Principle of Operation Each DS240 or DS241 beam smoke detector has a separate transmitter and receiver. The transmitter transmits an invisible infrared beam of a specific frequency and intensity. The receiver detects, then measures the beam’s intensity (see Figure 1). Figure 1 - Infrared Transmission As the beam is obscured by smoke, the receiver senses a decrease in the signal strength and measures that decrease. The receiver compares the signal level with two preset thresholds: an alarm threshold which is set using the sensitivity switch and a trouble threshold which is preset at approximately 10%. If the signal falls below the alarm threshold for the programmed alarm period, the receiver signals an alarm (see Figure 2). Figure 2 - Beam Obscuration If the signal falls below the trouble threshold for more than 20 sec, such as might happen if the beam is blocked by a foreign object, the receiver signals a trouble condition (see Figure 3). Figure 3 - Beam Blockage The receiver automatically compensates for the gradual loss of signal due to dust/dirt build-up on the cover. After 50 percent of the signal is lost, the receiver will indicate a trouble. When the dust/dirt build-up is cleaned or the blockage is removed, the detector automatically goes back to its normal operation level. A trouble will be indicated at the receiver if the beam strength is increased by more than 20% for greater than 20 sec. Causes include improper initial alignment or the removal of a partial beam blockage at the time of alignment. Preform a fine-tune alignment (see Section 7.3 Fine Tune Alignment on page 6). 4.0 4.2 Avoid sources of bright light Installation Considerations The proper location and spacing of detectors is critical in a properly installed and operating fire alarm system. For best results, it is recommended that the detectors be located and spaced in accordance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) Standard 72 "The National Fire Code.” This standard is available at a nominal cost from The National Fire Protection Association, Batterymarch Park, Quincy, MA, 02269. In all installations, good engineering judgement should prevail. The following are some general considerations: Sunlight and light from extremely bright sources such as the exposed bulbs of high pressure sodium, mercury vapor, and metal halide lights can cause stray signals. The receiver should not be pointed toward any of these sources. Sunlight: Avoid pointing the receiver directly at the rising or setting sun. If you are installing the unit where sunlight can’t be avoided, mount the receiver slightly higher than the transmitter and aimed down toward the transmitter. This should reduce this problem by causing the receiver to look below the horizon. Bright Lights: Don’t mount the receiver where it is looking at exposed bulbs of high pressure sodium, mercury vapor, and metal halide lights. The illustration below shows where these exposed lights should be avoided. • Do not use mirrors. The detectors should be installed with a clear line-of-sight between the transmitter and receiver. • The beam path should be clear of moving objects. • Set the sensitivity based on the distance between the transmitter and receiver. See Section 7.2 Sensitivity Adjustment on page 5. Keep bright lights out of this area 4.5 ft. (1.4 m) Receiver 14.5 ft. (4.4 m) 225 ft. (68.6 m) • The detectors may be mounted directly to the ceiling or to side walls. Do not mount the units where the beam path may run parallel within 4 in. (10.2 cm) of a corner. • For a sloped or peaked ceiling, the beam path should be located within 3 ft (1 m) of the ceiling’s peak. 350 ft. (106.8 m) Bare fluorescent lights may also pose a problem especially in long hallways where a series of lights run perpendicular to the beam. Incandescent lights are not a problem as long as they are not directly in the beam path. 4.3 Use the correct wire gauge and length • Stratification of air may hinder smoke from reaching detectors mounted close to the ceiling. Stratification occurs when smoke, rising because it is warmer than the surrounding air, reaches a level where it is the same temperature as the surrounding air and will not rise to the ceiling. If stratification is considered a possibility, extra beams should be installed where stratification is expected. Beam smoke detectors are often used to protect very large areas. This means that the wire runs used to power the detectors and signal alarm conditions can be very long. The voltage available at the end of very long wire runs may not be sufficient to power the detector, especially when the system is running on battery backup. It is very important that the correct wire gauge is used for these installations. • Avoid areas subject to normal smoke concentrations such as kitchens and garages. Use the following chart to determine the proper wire size, wire length and the number of transmitter and receiver pairs that can be used. • Do not install units where normal ambient temperatures are below -22°F (-30°C) or above +130°F (+54°C). Wire Siz e The following are some specific installation considerations: Wire Length 4.1 Avoid Sources of Heat and Air