5809SS Wireless Rate-of-Rise Heat Detector – Installation Instructions

General Information

The Honeywell 5809SS Rate-of-Rise Heat Detector is a wireless device used with alarm systems that support Honeywell’s 5800 series devices.

The 5809SS combines a rate-of-rise sensor and a fixed temperature sensor in one device. The rate-of-rise sensor detects a rapid rise in temperature and signals an alarm if the rise is 15F (8C) or more per minute. Fires typically cause a rapid rise in temperature in the surrounding area. The fixed temperature sensor will signal an alarm when the ambient temperature rises above 135F (57C).

IMPORTANT: The 5809SS will be permanently damaged if stored, shipped, or installed in environments where the temperature exceeds 100F (38C). If the metal disc is detached, the detector has exceeded 135F (57C) and must be replaced.

Heat detectors should be used for property protection. Reliance should not be placed solely on heat detectors for life safety. When life safety is involved, smoke detectors MUST also be used.

Detectors MUST NOT be painted.

Notes:

•It is not recommended to install at a site where the ambient temperature exceeds 100F (38C).

•UL: Unit is for dry, indoor use only.

•If the fixed temperature sensor activates, the detector must be replaced.

•When the battery voltage drops below a threshold, a low battery signal is sent to the control panel.

•The 5809SS includes a tamper switch. If removed from its mounting base, a trouble signal is sent to the control panel.

•Detectors should never be relocated without the advice or assistance of the alarm service company.

•Replace the battery when the system reports a low battery condition.

1Install the Battery

1.If the 5809SS is already mounted, remove the detector assembly by twisting counter-clockwise and withdraw it from the mounting base. DO NOT touch the metal disc.

2.Remove the old battery and wait 30 seconds.

3.Install or replace battery with a Duracell DL123A, Panasonic CR123A, or HUIDERUI CR123A. Observe polarity!

NOTE: Constant exposure to high or low temperature or high humidity may reduce battery life.

2Program the Detector

NOTE: The detector’s serial number is located inside the detector. This number must be enrolled in the control panel. Refer to the control panel’s installation guide for details.

1.Remove the detector assembly by twisting counter-clockwise and withdraw it from the mounting base. DO NOT touch the metal disc.

2.Install the battery (if not already installed). Observe polarity!

3.Enter the control panel’s programming mode. When programming this device, program the following:

Input Type = 3 (Supervised RF)

Loop number = 1

4.To enable the control panel to capture the detector’s serial number, when prompted force the detector to transmit by momentarily depressing the RF TEST button. Alternately, you can manually enter the detector’s serial number.

5.Test the detector after enrolling into the system. Refer to the Testing the Detector topic.
