FireClass 601PH User Manual

GENERAL FEATURES
The 601PH detector forms part of the series 600 range of plug in detectors for ceiling mounting. 601PH detectors react to the complete range of fire products, from sl ow smoldering fires , producing vi sible par ticles to open flaming fires producing large numbers of very hot smaller sized aerosols. The combination of optical and heat technolog y allows detection of clear burning fire products wh ich until now could o nly be detected by ion-chamber detectors. For normal ambient conditions 601PH will behave as a norma l optical smoke detector, only when a r apid rise in temperat ure is detected does the sensitivity of the detector increase and the presence of smoke will confirm a fire condition which will be transmitted as an alarm level. The 601 PH design incorporates a unique “mousehole” optical chamber with an unrivaled signal to noise ratio providing high resilience to dust and dirt which means reduced servicing cost. In addition a unique chamber cover actually draws slow moving smoke into the chamber to provide a more responsive detector.
OPERATING PRINCIPLE Smoke detection
The 601PH detects visible particles produced in fires by using the light scattering properties of the particles.
The optical system consist of an emitter and receiver, so arranged that their optical axes cross in the sampling volume. The emitter produces a narrow beam of light which is prevented from reaching the sensor directly by the baffles. When smoke is present in the sampling vol­ume, a proportion of the light is scattered, some of which reaches the receiver. For a given type of smoke, the light reaching the sensor is proportional to the smoke density. The amplified output from the sensor is used to activate an alarm circuit at a predetermined threshold.
Thermal measuring system
The thermal mesuring system is designed to detect the presence of horizontally moving hot air draughts moving across the ceiling which occour in a fast burning fire. The system consist of two fast responding negative temperature thermistors. A sensing thermistor is located above the labyrinth under the cover in the airstream and will detect any sudden changes in the air temperature or draughts of hot air moving across the ceiling. The second thermistor is located out of the airflow , but still within the smoke labyrinth and has a longer time costant and is

used as a temperature reference to compare the sensing thermistor against. At a given temperature differential between the two thermistors, the comparator will switch and increase the gain of the amplifier, thereby increasing the sensitivity of the smoke sensor. Fins located on the top of the labyrinth are designed to increase air turbulence and the efficiency of the sensing thermistor.
WIRING
The detector circuits requires a p ositi ve an d n egative su pply a nd these are wired to t erminals L1 and L on the base (Polarity insensitive). Base terminal L2 is connected to base terminal L1 when the detector is fitted to provide continuity monitoring through the detector. Base terminals L2 and L provide outputs to the next detector or EOL device. In case of alarm the detector comunicate the stat e to control device b y sinking from the supply le ads an extra current accord­ing to the figure 3, for restoring from a n alarm condition the power has to be removed for 2-5 seconds. A drive is provided for a remote indicator connected b etween suppl y + and t erminal R, there fore at a det ector where remot e indicator is connected, the polarity of the supply must be known.
INSTALLATION
The 601PH is designed to become enanched by detecting a rapid rise (>10°C) in air moving horizontally across the ceiling. Siting sensor in positions where air is being blown through the detector should ther efore be pa rticul ary avo ided, eg. cl ose to ceiling ducts or ceiling mounted industrial heaters or areas of forced ventilations.
MAINTENANCE
The length of time between service for each detector will depend upon the environment into which they are installed. It is recommended to Inspect, test and clean the detector at least annually. The detector must be removed for service replacement typically each 5 years (up to 10 years subject to environment).
