8900 EMR Installation Instructions Wiring: wire gauge 4.5 Wire gauge Fig.13 Wire gauge: The maximum wire gauge for wiring the SD-2 detector module is #18 AWG. The method for determining wire gauge is given below. NOTE: A minimum of 20.4 VDC must be supplied to each solenoid in the run.
8900 EMR Installation Instructions Wiring: SD-2 detector Wiring: Solenoid attachment 4.6 SD-2 detector to main solenoid connection Fig.14 Strip approximately 1/4” of plastic insulation from the end of the two solenoid wires supplied. Connect one end each of the electromagnet wires to terminals 6 & 9 of the SD-2 detector as shown.
8900 EMR Installation Instructions Wiring: SD-2 detector 4.9 SD-2 detector interconnection Fig.17 Up to (5) SD-2 detectors, with or without connection to an auxiliary unit or remote area detector may be interconnected. This limitation applies only to interconnected units and assumes a power supply large enough to handle this load if the power supply is common to all units interconnected.
8900 EMR Installation Instructions Wiring: SD-2 detector 4.10 SD-2 detector to remote area detector Fig.18 CAUTION: A remote open area detector can only be connected to a unit whose trouble relay contacts (#5 & #13) are connected in a circuit for the purpose of obtaining an audible trouble signal in the event of a circuit fault.
