Before Installing

Please thoroughly read the System Sensor manual I56-407,

Applications Manual for System Smoke Detectors, which

provides detailed information on detector spacing, place-

ment, zoning, wiring, and special applications. Copies of

this manual are available at no charge from System Sensor.

(For installation in Canada refer to CAN/ULC-S524, Stan-

dard for the Installation of Fire Alarm Systems, and CEC

Part 1, Sec. 32.)

NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user

of this equipment.

IMPORTANT: The detector used with this base must be

tested and maintained regularly following NFPA 72 require-

ments. The detector used with this base should be cleaned

at least once a year.

General Description

Models 1151 and 1151A ionization detectors use state-of-

the-art sensing chambers. These detectors are designed to

provide open area protection, and to be used with compat-

ible UL-listed control panels only. The capability of plug-

ging these detectors into a variety of special bases makes

them more versatile than equivalent direct-wired models.

D100-51-00

1.7 inches (43 mm)

4.0 inches (102 mm)

3.6 oz (102 g)

-10° to 60° C (14° to 140° F)

Note: Do not install in locations where normal ambient temperature range extends

beyond 0° to 49°C (32° to 120° F)

10% to 93% Relative Humidity, Noncondensing

Reset by momentary power interruption

Two LEDs on each detector light to provide a local 360° vis-

ible alarm indication. Remote LED annunciator capability

is available as an optional accessory. These detectors also

have the latching alarm feature. The alarm can be reset

only by a momentary power interruption. For testing, these

detectors have an internal magnetically activated reed

switch.

Spacing

Spacing of 30 ft. on a smooth ceiling as per NFPA 72.

Where conditions or response requirements vary, other

spacing may apply.

Base Selection and Wiring Guide

Refer to the installation instructions for the plug-in detector

bases for wiring instructions. System Sensor has available a

variety of detector bases for this smoke detector, including

2-wire applications with and without relays and/or current

limiting resistors, 4-wire and 120 VAC applications. (Note:

the 120 VAC detector base is not available in Canada.)

All bases are provided with screw terminals for power,

ground, remote annunciator connections, and relay contact

connections, if applicable. The electrical ratings for each

detector-base combination are also included in the base in-

stallation instructions.
