INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

FW4-H and FW2-H

These installation instructions are for the FW-4, FW4-H, FW-2 and the FW2-H FIREWOLF Smoke Detectors.

CAUTION!!!

Install this and all life safety devices in accordance with applicable NFPA standards, local codes, and the authorities having jurisdiction. Failure to follow these instructions may result in failure of the detector to initiate an alarm condition. Napco Security Systems, Inc. and the original equipment manufacturer, are not responsible for detectors that have been improperly installed, tested, or maintained.

For testing and cleaning information, refer to these instructions and/or call the NAPCO fax request line at [phone]. Also refer to NFPA-72 Chapter 5 for Automatic Fire Detectors for installation guidelines and Chapter 7 for testing and maintenance requirements.

Use “3M” Weatherban # 606 non-flammable sealing compound to seal field wiring conduit openings in the mounting back box. Compliance with this request may reduce the occurrence of the “STACK EFFECT”.

Note: When mounting detector on a wall, it must be between 4” and 12” from the ceiling.

Wiring: Connect wiring to the bases as shown in the wiring diagrams that follow. Detectors may be mixed on the same initiating loop as long as the number of two-wire powered detectors does not exceed the specifications of the control panel. See Specification Table above.

CAUTION: Connect wiring to terminals as shown. Do not loop wire under terminals. Break wire run to provide supervision.