Movement The detectors should be located where the beam path will not pass near heating and cooling outlets. • Don’t mount where hot or cold air can blow directly into the beam path. • Heating, ventilating, and air conditioning systems can cause smoke to be blown away from the beam path. 500 ft (152 m) 1000 ft (304 m) 2500 ft (762 m) 5000 ft (1524 m) 14 AWG (1.8 mm) 16 AWG (1.5 mm) 18 AWG (1.2 mm) 20 pairs 10 pairs 4 pairs 2 pairs 13 pairs 6 pairs 3 pairs 1 pai r 8 pairs 4 pairs 2 pairs 1 pai r - Smoke must accumulate in the beam path to be detected. • Heaters mounted close to the beam path can cause the beam to become distorted. You can test for beam distortion by monitoring the signal voltage. After setup, the signal voltage of the detector should read 4 VDC. Monitor the voltage and turn on all heating and cooling devices in the area. The signal voltage should not fluctuate more than 0.20 VDC. If it does, the detector should be moved to avoid these disturbances. Page 2 P/N: 22066P © 2004 Bosch DS240/DS241 Installation Instructions 4.4 Provide a stable mounting surface 4.6 Consider the expected Fire load Beam smoke detectors depend on the measurement of the projected beam to sense smoke. Therefore, shifts in the alignment of the beam due to movement of the transmitter/receiver can cause trouble or alarm conditions. When designing a fire alarm system, consider the expected fire load within the application. • Always select a stable mounting surface. • Never mount the unit to a suspended support such as a pipe or length of wood supported at only one end. For instance, fires caused by the ignition of flammable petroleumbased liquids usually result in a rapid buildup of heavy smoke. When these types of fires are probable, use sensitivity settings 0 or 1 which provide a response time of 5 sec. 5.0 Mounting This type of mounting can create a “pendulum effect” which greatly multiplies even very small movements at one end of the support. For example, a 2 in. (5.1 cm) movement translates into a beam misalignment of over 20 ft at 350 ft (6 m at 107 m). NOTE: This product is not designed for use in outdoor applications. Mounting surfaces should be supported at opposite corners to reduce the pendulum effect. NOTE: If not mounting to an electrical box, be sure the surface will not be subject to movement or vibrations. For example: do not mount directly to a suspended ceiling without extra support. • Always select surfaces not subject to building movement. The automatic compensation circuits of the DS240 and DS241 will eliminate most problems created by normal building expansions and contractions. In some unusual circumstances, the walls and support structure may be subject to more significant movement due to the operation of heavy equipment, such as cranes, anchored to the top of the walls. When in doubt about mounting surface stability, measure the signal voltage of the detector. This voltage should be 4.0 VDC. Misalignment of the beam can cause this voltage to increase or decrease. The detector will indicate a trouble condition when the voltage increases to more than 4.8 VDC, or when it decreases to less than 2.0 VDC over a long period of time or to 0.4 VDC greater than 20 sec. For more information on reading this voltage, see Section 8.3 Reference Voltage Calibration on page 6). If movement of the mounting surface is suspected, relocate the detector to a surface that does not move or add supports to the mounting surface to prohibit movement. Install a 4 in. (10 cm) square or octagonal electrical box (not supplied) to a rigid surface that will not be subject to movement or vibrations. • Remove the receiver's access door (1 screw), then remove the cover (4 screws). See Figure 4. COVER MOUNTING SCREWS (4) ACCESS DOOR Figure 4 - Access Door and Cover • Remove the receiver’s backplate by removing the single mounting screw from the top of the circuit board carrier plate then separating the two plates (see Figure 5). REMOVE TO EXPOSE BACKPLATE • DO NOT over-tighten the mounting screws. When the detector is mounted to an electrical mounting box [4 in. (10 cm) square or octagonal], the mounting plate may bow as a result of the mounting box screw tabs being below flush with the top edges of the mounting box. Over-tightening the mounting screws bows the mounting plate inward at the bottom, causing the optics to aim low. Irregularities in the flatness of the mounting box edge surfaces or screw tabs will worsen this condition. Using only mounting boxes with flat, regular surfaces and properly formed screw tabs, and tightening the mounting screws to secure the mounting plate to 2 in./lb torque will minimize any misalignment caused by bowing of the mounting plate. 4.5 Consider the effects of stratification in cold environments In very cold environments such as unheated warehouses, smoke may cool very quickly and is less likely to rise to the ceiling. Consider additional units at lower mounting heights to help compensate for this situation. DS240/DS241 Installation Instructions MOUNTING SLOTS (4) DO NOT REMOVE WIRING ENTRANCE Figure 5 - Removing the Backplate • Bring wiring from the electrical box through the wire entrance.

