smoke
detector until commissioning is about to take place.
à After the smoke detector has been installed and the
dust protection removed, make sure no dust gets into
the measuring chamber. This leads to increased soiling
and can significantly shorten the service life of the
smoke detector.
à The measuring chamber of a smoke detector must not
be opened.

or FA GC 160 - Instructions for the installation, commis-
sioning, operation and maintenance, see www.geze.com.
