1. Complete housing base and cover assembly

2. Two #10 x 11/4″ sheet metal screws for mounting

3. Two sampling tube filters

4. One test magnet

5. Drilling template

6. Two foam gaskets

7. Four #6-self tapping mounting screws for the metal sampling tube and optional exhaust tube extension

8. One sampling tube end cap

9. One plastic sampling tube

10. One #8 self-tapping screw for the plastic sampling tube NOTE: For ducts over 11⁄2 feet, longer sampling tubes must be ordered to complete the installation. They must be the correct length for the width of the duct where they will be installed. See Table 1 on page 3 to determine the inlet tube required for different

duct widths.

[5]Installation Sequence

[5.1] Verify Duct Air Flow Direction And Velocity Model DH100ACDCLP 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 sampling tube. Make sure there are 6 exposed holes on the plastic sampling tube. Secure with the #8 self-tapping screw into the bottom of the permanent tube (shown in Fig. 2).

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].

[5.3] Secure The Detector Housing To The Duct

Slide the foam gaskets over the tube bushings as shown in Figure 3. Use the two 11/4″ long sheet metal screws to screw the detector housing to the duct.

CAUTION: Do not overtighten the screws.

DH100ACDCLP specifications

The System Sensor DH100ACDCLP is a cutting-edge addressable heat detector renowned for its advanced features and reliability in fire safety systems. Designed to meet various application requirements, this device excels in environments prone to false alarms while ensuring efficient fire detection.

One of the DH100ACDCLP’s main features is its advanced thermal sensing technology. This device utilizes a combination of fixed temperature and rate-of-rise sensing methods, allowing it to accurately detect abnormal heat levels in its surroundings. The fixed temperature feature triggers an alarm when the ambient temperature exceeds a predetermined threshold. Meanwhile, the rate-of-rise detection monitors rapid temperature increases, making it ideal for applications like kitchens, attics, and mechanical rooms where combustibles may not be immediately visible.

The DH100ACDCLP also incorporates an innovative addressable technology. This allows the device to communicate directly with the fire alarm control panel, providing precise location information and reducing response times during emergencies. By having each detector uniquely identified, facility managers can easily pinpoint which unit has triggered an alarm, streamlining response and ensuring the right areas are addressed swiftly.

Another notable characteristic of the DH100ACDCLP is its robust design, capable of operating in a variety of challenging environments. The unit is built to withstand temperatures ranging from -40°F to 150°F (-40°C to 66°C), making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor installations. Its resilient construction ensures longevity and durability, which is crucial for maintaining reliable fire safety measures over time.

Moreover, the DH100ACDCLP is compliant with various safety and performance standards. It obtained listings from UL and other recognized certification bodies, ensuring it meets strict criteria for fire detection capabilities. This compliance reinforces its credibility and effectiveness in safeguarding lives and property.

In addition to its technical features, the DH100ACDCLP is designed for straightforward installation and maintenance. Its user-friendly interface allows both installers and end-users to navigate settings and conduct routine checks with ease, ensuring that the system remains functional and reliable.

In summary, the System Sensor DH100ACDCLP stands out as a sophisticated heat detector, combining innovative thermal sensing technologies with an addressable communication system. This ensures precise detection, rapid response, and adaptability to various environments, all while maintaining compliance with safety standards. It is an indispensable component of modern fire detection systems, providing peace of mind to property owners and facility managers alike.