This allows the transmitter to power up while its cover is off. AIM MODE BUTTON Remote Indicator Plate The DIS2000 Remote Indicator Plate is shipped with the DS240/ DS241 as a standard accessory. Although the Remote Indicator Plate is not required, the manufacturer recommends its installation to provide a means of checking the condition of the detector from ground level. NOTE: The DIS240 remote indicator should be located no further than 100 ft (31 m) from the receiver and wired with 18 AWG (1.2 mm) or larger wire. The DIS2000 may be wired up to 500 ft (152 m) from the receiver. Page 4 P/N: 22066P Green NOTE: If connecting a DIS240 Remote Test/Indicator Plate, consult the DIS240 Installation Instructions (P/N: 24171). NOTE: Resetting from a fire alarm requires power to the receiver to be interrupted for at least one second. If not provided by the fire panel, it can be accomplished by installing a switch in series with Terminal 9. If a DIS2000 or DIS240 Remote Indicator Plate will be used, install the Remote Indicator Connector to the receiver now (see Figure 7).

To reset the unit, temporarily remove power. • Press the receiver’s Set-up button located just below the P6/test cable connection (see Figure 15). Press only if the covers are on both transmitter and receiver. - This starts a one to two minute automatic internal setup process that results in a reference voltage for measuring beam blockages. LEDs Setup Button Figure 14 - TC2000 Connection - Temporarily disconnect the Remote Indicator Plate connector, if installed. - The red and yellow LEDs should turn off, and the green LED will turn on steady. After some voltage fluctuations, the meter should settle at 5.0 VDC. • Connect a 20,000 Ohm/volt (or greater) DC VOM to the black (–) and red (+) leads of the TC2000. - Set meter scale so that readings of 0.0 to 5.0 VDC can be read. NOTE: Be careful not to block the beam or move the units during this time. • Check the three LEDs on the receiver. - If the beam is being received by the receiver, the green LED should be flashing, and the red and yellow LEDs should be on steady. - If the green LED is on steady, the beam is not reaching the receiver. If this is the case, the preliminary alignment procedure should be attempted again. • Observe the meter readings and adjust the receiver’s optical module using the Horizontal and Vertical Fine Tuning adjustment screws for a maximum reading on the meter. This is the most critical process of alignment. For the most effective operation of this system, the peak voltage during fine tune alignment must be obtained. NOTE: When performing fine tune alignment, keep arms and hands away from the front of the receiver and out of the beam path. • The maximum voltage peaked reading will vary depending on the distance between the transmitter and receiver. The acceptable peaked voltage range is 0.50 to 5.00 V. The voltage at the receiver is greater at shorter distances. It is very important to peak the voltage to insure a stable trouble free detector. Hint: Make a note of the alignment voltage. It may be helpful if future troubleshooting is necessary. • After completing the fine tune alignment, remove the test cable, then replace and secure the receiver's cover. • Check the status of the receiver’s green LED. It should still be flashing. • With the meter still connected to the test cable, re-install the test cable to P6 through the opening in the cover (red lead towards center of unit). Page 6 P/N: 22066P Figure 15 - The Receiver's Set-up Button - At the end of the setup period, the receiver’s green LED will flash, and the voltage will drop to between 3.8 and 4.2 VDC. This is a reference voltage that later readings can be compared to when determining the need for cleaning. • If the voltage is not between 3.8 VDC and 4.2 VDC, push the Setup button again. • After set-up is complete, remove the test cable (and reconnect the Remote Indicator Plate connector if used). • Replace and secure the access door. 8.0 Other Information 8.1 Fire Alarm Reset To reset the receiver after a fire alarm has occurred, remove power from the receiver for at least one second, then re-apply (see also, Section 8.4 Power Outage on page 7). 