Wireless ceiling-mounted smoke
detector GC 172
3. 1
Use
The GC 172 is a wireless ceiling-mounted smoke detector for
use in the GEZE hold-open system FA GC 150 or FA GC 160.
Signal transfer from the detector takes place wirelessly.
A wireless module GC 171 is essential for use of the
wireless ceiling-mounted smoke detector GC 172.
Smoke detectors detect smoke. They work using the scat-
tered light principle. A light transmitter and a light interface
are arranged in the measuring chamber in such a way that
no light reaches the interface in the normal case. If there are
suspended particles (smoke) in the measuring chamber, these
scatter part of the light onto the interface, which converts this
into an electric signal.
In other words, a smoke detector not only detects smoke
but all other suspended particles and responds sensitively
to contamination.
3.2
Protection of the smoke detector from contamination
ú Do not remove the dust protection cap from the smoke detector until commissioning is about to take place.
ú After the smoke detector has been installed and the dust protection removed, make sure no dust gets into the measuring chamber.
This leads to increased contamination and can significantly shorten the service life of the smoke detector.
ú The measuring chamber of a smoke detector must not be opened.
Heed the document for the hold-open system FA GC 150 or FA GC 160 - Instructions for the installation, commissioning, operation and
maintenance, see www.geze.com.
