Before Installing

Please thoroughly read the System Sensor manual I56-407,

Guide for Proper Use of System Smoke Detectors, which pro-

vides detailed information on detector spacing, placement,

zoning, wiring, and special applications. Copies of this man-

ual are available at no charge from System Sensor. (For

installations in Canada, refer to CAN4-S524, Standard for the

Installation of Fire Alarm Systems, and CEC Part 1, Sec. 32.)

of this equipment.

IMPORTANT: The detector used with this base must be

tested and maintained regularly following NFPA 72 require-

ments. The detector used with this base should be cleaned

at least once a year.

General Description

The plug-in detector base B401BR is used with System

Sensor 400 Series photoelectronic, ionization, and heat

detector heads. The ability to accept a variety of detector

heads makes this base more versatile than equivalent

direct-wired models. Refer to the System Sensor catalog for

other available plug-in detector bases.

This B401BR base is intended for use in 2-wire systems,

with screw terminals provided for power, ground, and

remote annunciator connections. The B401BR base also

contains a resistor to provide current limiting in the alarm

state.

Mounting

This detector base mounts directly to 31⁄2inch and 4 inch

octagon boxes, and 4 inch square boxes (with or without

plaster rings). To mount, remove decorative ring by turning

it in either direction to unhook the snaps, then separate the

ring from the base.

Install the base to the box using the screws supplied with

the junction box and the appropriate mounting slots in the

base. Place decorative ring onto base, then turn in either

direction until the ring snaps in place (see Figure 1).

Installation Guidelines

All wiring must be installed in compliance with the

National Electrical Code and the local codes having juris-

diction. Proper wire gauges should be used. The conduc-

tors used to connect smoke detectors to control panels and

accessory devices should be color-coded to prevent wiring

mistakes. Improper connections can prevent a system from

responding properly in the event of a fire.

For signal wiring (the wiring between interconnected

detectors), it is recommended that the wire be no smaller

than 18 gauge (1.0 square mm). Wire sizes up to 12 gauge

wire (2.5 square mm) may be used with the base. For best

system performance, the power (+ and –) loop wires

should be twisted pair and installed in separate grounded

conduit to protect the loop from electrical interference.

Smoke detectors and alarm system control panels have

specifications for allowable loop resistance. Consult the

control panel manufacturer’s specifications for the total

loop resistance allowed for the particular model control

panel being used before wiring the detector loops.

For system supervision — For terminals 2, 3, and 5 do not

use looped wire under terminals. Break wire run to provide

system supervision of connections.

Wire connections are made by simply stripping insulation

from the end of the wire, sliding the bare end of the wire

under the clamping plate, and tightening the clamping

plate screw. Use the strip gauge molded into the base for

ease of wiring to terminals.

System Sensor smoke detectors and mounting bases are

marked with a compatibility identifier located as the last

digit of a five digit code stamped on the back of the prod-

uct. Connect detectors/mounting bases only to compatible

control units as indicated in System Sensor’s compatibility

chart which contains a current list of UL listed control units

and detector head/base combinations. A copy of this list is

available from System Sensor upon request.

SHORTING

SPRING

The zone wiring of the detector base should be checked

before the detector heads are installed in them. To make

this possible, this base contains a special spring-type short-

ing jumper. After a detector base is properly wired and

mounted on an electrical box, make sure that the jumper

spring is in contact with the base of Terminal 3. This tem-

porary connection shorts the negative-in and negative-out

leads and permits the wiring of the loop to be checked for

continuity.

Once all the detector bases have been wired and mounted,

and the loop wiring has been checked, the detector heads

may be installed in the bases. The shorting spring in the

base will disengage when the detector head is turned into

place.

Tamper-resist Feature

Do not use the tamper resist feature if the XR5 removal tool

is to be used.

This detector base also includes an optional tamper resist

feature that, when activated, prevents removal of the detec-

tor without the use of a tool.

To activate this feature, break the tab from the detector

base, as shown in Figure 3A, and install the detector. To

remove the detector from the base once the tamper resist

feature has been activated, insert a small-bladed screw-

driver into the slot in the side of the base and press the

plastic lever away from the detector head (see Figure 3B).

This allows the detector to be rotated counterclockwise and

removed.

Note: Head removal after the tamper resist feature has

been activated first requires removal of the decora-

tive ring.

The tamper resist feature can be defeated by breaking and

removing the plastic lever from the base. However, this per-

manently defeats the tamper resist feature.