8.2 Cleaning At least once a year, the outside of the covers should be cleaned with a common window cleaner and a soft, clean cloth. Under normal conditions, this should not result in a trouble alarm as long as the beam is not continuously blocked for more than 18 sec. After cleaning, recheck the reference voltage. If the voltage is less than 3.8 VDC, or greater than 4.2 VDC, calibrate the units (see Section 8.3 Reference Voltage Calibration). 8.3 Reference Voltage Calibration The reference voltage of the detectors should be checked at least once a year (or more often if required by local regulations or authorities having jurisdiction). Clean covers are necessary for proper reference voltage readings. © 2004 Bosch DS240/DS241 Installation Instructions To check the reference voltage, remove the receiver's access door and measure the reference voltage, using the supplied test cable, or measure the voltage at the DIS240 Remote Indicator Plate (if used). If the voltage is less than 3.8 VDC, remove the cover and perform a fine tune alignment including use of the Set-up switch. If above 4.2 VDC, press the Set-up button. Calibration is not necessary if the voltage is between 3.8 VDC and 4.2 VDC. 4.0 8.4 Power Outage 2.0 When power is removed, then reapplied to the receiver (such as in a power outage or alarm reset), the original reference voltage information is lost. 1.5 If the cover is on at the time of power-up, the receiver will automatically restart the internal set-up process (to get a new reference voltage) when power is applied. If the cover is off, the Set-up button will have to be pressed after the cover is reattached. 0.5 30% 40% 20% 0.0 UL Maximum Sensitivity 3.5 3.0 2.5 UL Minimum Sensitivity 1.0 30 (9m) 50% 80 (24m) 60% 130 (40m) 70% 230 (70m) 180 (56m) 280 (85m) 330 (100m) Distance Between Transmitter and Receiver 8.5 Remote Indicator Plate Connector Momentarily connecting the orange and black leads of the connector (see Figure 16) will produce a test alarm.

Figure 18 - Sensitivity Pot/Obscuration Chart Each wire is current limited to a maximum of 10.0 mA DC. 8.6 Smoke Density/Obscuration Information 8.7 Field Sensitivity Measurements The total obscuration of the infrared beam is dependent upon the density and width of the smoke cloud along the beam path. As the width of the smoke cloud increases along the beam path, less dense smoke will be needed for an equal obscuration of the beam path. In practice, the smoke cloud is assumed to be the entire distance of the beam path; therefore, the total obscuration required for alarm should be selected by setting the Sensitivity Pot Setting as recommended in Section 7.2 Sensitivity Adjustment on page 5. The detectors automatically compensate for the effects of dust or dirt accumulation on the covers and for component aging. The NFPA requires that the detector's sensitivity be measured in the field, and requires that these measurements be made within one year after initial installation and every alternate year thereafter (reference NFPA 72). A TK240 Test Kit should be ordered to test the unit’s sensitivity in the field. The chart (Figure 19) below represents alarm information for the filters in the TK240 as well as the Sensitivity Test Kit provided with the units. Since the total obscuration of the beam by smoke increases with distance between the units (because more smoke will be within the beam path), the detector can be made less sensitive as the distance increases. Additionally, the sensitivity of the detector should be made less at greater distances because obscuration by other contaminants such as dust increases. The sensitivity should be set to respond to the proper smoke obscuration and also to reduce the chance of a false activation. As shown in Figure 17, if the expected smoke density is 0.5 percent per ft (per 30 cm), the obscuration at 50 ft (15 m) is 20 percent and at 250 ft (95 m) it is 73 percent.

For field testing, the TK240 must be used. Each filter decreases the detector’s signal by a defined amount. When each filter is placed in front of the receiver’s optical module for at least 30 sec (5 sec for position 0 or 1), the approximate sensitivity setting of the installed detector can be determined by the detector's response as shown in Figure 19 on page 7. NOTE: Testing these detectors will activate a fire alarm. Be sure to inform all concerned personnel before performing and testing. 8.8 FCC Compliance Notice This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a class B digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
