    General Information The EVD-1, Electronic Vibration Detector, is listed by Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. and Underwriters Laboratories of Canada for primary protection of Mercantile or Bank, safe or vault and supplementary protection of interior units such as fi le cabinets, display cases, walls and ceilings.

    If the EVD-1 has not detected enough valid signals for an alarm and fi ve minutes pass after the last valid signal, the EVD-1 resets the accumulator count to zero. As an aid to installers, the EVD-1 blinks its status LED for each valid accumulator signal that it detects.

    Without a safe contact, the EVD-1 requires the standard, factory installed, cable clamp, (Potter #5280104), as shown in Figure 2a. The EVD-1 must be connected to a UL listed control unit or power supply capable of providing nominal 12 VDC and standby power. 72 hours of standby power is required for bank vault alarms.

    An alarm condition (as indicated by the status LED turning RED) must occur. Lightly scrape the blade of a screwdriver next to the EVD-1. After 15 seconds of continuous scraping, an alarm condition (as indicated by the status LED turning RED) must occur.
  • Page 12: Recommended Detector Locations

    Single Detector Applications All safe applications must have at least one EVD-1 on the body of the safe. When only one detector is required on a safe, mount the detector on the exterior of the safe on the door hinge side, near the front edge and centered within the height of the safe. (Ideally, mount the detector’s sensor center point 2 inches in from the front edge of the safe on the centerline of the safe’s height, refer to Figure 9).
  • Page 13: Determining The Maximum Linear Distance On A Safe

    This rule of thumb is valid for most available safe sizes. However, if any one dimension is very large or very small when compared to the other two dimensions, the safe may not follow this rule. In those cases, contact Potter’s technical support for assistance. Table 5 lists some common safe dimensions and their maximum linear distances when detectors are installed in recommended locations.
  • Page 14: Typical Ul Complete Safe Installations

    Typical UL Complete Vault Installations 1. Install in accordance with Underwriter Laboratories’ standard UL 681. 2. Install EVD-1 detectors on interior walls, ceilings, and fl oors, spaced as shown in Figure 7. Refer to Table 6 for maximum spacing on various materials.
