EDS - TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS QUICK INSTALLATION The procedure below is intended for trained personell with previous experience in installing EDS Beam Smoke Detectors RK90-R(S). If you don’t have the needed experience please refer to the standard installation procedure of this manual.On our site www.eds.eu is available a video with instructions for installing the RK90-R(S).
EDS - TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS REFLECTIVE TYPE OPTICAL BEAM SMOKE DETECTOR RK90-R The RK90-R(S) detector is a new design microprocessor linear smoke detector, that bases its working concept on the interaction between the smoke present in a in a room and an infrared beam emitted by a transmitter and reflected by an optical reflector (fig.1).
EDS - TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS 3.4 - Get the cables inside through the holes obtained breaking the suitable zones marked on the sides of the detector’s base. It is important to use a suitable chock with a connecting pipe to avoid that the dust penetrates inside the device, possibly causing failure to its correct functioning.
7.1.2 - The BLP-90 Laser pointer is an accessory that makes the installation faster EDS detectors. It allows a fast primary alignment. But it is always useful to make the electrical alignment (fine adjustment).
EDS - TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS 7.1.3 - Be careful when performing the operations below, avoiding to damage the Laser pcb pressing or shocking it, so that it remains alligned with the optics.The pointer is factory aligned with the optics on the factory testing optical bench.

EDS - TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS 8.3 - Set the jumper of Initial Optical Allignment JP1 (fig.9) to ON position ( 2- 3, Alignment) to activate the initial setup mode. 8.4 - Power UP the detector. 8.5 - The blue led and the red one will start to work in the way described ahead in the chap. 8.12. Before reading that chapte read the following.

EDS - TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS • If during the operation the signal overcomes 4,5V, to avoid the saturation, act on the trimmer P1 to bring the signal back to 3 V, allowing the best evaluation of the variations of the signal •...
EDS - TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS 8.15 - Select the alarm threshold level of the circuit sensible to Obscuration acting on the selector SW2 keeping in mind the following : • position 1 - low sensitivity - obscuration alarm threshold set to 70% ..........signal level 1.5V •...
EDS - TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS • the signal drops below the 90% setup value (optical beam completely interrupted by an obstacle) • the circuit of autocompensation has reached the limit (when this happens to proceed, it is necessary to do the maintenance of the detector) •...
EDS - TECHNICAL INSTRUCTIONS 14 - OPERATIONAL TEST 14.1 - Verification of the circuit sensitive to Obscuration. The verification is carried out simply by darkening the reflector with an opaque screen. After 10 seconds, the detector’s alarm relay must activate / deactivate (chap.5.2 - jumper JP8) and the frontal red alarm led must be switched ON.
