General Monitors Installation 3.4 Detector Location Considerations There are no standard rules for detector placement since the optimum location is different for each application. The customer Figure 11 indicates where the power must evaluate conditions at the detector site connections for the chassis are made. in order to make this determination.
4.1 General Maintenance 4.3 Electrical Outputs Once the Model TA402A has been installed, The electrical outputs on the Model very little maintenance is required other than TA402A consist of relay contacts, open periodic checks to verify the integrity of the collectors and an analog current signal.
In addition, the Fault Condition associated alarm outputs and the unaccept outputs COPM Fault (FL310X only) (TA402A, UA open collector & FM002A, UA Safe Condition relay) will activate, unless they are already IR Presence (FL3000, FL3100 only) activated. The flashing front panel alarm LED...

Model TA402A will activate the Fault circuit while the unit is in the Inhibit Mode. An nA selection specifies that the Model TA402A will not activate its Fault circuit when the unit is placed in the Inhibit Mode (see section 5.3). An...
STEADY FOR SETUP MODE Fig ure 25 When the Setup Mode is complete, the Fig ure 24 Model TA402A will automatically enter the Setup Check Mode. This allows the operator to view the newly selected options. The unit will return to normal operation after completing the Setup Mode and the Setup Check Mode.
Pressing the Mode/Select switch while In is displayed, will cause the unit to enter the Inhibit mode by inhibiting the alarm outputs. After the Model TA402A has entered the Inhibit mode, pressing the Mode/Select switch causes the unit to return to normal operation.
6.1 Flame Detectors There are 6 Flame Detectors designed for use with the Model TA402A. Each detector has unique features and advantages: FL3000 UV/IR Flame Detector The FL3000 (figure 26) has a very high...
Model TA402A Detector Assembly/Accessories FL3100 UV/IR Flame Detector The FL3100 (figure 29) has a very high degree of discrimination when it comes to identifying UV and IR radiation sources. Only the correct combination of each type of radiation will signal a fire.
