Mounting Considerations; Glassbreak Detector (El-2606) - Electronics Line CommPact Installation Manual

Appendix B: Transmitter Installation
11. Mount the back cover to the wall using two screws and replace the PCB. Use ISO 7050
(ST3.5 x 22), #6 X ¾ or similar countersunk screws so that the screw head will not touch
the PCB.
12. Connect the terminal block as follows: 1 ‐ Alarm; 2 ‐ GND.
13. Test the transmitter, making certain that the LED is lit during transmissions.
14. Close the front cover of the EL‐2602.
EL‐2602 complies with EN‐50131 2‐6 Grade 2 Class II Power Supply Type C.

Glassbreak Detector (EL-2606)

The EL‐2606 is an intelligent acoustic glassbreak detector with an incorporated wireless transmitter.

Mounting Considerations

The EL‐2606 acoustic detector is omni‐directional, providing 360º coverage. The coverage is
measured from the detector to the point on the glass farthest from the detector. The detector can be
mounted as close as 1m from the glass.
Figure B- 18: Acoustic Detector Range Measurement (Plate, Tempered, Laminated And Wired Glass)
Detector range:

If mounting on the ceiling, the opposite wall or adjoining walls, the maximum range
is 6m (20ʹ) for plate, tempered, laminated and wired glass.

For armor‐coated glass, the maximum range is 3.65m (12ʹ).
Minimum recommended glass size:

0.3m x 0.6m (1ʹ X 2ʹ)
Glass thickness:

Plate: 2.4mm to 6.4mm (3/32ʺ to 1/4ʺ)

Tempered: 3.2mm to 6.4mm (1/8ʺ to 1/4ʺ)

Wired: 6.4mm ( 1/4ʺ))

Laminated: 3.2mm to 6.4mm (1/8ʺ to 1/4ʺ)
For best detection:

The detector must always be in direct line of sight of all windows to be protected.

If mounting on the wall, try to install the detector directly opposite the protected
window. If this is not possible, adjoining side walls are also a good location.

If mounting on the ceiling, install the detector 2‐3m (6ʹ‐10ʹ) into the room.

Avoid installing in rooms with lined, insulating or sound deadening drapes.

Avoid installing in rooms with closed wooden window shutters inside.
