Argus Security S2000 Quick Start Manual

S2000
CONVENTIONAL PHOTO & CLASS A1R HEAT DETECTOR

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

This type of detector continuously samples the air and the temperature variation in the protected area to provide the earliest warning
of fire and yet offers a high level of false alarm rejection. This device benefits from a "Double Dust Trap" incorporated into the design
of the smoke entry ports, hence limiting potential contamination and extending periods between maintenance without compromising
sensitivity of response. These detectors are designed for open area protection and must only be connected to conventional control
panels. The centrally positioned red LED indicator provides 360° visibility and thus does not require any orientation during installation.
An in-built magnet test allows easy activation to verify correct functioning of the detectors on site.

IMPORTANT INSTALLATION WARNINGS

CONFIRM YOUR SYSTEM'S COMPATIBILITY BY CONSULTING WITH YOUR SUPPLIER OR WITH THE CONTROL PANEL'S
MANUFACTURER.
FOR SPECIFIC INFORMATION REGARDING DETECTOR AND DEVICE'S SPACING, PLACEMENT AND SPECIAL APPLICA-
TIONS REFER TO YOUR SPECIFIC NATIONAL OR INTERNATIONAL STANDARD CODES OF PRACTICE.
BEFORE INSTALLATION ENSURE THAT POWER IS REMOVED FROM THE SYSTEM.
DURING DEVICE'S CABLING, REMEMBER THAT CONNECTIONS TO THE TERMINALS ARE POLARITY SENSITIVE: SO,
PLEASE, CHECK THEM BY REFERRING TO THE WIRING INFORMATION GIVEN IN THIS MANUAL.
REMEMBER THAT THE ALARM CURRENT ABSORBED BY THE SENSOR MUST BE LIMITED IN ORDER TO AVOID PERMA-
NENT DAMAGE (SEE THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPHS).

ADAPTOR BASE INSTALLATION

In order to fix a sensor to the wall it is necessary to use its adequate adaptor base. So:
1) select the position where you want to install the sensor and the base.
2) Install the base in the selected position by inserting the screws in the points indicated in picture 1.
Picture 1 - Wall fixing screw entry
points on the adaptor base.

LIMITATION OF THE ALARM CURRENT

When alarmed, the detector absorbs more current than usually does when quiescent: the absorbed current by the sensor in this state
is indicated as "alarm current"; since:
IF THE ALARM CURRENT EXCEEDS THE MAXIMUM SPECIFIED VALUE (SEE THE TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS TABLE),
THE DETECTOR CAN BE PARMANENTLY DAMAGED!
So, the alarm current must be limited in two different ways:
1) having a control panel which limits the alarm current through an in-built limiter.
2) By limiting the alarm current through a resistor fitted on the detector base (see the following wiring paragraphs).
If a remote LED indicator or another remote device is connected to the adaptor base and, so, the sensor, remember that:
ITS ABSORBED CURRENT WILL BE ADDED THE SENSOR'S ALARM CURRENT.

REMOTE OUTPUT CAPABILITY

Remote output capability is available as a standard feature so a remote indication lamp or a compatible platform sounder (check
power requirements) may be wired to the base terminals.
If other equipment is connected to the remote output, its supply current must be eventually limited by using an adequate
resistor. Consult the TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS table and assess the external device current absorption's value.

WIRING - BASE WITHOUT RESISTOR

This configuration is to be used only when the control panel limits the alarm current to less than the sensor's allowed maximum value
(picture 2).

WARNINGS AND LIMITATIONS

Our devices use high quality electronic components and plastic materials that are highly resistant to
environmental deterioration. However, after 10 years of continuous operation, it is advisable to replace the
devices in order to minimize the risk of reduced performance caused by external factors. Ensure that this
device is only used with compatible control panels. Detection systems must be checked, serviced and
maintained on a regular basis to confirm correct operation.
Smoke sensors may respond differently to various kinds of smoke particles, thus application advice
should be sought for special risks. Sensors cannot respond correctly if barriers exist between them and
the fire location and may be affected by special environmental conditions.
Refer to and follow national codes of practice and other internationally recognized fire engineering stan-
dards.
Appropriate risk assessment should be carried out initially to determine correct design criteria and up-
dated periodically.

WARRANTY

All devices are supplied with the benefit of a limited 3 year warranty relating to faulty materials or manu-
facturing defects, effective from the production date indicated on each product.
This warranty is invalidated by mechanical or electrical damage caused in the field by incorrect handling
or usage.
Product must be returned via your authorized supplier for repair or replacement together with full informa-
tion on any problem identified.
Full details on our warranty and product's returns policy can be obtained upon request.
