WARNING
For this detector to function properly, it MUST be installed according to the instructions in this manual. Furthermore, the detector MUST be protected from the elements and operated within ALL electrical and environmental specifi- cations listed in this manual. Failure to comply with these requirements may prevent the detector from activating when smoke is present in the air duct.
[4]Contents Of The Duct Smoke Detector Kit

2. Two #10 x 11⁄4” sheet metal machine screws for mounting
3. Two sampling tube filters
4. One test magnet
5. Drilling template
6. Two foam gaskets
7. Four
8. One sampling tube end cap
9. Metal sampling tube end plug
10. One plastic sampling tube
11. One #8
ent duct widths.
[5]Installation Sequence
[5.1] Verify Duct Air Flow Direction And Velocity Model DH100LP detectors are designed to be used in air handling systems having air velocities of 100 to 4000 feet per minute. Be sure to check engineering specifications to ensure that the air velocity in the duct falls within these parameters. If necessary, use a velocity meter (anemom- eter) to check the air velocity in the duct.
[5.2] Drill The Mounting Holes
Remove the paper backing from the mounting template supplied. Affix the template to the duct at the desired mounting location. Make sure the template lies flat and smooth on the duct. Center punch holes A and B. Drill the holes as indicated on the template.
[5.2.1] Sampling Tube Installation for Ducts Less Than 11⁄2 Feet Wide (see Figure 2)
1.Remove the front cover.
2.Slide the plastic sampling tube into the housing bushing.
3.Align the holes in the bushing with the holes in the sam- pling tube. Make sure there are six exposed holes on the plastic sampling tube. Secure with the #8
NOTE: The sampling tube end cap is critical to the proper operation of the duct smoke detector. The end cap is needed to create the proper air flow to the sensor of the duct smoke detector.
NOTE: For ducts greater than 11⁄2 feet in width, refer to sections [5.4.1] and [5.4.2].
