Page 12: Important Safety Instructions
2.1 Important Safety Instructions Mains operated Alarms should be installed and interconnected by a licensed electrician in accordance with the relevant Regulations for Electrical Installations. Failure to install this Alarm correctly may expose the user to shock or fire hazards and damage the product. The Alarm is designed to be permanently mounted, using it’s own built-in terminal block to connect it to the mains. -
Page 13: Where To Locate The Alarm
The Alarm must be continuously powered 24 hours a day so it is important that it is not on a circuit that can be turned off by a switch. The power supply for the Alarms should be derived from the public electricity supply to the dwelling. - Page 14 A single Smoke Alarm will give some protection if it is properly installed, but most homes will require two or more to ensure that a reliable early warning is given. For recommended protection you should put individual Smoke Alarms in all rooms where fire is most likely to break out (apart from the kitchen and bathroom).

Page 20: Locations To Avoid
Wall mounting should only be considered where close spaced beams or similar obstructions may preclude ceiling mounting. It is considered to be the responsibility of the installer/client to determine if the presence of asbestos in the ceiling material would make ceiling mounting ‘impractical’. Sloping Ceiling With a sloping or peaked ceiling install a Smoke or Heat Alarm between 500mm min. - Page 21 • Locate away from very dusty or dirty areas as dust build-up on the optical smoke sensor can impair performance. It can block the insect screen mesh and prevent smoke from entering the sensor. Dust build up can also increase the response time of the heat sensor. •...

Page 22: Mounting And Wiring
2.6 Mounting and wiring 1. Select a location complying with the advice in previous sections. 2. Disconnect the AC mains supply from the circuit that is going to be used. 3. Lift off the wiring cover as shown in Figure 3. The wiring must be TPS 1.5mm and connected to the terminal block on the mounting plate... - Page 23 Warning: Mixing (or leaving unattached) the Live and Neutral connections when interconnecting Alarms may damage all the Alarms - ensure that the same colour wires are used throughout the premises for Live, Neutral and Interconnect wires. We strongly recommend that you check for the following before connecting the Alarm: •...
- Page 24 Fig.4 Fig.5 4. If the mains wires are recessed, bring the wires through the rear hole in the mounting plate as shown in Figure 4. If the mains wires are being brought along the surface: (a) position the mounting plate so the cable trunking is as shown in Figure 4. (b) the mounting plate has a removable section, take it out to interface directly with 25mm trunking as shown in Figure 5.
- Page 25 wall. This is to prevent air draughts affecting the smoke/heat entering the Alarm. If the hole is too large or the Alarm does not seal it, it should be sealed with silicone rubber or equivalent. 6. Replace the wiring cover and carefully line up the Alarm on the base and slide on (see Figure 6). 7.

Page 26: Interconnecting Alarms
Note: A maximum of 12 Fire / Smoke / Heat / CO Alarms and accessory devices can be interconnected in a Brooks Alarm system. (Any EIB3000 series Alarm can also be interconnected to an EIB160e and EIB140RC Series). - Page 27 Make electrical connections as shown in Figure 8. Fig.8 Wiring must be installed in compliance with AS3000. In Australia it is recommended that the following coloured cores are used. 230V supply : Brown Neutral : Blue Interconnect : White The interconnect wire must be treated as if it was Live. It should be double insulated. A maximum of 250 metres of wire can be used (maximum resistance between Alarms 50 Ohms).

Page 30: Testing And Maintaining Your Alarm
3.1 Testing and maintaining your Alarm Frequent testing of all your Alarms is a requirement to ensure they are functioning correctly. Guidelines and best practices for testing are as follows: 1. After the system is installed. 2. Once monthly thereafter. 3. - Page 31 (iii) Press the test button for up to 10 seconds and ensure that the Alarm sounds. This tests the sensor, electronics and sounder are working. The Alarm will stop when the button is released. Pressing the test button simulates the effect of smoke and/or heat and therefore is the best way to ensure the Alarm is operating correctly.
-
Page 32: Cleaning Your Alarm
The EIB3000MRF modules (if required) must be re-fitted to the Alarms and the Alarms must be re-attached to the mounting plates when the premises are re-occupied. Ensure to match the original RF module back to the same Alarm head. (Long term storage (over 1 year) can damage the batteries such that they will not recharge when the units are re-connected to the mains supply). - Page 33 WARNING: Do not paint your Alarm. Other than the cleaning described above, no other customer servicing of this product is required. Servicing or repairs, when needed, must be performed by the manufacturer. All Alarms are prone to dust and insect ingress, which can cause false alarms or failure to alarm. In certain circumstances, even with regular cleaning, contamination can build up in the smoke sensing chamber causing the Alarm to sound or fail.

- Page 43 The entire Alarm must be replaced (Also check the replace by date on the label on the side of the Alarm). Disconnect the mains first and replace the Alarm - see ‚Removing the Alarm‘ section. Maximum Dust Compensation (EIB3016 and EIB3024 only) The Alarm monitors the dust contamination build-up in the optical smoke chamber and then compensates for it, reducing the possibility of false alarms.

Page 44: Important Safeguards
Important safeguards... - Page 45 Limitations of Alarms Multi-Sensor / Smoke / Heat Alarms can significantly help to reduce the risk of fire fatalities. However independent authorities have stated that these systems may be ineffective in some fire situations. There are a number of reasons for this: - The Alarms will not work if the mains power supply is off or disconnected and the backup battery is depleted.
- Page 46 When an alarm system is installed, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including those listed below: • Please read all instructions. • Use the Testing of the Alarm as a means to familiarise your family with the alarm sound and to practice fire drills regularly with all family members.
