This sensor must be installed in compliance with the control panel sys-
tem installation manual. For local audible indication of a fire and/or car-
bon monoxide alarm, it is recommended to install the multi-criteria carbon
monoxide (CO) and smoke sensors into a APB200COA series sounder base. If a
local audible device is not used, care should be taken to develop a proper
response plan. The installation must meet the requirements of the Author-
ity Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Sensors offer maximum performance when in-
stalled in compliance with CAN/ULC S524 and CSA 6.19-01. For a complete
list of compatible bases, refer to the Base/Sensor Cross Reference Chart at
systemsensor.com.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
MIX-FC351APA is a plug-in type multi-criteria smoke sensor that offers a pho-
toelectric sensing chamber combined with a carbon monoxide (CO) sensor,
135°F (57.2°C) fixed temperature heat detector and infrared (IR) sensors, as
well as, a carbon monoxide detector. The MIX-FC351APA also transmits an
alarm signal due to heat (135°F/57.2°C) per CAN/ULC S530.
All sensors transmit an analog representation of smoke and/or carbon monox-
ide density over a communication line to a control panel. Rotary dial switches
are provided for setting the sensor's address. (See Figure 2.)
Two LEDs on the sensor are controlled by the panel to indicate sensor status.
An output is provided for connection to an optional remote LED annunciator
(P/N RA100ZA).
Mircom panels offer different features sets across different models. As a result,
certain features of the photoelectric sensors may be available on some control
panels, but not on others.
The multi-criteria CO and smoke sensor supports Advanced Protocol mode.
The possible features available in the multi-criteria CO and smoke sensors, if
supported by the control unit are:
1. The sensor's LEDs can operate in three ways—on, off, and blinking—and
they can be set to red, green, or amber. This is controlled by the panel.
2. The remote output may be synchronized to the LED operation or con-
trolled independent of the LEDs.
3. Devices are point addressable up to 159 addresses.
Please refer to the operation manual for the ULC listed control panel for spe-
cific operation. The photoelectric sensors require compatible addressable
communications to function properly. Connect these sensors to listed-compat-
ible control panels only.
SPACING
Mircom recommends spacing smoke detectors in compliance with CAN/ULC
S524. In low air flow applications with smooth ceilings, space sensors 30 feet
apart (9.1 m). For specific information regarding sensor spacing, placement,

and special applications, refer to CAN/ULC S524 and the System Smoke De-
tector Application Guide, available from Mircom. For specific information
regarding CO detector spacing, placement and special applications, refer to
NFPA 72, NFPA 720, CAN/ULC S524, and the System-Connected Carbon Mon-
oxide Detectors Application Guide also available from Mircom.
WIRING GUIDE
All wiring must be installed in compliance with the Canadian Electrical Code,
applicable local codes, and any special requirements of 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.
Improper connections will prevent a system from responding properly in the
event of a fire.
Remove power from the communication line before installing sensors.
1. Wire the sensor base (supplied separately) per the base wiring diagram.
(See Figure 1.)
2. Set the desired address on the sensor address switches. (See Figure 2.)
3. Install the sensor into the sensor base. Push the sensor into the base while
turning it clockwise to secure it in place.
4. After all sensors have been installed, apply power to the control panel and
activate the communication line.
5. Test the sensor(s) as described in the TESTING section of this manual.
