Installation Considerations

Proper location of detection devices is one of the most critical factors in a fire alarm system.

Here are some general considerations:

•Do not install smoke detectors in “dead air” spaces or close to ventilating or air-conditioning outlets because smoke might be circulated away from the detector. Locations near air inlets are favored.

•Avoid areas subject to normal smoke concentrations such as kitchens, garages, or near fireplaces.

•Do not install smoke detectors where normal area temperatures are above 38 °C (100 °F) or below 0 °C (32 °F).

•Avoid areas of high humidity and dust concentrations.

•Install ceiling-mounted detectors so the edge is no closer than 10 cm (4 inches) from any wall.

•Place the top edge of wall mounted detectors from 10 to 30 cm (4 to 12 inches) from the ceiling.

7.9Emergency Keypad Alarms/ Silencing Alarms

The Emergency Alarm Keys [], [], and [] can generate Fire, Special Emergency, and Panic Alarms if programmed by the installer. Ask your installing company to explain the function of these keys. To use an Emergency Key, you must press the button for two seconds to generate an alarm. Use the Disarming Command Sequence to cancel or silence these alarms.

If the Emergency Alarm Keys are to be used, label the keys to signify their functions.

Label the left-most key as the Fire key. This is the only key that can be designated as the Fire key.

Label the middle key as the Special Emergency key.

Label the right-most key as the Panic key.

On RF keyfobs, the Panic signal is sent to your security system when two keys are held down simultaneously for at least three seconds.
