Section 1 – INTRODUCTION
1.1
General description
The VDOT-H2 and VDOT-H2-H is an attractively-styled, low profile, analog addressable, heat detector for use with
the Velocity MMP Control Panel series in analog fire alarm systems.
This analog addressable heat detector has a specific detector address to provide exact detector locations throughout
the installation. This allows for constant monitoring of the detector sensitivity and reports the detector's condition to the
fire alarm control panel.
The VDOT-H2 is a 8.3 °C (15 °F) rate-of-rise temperature heat detector with 57 °C (135 °F) fixed temperature alarm.
The VDOT-H2-H is a high temperature heat detector with 83 °C (181 °F) fixed temperature alarm.

Summary of Contents for Velocity VDOT-H2

  • Page 1: Section 1 - Introduction

    The VDOT-H2 is a 8.3 °C (15 °F) rate-of-rise temperature heat detector with 57 °C (135 °F) fixed temperature alarm. The VDOT-H2-H is a high temperature heat detector with 83 °C (181 °F) fixed temperature alarm.

  • Page 2: Section 2 - General Operation

    360 ° LED Indicator for polling and fire alarm indication Section 2 – GENERAL OPERATION The VDOT-H2 heat detector initiates an alarm in response to both 8.3 °C (15 °F) rate-of-rise temperature or a 57 °C (135 °F) fixed temperature alarm point.

    8.3 °C (15 °F) Section 6 – BASE MODELS There are 5 mounting bases that are available for use with the VDOT-H2. For VDOT-H2-H, there are 2 mounting bases for use. In order to operate correctly, it is important to use the appropriate mounting base as indicated in the table below. Refer to the specific mounting base instruction manuals for details.

  • Page 5: Section 8 - Installation

    The operating temperature range is 0 °C to 37.8 °C (32 °F to 100 °F) for VDOT-H2 and 0 °C to 65.6 °C (32 °F to 150 °F) for VDOT-H2-H.
  • Page 6 8.2.1 Spacing of Heat Detectors Spot type heat detector spacing is based on detector installation on a flat smooth ceiling at 3 m (10 ft.) high. Spacing of spot type detector is shown in Figure 2. The coverage area of a detector is represented as a square. Actual detector coverage covers a circle whose radius is 0.7 times the listed spacing.
  • Page 7 Figure 3: Detector circle of coverage Listed Spacing 9.1m x 9.1m = 84m (30ft x 30ft = 900ft A : 7.6m x 10.4m = 79m (25ft x 34ft = 850ft B : 6.1m x 11.3m = 69m (20ft x 37ft = 740ft C : 4.6m x 11.9m = 54m (15ft x 39ft = 585ft D : 3.1m x 12.5m = 38m...
  • Page 8 When installed on the ceiling, spot type heat detectors must be located a minimum of 10 cm (4 in.) from side walls. When installed on side walls, the detector must be between 10 cm (4 in.) and 30 cm (12 in.) from the ceiling, as shown in Figure 5.
  • Page 9 8.2.2 Ceiling construction and heat detectors When installing heat detectors on other than flat and smooth ceilings or at ceiling height greater than 3 m (10 ft.), spacing must be adjusted. The table below shows the reduction in listed spacing to be applied when detectors are mounted on ceilings higher than 3 m (10 ft.).
  • Page 10 Figure 8: Heat detector spacing — solid joist construction (plan view) 8.2.4 Exposed beams Exposed beams may impede the heat flow to the detectors. Beams are defined as members extending 10 cm (4 in.) or more down from the ceiling and spaced more than 91 cm (36 in.) apart. The spacing of heat detectors must be reduced by 33% in the direction perpendicular to the beam.

  • Page 12 8.2.5 Sloping ceiling (peaked and shed) In the rooms with peaked ceilings, the first row of detectors must be located within 1 m (3 ft.)(measured horizontally) of the ceiling peak, but not closer than 10 cm (4 in.) vertically to the peak. Additional detectors, if required, must be located based on the horizontal projection of the ceiling and the type of ceiling construction.
  • Page 13 Procedure for installing Note: All wiring must be installed in compliance with the National Electrical Code, applicable local codes and the Authority Having Jurisdiction. Proper wire gauges should be used. The installation wires should be color coded to limit wiring mistakes and ease system troubleshooting.
  • Page 14 Figure 13: Wiring diagram for VDOT-UB4 and VDOT-UB4-6 SLC Line impedance is 50Ω at maximum and the maximum length is 2km. Refer to the manual of control panel series to determine correct maximum loop load and maximum loop resistance for devices connected to each loop. ! CAUTION Use cable AWG12-20 for wiring.

  • Page 15: Section 9 - Testing

    Tamper resistance feature The VDOT-UB series, VDOT-S6 Base, and VDOT-STB series of smoke/heat detector mounting bases have a tamper- resist feature that works in conjunction with the heat detectors. When this feature is enabled, the heat detectors cannot be removed from the base without the use of a small hexagonal wrench. To avoid unauthorized removal of the heat detector, turn the locking screw in the mounting base counterclockwise until the screw extends out about 4 mm (3/16 in.) from the rim of the base, as shown in the Figure 15.

    Section 10 - MAINTENANCE Notes: • Before cleaning, notify the proper authorities that the system is undergoing maintenance, and therefore the system will temporarily be out of service. • Disable the loop or system undergoing maintenance to prevent unwanted alarms. It is recommended that the sensor be removed from its mounting base for easier cleaning and that sensors be cleaned at least once a year.
