    90° To obtain a precise cut and to avoid chipping, the use of a pipe cutter is recommended. By  means of this tool it is also possible to obtain the flaring useful during the insertion process. The insertion of the pipes into their locations must be done thoroughly,  ensuring the pipe penetrate as much as possible. Note The pipe and fittings used for the aspirating pipe system must comply with requirements of Class  1131 according to EN 61386-1 standard. In order to guarantee that the aspiration system pipes are perfectly sealed, the connection  between the pipes and the fittings must be carried out using the special sealant glue available  in packages of 250 ml (SGLUEN0250) or 500 ml (SGLUEN0500). To simplify maintenance and possible replacement operations, the final section of the pipeline  connected to the 1 and 2 aspiration pipe fitment (Description of parts, [H], [I]) and to the  exhaust pipe fitment (Description of parts, [J]) of the FA100 device must not be glued. 8.2.3 Installation of the 504F075ABS filter The 504F075ABS should be installed along the sampling pipe of aspirating smoke detection  systems, in the vicinity of the detector inlet. The maximum distance of the filter from the FA100 device is 2 m. Sampling holes must not be made in the section of piping between the FA100 device and the  filter. Note Protect from direct sunlight.

    In   order   to   maintain   the   efficiency   of   the   aspirating   smoke   detection   system,   it   is   recommended to carry out a series of checks and service operations every six months. The frequency of these maintenance sessions must be increased in the case of installations in  dusty environments, with frequent changes in temperature or with a high level of humidity. Scheduled service involves the operations described below (possibly in the order indicated):   Make sure the operations on the FA100 aspirating system described below do not lead to  any false alarm/fault signals on the fire detection system (activation of visual/audible  alarms, blocking, etc.)   Check for any active alarm or fault signals on the FA100   i nterface that are reported on  the fire control panel.   Check the functioning of the signalling LEDs on the front of the FA100 (long press the  “OK” button).   Check the events log for any alarm or fault messages. It is also recommended to read  the historical data (data log) with the FA/STUDIO software to check for any critical  issues (obscuration or flow values close to the alarm/fault thresholds).  ...

     the  table  provides  pre- calculated  programming  data,  to  be  entered  via  the  device   programming menu. The tables show, distributed over the rows, the number of branches and their lengths, divided  by intervals. “Length” is the distance the air drawn into the pipe travels from the most distant  hole to the detector. The columns show the required number of holes for each branch. The holes are numbered from  the nearest (hole #1) to the furthest (hole with maximum number) from the detector. Parameters In the boxes at the intersection of number/length of branches and number of holes are the  programming parameters to be used:   Holes diameter, in mm (“Ø”)   Detection sensitivity (depending on sampling hole balance, “S”)   Aspiration speed, in RPM (fan revolutions per minute, “V”)   Expected airflow, in l/min (“F”)   Balancing of the air aspiration between the holes (“B”)   Transit time of the smoke from the most distant hole to the detector (“T”) The calculation of this parameter is based on the length of the branches. Since the  length is indicated in the table as a range, the calculation is carried out using the  average length.

    Appendix B Pre-calculated installations These parameters, in addition to the length of the branches and the total length of the piping,  determine the validity of the system for the selected sensitivity class.   Conditions of The use of these tables requires the following constraints to be satisfied:   The pipe system connected to the detector is considered as divided into 1, 2 or 4  branches.   All the branches into which the installation is divided are equal to each other in terms of  length and number of holes. “Branch length” stands for the distance from the fork (T fitting) to the last hole (farthest  from the FA100 device).   The sampling holes must be equidistant from each other (with a 10% tolerance).   For each pipe line only one dust filter may be used, this must be positioned upstream of  the detector and downstream of any sampling holes.   For each line only one condensate trap may be used, this must be positioned upstream  of the detector and downstream of any sampling hole.   The length of the drain piping should not exceed 3 meters.   If both FAD100 detector modules are used for only one FA100, both pipes must have the  same class, same filter and condensate trap, the same number of branches, length and  number of holes. The sampling holes must be equidistant from each other (with a maximum tolerance of  10%).   The distance between the FA100 device and a T fitting must be at most 10% of the  branch length.   The ambient temperature must be between 10 and 40°C.
