Mounting Considerations
Detectors are typically mounted on the ceiling.
However, if detectors are mounted on a wall, they
must be at least 4 in. (10.2 cm), but no more than
12 in. (30.5 cm), below the ceiling. When other
devices containing magnets or producing magnetic
fields (for example, loudspeakers) are present in the
area, the base must be at least 1 ft (30 cm) from these
devices to prevent unwanted activation of the test
switch.
For UL Listing requirements, the spacing between heat
detectors should be no more than 50 ft (15.24 m).
Wiring Considerations
The control panel communicates to the detectors via
the analog addressable loop (SLC), which allows the
use of standard non‑twisted, non‑shielded wiring.
The following wire gauges were tested and approved:
Wire Gauge Maximum length
18 AWG (ISO 0.75 mm
2
) 4000 ft (1200 m)
16 AWG (ISO 1.5 mm
2
) 6225 ft (1900 m)
14 AWG (ISO 2.5 mm
2
) 7200 ft (2200 m)
12 AWG (ISO 4 mm
2
) 9850 ft (3000 m)
Remote Indicator
If a remote indicator is used in the circuit, it must be
no more than 10 ft (3 m) from the base.
