E-SDS-TAA

SMOKE DETECTION SENSOR

Installation Instruction

The E-SDS-TAA is a smoke detection sensor intended for connection to an NTI E-16D/5D/2D (ENVIROMUX) for use in detecting
smoke in a server cabinet environment. When properly connected, the E-SDS-TAA will provide signals to the ENVIROMUX that
with proper configuration will result in alert messages being sent to the administrator of the ENVIROMUX.

Features Include:

For warning of smoke.


 Photoelectric smoke detector.
 Built-in 135° F (57° C) thermal heat sensor.
 Includes mounting hardware.
 Connect to RJ45 or digital input sensor ports.
 Supports CAT5/5e/6 UTP or STP cables.
 Voltage Supply: 8-35VDC
 Current Consumption: 200uA
 Alarm Output: Relay (NO)
 Screw terminal

o To connect to the RJ45 inputs use CAT5/5e/6 cable terminated at one end with RJ45 connector. Connect the un-

terminated end to the sensor screw terminal.

 Maximum cable length: 1,000 ft (305 m)
 Powered by E-2D/5D/16D.
 Regulatory approvals: UL
 TAA compliant

Installation

1. Connect two 18-22 AWG wires (not supplied) from any set of “Digital In” terminals (see below and on next page) on the
ENVIROMUX.

2. Connect the other end of those two wires to the switch terminals “C” and “N/O” on the smoke detection sensor.

3. Connect two more 18-22 AWG wires between the “12V” and “ “ (ground) terminals on the ENVIROMUX and the “12VDC”

and “—“ terminals on the smoke detector. Leave the “24VDC” terminal unused.

4. Be sure to tighten terminal screws to secure each conductor to the terminal block.

5. Mount the E-SDS-TAA where smoke detection is desired.

Note: The E-SDS-TAA is NOT intended
to be used as a primary fire and smoke
detection device.

Alternative Power Supply

If the 12V power on the ENVIROMUX is
unavailable, connect the 12VDC AC adapter
(sold separately) as follows:

1. Connect the wire labeled “PLUS 12” to the

terminal marked “12VDC” on the smoke
detection sensor.

Note: DO NOT connect the 12VDC
adapter to the terminal labeled “24VDC”.

2. Connect the wire labeled “NEG” to the

terminal labeled “—“ (negative) on the smoke
detection sensor.

Alternative Sensor Connection

If a connection to an available “RJ45 Sensor”
input is desired, CAT5/5e/6 patch cable can
be used by cutting off one end and terminating
to the sensor as illustrated to the right.

Operation

1. When powered ON, the LEDs on the E-SDS-TAA will flash green (approximately once
per second) to indicate the sensor is functioning and in status-ready condition. The LEDs will
illuminate solid red when smoke is detected.

2. Configure the ENVIROMUX to report signals from the connected sensor as smoke detection
sensor alerts. (Refer to ENVIROMUX manual for details on configuration- see also example below.)
When smoke is detected, the switch terminals on the E-SDS-TAA will close to generate
an alert message from the ENVIROMUX.

For maintenance and testing instruction, see the instructions that are included from the sensor
manufacturer with this kit.

Example of sensor configuration in ENVIROMUX

In the event the smoke detector should be placed in alarm condition, it must be power-cycled in order to reset it. To quickly cycle
the power when connected to a Digital Input of an E-16D, go to the sensor status page in the ENVIROMUX WEB interface, and click
on the “Cycle Sensor Power” button. The 12VDC power will be disrupted to the sensor for 5 seconds and then automatically
restored.
