SCOPE OF THIS MANUAL
This manual is intended as a guide for technicians to install, set up and provide preliminary system checks for the FAAST (Fire Alarm Aspiration Sensing
Technology) aspirating smoke detection system. Before installing, please read
the Comprehensive Instruction Manual for the FAAST aspiration detection system (available on PipeIQ CD or at SystemSensor.com/faast), which provides
detailed information on pipe design and system configuration.
INSTALLATION
This equipment must be installed in accordance with all local and national
codes and regulations.
PIPE INSTALLATION
The pipe layout is designed using the PipeIQ software package. Refer to the
Comprehensive Instruction Manual that comes with the PipeIQ software package to design the pipe network. All pipe must be installed in accordance with
local and national codes and regulations. The pipe network should be complete before proceeding with the physical and electrical system installation.
The performance of the system depends on the designed pipe network for
PHYSICAL UNIT INSTALLATION
the site. Any alteration to the pipe network will alter the performance of the
system and must be verified by a technician. The PipeIQ® design tool can
be used to verify the suitability of any pipe network design and subsequent
alterations. The PipeIQ software program is available from your distributor or
can be downloaded from systemsensor.com/faast.
Make sure that there are no pipes or electrical wires within the wall before
drilling any mounting holes.
Securing the Mounting Bracket
The typical mounting location for the FAAST unit is on a wall. The unit is
DESCRIPTION
The 8100 FAAST aspirating smoke detection system is an advanced particulate
detection system for use in early warning and very early warning applications.
The system continuously draws air from the controlled environment (up to
8,000 sq. ft.) through a series of sampling holes to monitor the environment
for smoke particulate.
FAAST system conditions are displayed at the user interface and at a fire alarm
control panel via relays. System conditions can also be displayed remotely in
two ways through the network interface: integrated Web server or PipeIQ software. The display provides a clear indication of the system status, particulate
levels, alarm levels, air flow and faults. Additionally, e-mail notification can be
sent upon status changes. These can all be discerned by monitoring the user
interface at either the local or remote display.
mounted to the wall using the enclosed mounting plate. Figure 1 shows the
wall mounting plate. For easier access to the FAAST unit, it is preferred to
position the mounting plate in an easily accessible location.
1. Place the mounting bracket on the wall in the desired location and use it as
a template to locate the necessary mounting holes.
2. Mark the hole locations and remove the bracket. It is recommended to
secure the bracket using the 4 outer mounting holes.
3. Using a drill and the proper size bit for your mounting hardware, drill the
necessary holes.
4. Use appropriate fasteners to accommodate the mounting surface and
FAAST device weight.
5. Secure the bracket to the wall.
FEATURES
• Advanced detection using blue LED and IR laser technology
• Monitors up to 8,000 sq. ft. (dependant on local code and ordinances)
• Wide sensitivity range of 0.00046% to 6.25% obs/ft.

Mounting the Detector to the Bracket
Po
Once the mounting plate is attached, the unit is ready to be mounted onto the
plate. Perform the following procedure to mount the unit.
1. Before installing the unit onto the bracket, remove the appropriate conduit cap from the top or bottom-left side of the unit to match the orientation of the wiring. See Figure 14 for location of the wiring access plugs.
2. Line up the unit with the four mounting clips and the mounting studs on
the left side.
3. Push the unit down onto the mounting clips and secure it with the supplied washer and nut on at least one of the two mounting studs protruding through the mounting slots shown in Figure 2.

Exhaust Pipe
The device should always be exhausted into the space that it is monitoring.
There are some circumstances when it may be necessary to connect a pipe to
the exhaust port to divert the exhaust away from the location of the unit. The
output ports are tapered the same as the input ports, to provide fast, easy,
push-fit connection of an exhaust pipe to the unit. Perform the following procedure to connect the exhaust pipe to the unit.
1. Square off and de-burr the end of the exhaust pipe. Ensure that the pipe
is free from any particles that might interfere with the pipe connection.
2. Remove the exhaust plug from the output port being used (either the top
or bottom of the unit).
3. Insert the exhaust pipe into the output port, ensuring a snug fit. DO NOT
glue these pipes.
WIRING
WARNING
Before working on the FAAST system, notify all required authorities that the
system will be temporarily out of service. Make sure all power is removed
from the system before opening the unit. All wiring must be in accordance
with local codes.
Power Cables
Use the power ratings of the unit to determine the required wire sizes for each
connection. Use the power ratings of the connected products to determine
proper wire size.
Conduit Usage
If electrical conduit is used for system wiring, terminate the conduits at the cable
entry ports on the top or bottom of the unit, using the appropriate conduit connectors.
1. Run all wiring, both power and alarm, through the conduit and into the
left side of the unit enclosure, as shown in Figure 3.
2. Attach the appropriate wires to the supplied Euro connector. Follow appropriate local codes and electrical standards for all cabling.
3. Plug the appropriate connector into the mating connector on the unit.

Connecting the Air Sampling Pipe
The input and output ports are designed to accept standard one inch pipe (25
mm) OD. The input ports are tapered to provide fast, easy, push-fit connection
of the sampling pipe to the unit. Perform the following procedure to connect
the air sampling pipe to the unit.
1. Square off and de-burr the end of the sampling air pipe. Ensure that the pipe
is free from any particles that might interfere with the pipe connection.
2. Remove the input plug from the input port being used (either the top or
bottom of the unit).
3. Insert the sampling air pipe into the input port, ensuring a snug fit.
DO NOT glue these pipes.

SYSTEM POWERING
The following procedure describes how to initially power up the FAAST system.
1. Unplug the unit’s power connector to the unit before turning ON the
power.
2. Turn on the power.
3. Check the voltage at the connector. Make sure it is within the required
voltage range.
4. If the voltage is within the proper range, reconnect the power connector
to the unit.
5. Verify the system fan starts up and air begins to flow out of the exhaust port.
6. Connect a computer, with the PipeIQ software installed, to the unit using
the Ethernet connection on the bottom of the unit.
