Tyco DSC FSD-210 Series Installation And Operating Instructions

Read this instruction sheet thoroughly before installation and use of the
FSD-210 2-Wire Smoke Detector. This instruction sheet shall be used in conjunc-
tion with the Installation Manual of the alarm control panel. All the instructions
specified within that manual must be observed.
Piezo Siren
Introduction
The FSD-210 is a 2-wire photoelectric smoke detector with
internal piezoelectric alarm and optional fixed temperature
heat detector and/or auxiliary form C relay. Two versions are
available: US version (UL) and Canadian version (ULC). For
installations requiring tandem alarm operation, refer to the
PRM series modules and FSA series smoke detectors.
Operation
Approximately every 7 to 8 seconds the unit tests for a smoke
or heat alarm condition. During this sequence the unit also
performs self diagnostics, and checks for faults. During normal
operation the LED will flash every 50 seconds and the siren will
not sound.

Installer Instructions
1. Smoke Detector Placement
On smooth ceilings, detectors
may be spaced 9.1M (30 feet)
apart as a guide. Other spacing
may be required depending on
ceiling height, air movement, the
presence of joists, uninsulated
ceilings, etc. Consult National Fire
Alarm Code NFPA 72, Chapter 11
CAN/ULC-S553-02 or
appropriate national standards for
installation recommendations.

The smoke detector has a nominal fixed alarm sensitivity (refer
to the Specifications on the last page) and it will go into alarm
when the signal level exceeds the 'alarm' threshold and send
the alarm signal to the control panel. During an alarm the LED
will flash 1/second and the siren will sound the evacuation
temporal pattern (UL) or continuous beeps (ULC).
Smoke - Drift Compensation
The detector automatically compensates for long-term envi-
ronmentally induced changes to maintain a constant smoke
sensitivity. When the drift compensation has reached its high
or low limit of adjustment, the detector will go into the trou-
ble state.
Heat Alarm
The heat detector will go into alarm when the heat signal level
exceeds the heat alarm threshold (135ºF/57ºC); and send the
alarm signal to the control panel. During an alarm the LED will
flash 1/second and the siren will sound the evacuation tempo-
ral pattern (UL) or continuous beeps (ULC).

Do NOT locate smoke detectors at the top of peaked or
gabled ceilings; the dead air space in these locations may pre-
vent the unit from detecting smoke. Avoid areas with turbu-
lent air flow, (near doors, fans or windows. Rapid air
movement around the detector may prevent smoke from
entering the unit. Do NOT locate detectors in areas of high
humidity.
Do NOT locate detectors in areas where the temperature rises
above 38ºC (100ºF) or falls below 5ºC (41ºF).
Install Smoke detectors in accordance with NFPA 72,
Ch. 11: "Smoke detectors shall be installed outside of each
sleeping area in the immediate vicinity of the bedrooms and
on each additional story of the family living unit, including
basements and excluding crawl spaces and unfinished attics.
In new construction, a smoke detector also shall be installed in
each sleeping room."
