[1] General Description  
System Sensor supports this position and strongly recom-  
mends that the user read NFPA Standards 90A, 72, and 101.  
The DH100ACDCP Air Duct Smoke Detectors are listed per  
UL 268A.  
An HVAC system supplies conditioned air to virtually every  
area of a building. Smoke introduced into this air duct sys-  
tem will be distributed to the entire building. Smoke detec-  
tors designed for use in air duct systems are used to sense  
the presence of smoke in the duct.  
WARNING  
This device will not operate without electrical power. Fire  
situations may cause an interruption of power. The system  
safeguards should be discussed with your local fire protec-  
tion specialist.  
Model DH100ACDCP Air Duct Smoke Detector utilizes  
photoelectric technology for the detection of smoke. This  
detection method, when combined with an efficient hous-  
ing design, samples air passing through the duct and allows  
detection of a developing hazardous condition. When suf-  
ficient smoke is sensed, an alarm signal is initiated at the  
fire control panel monitoring the detector, and appropriate  
action can be taken to shut off fans, blowers, change over  
air handling systems, etc. These actions can facilitate the  
management of toxic smoke and fire gases throughout the  
areas served by the duct system.  
WARNING  
This device will not sense smoke unless the ventilation  
system is operating and the cover is installed.  
WARNING  
For this detector to function properly, it MUST be installed  
according to the instructions in this manual. Furthermore,  
the detector MUST be protected from the elements and  
operated within ALL electrical and environmental specifi-  
cations listed in this manual. Failure to comply with these  
requirements may prevent the detector from activating  
when smoke is present in the air duct.  
The DH100ACDCP detector is designed to operate on  
24 VDC/VAC, 120 VAC, or 240 VAC. Alarm and supervi-  
sory relay contacts are available for control panel interface  
(alarm initiation), HVAC control, and other auxiliary func-  
tions. Auxiliary relays are also provided for fan shut down

there are more than 2 holes in the section of the tube  
extending out of the duct, select a different length using  
Table 1. Otherwise, trim the end of the tube protruding  
through the duct so that 1to 2of the tube extend out-  
side the duct. Plug this end with the end plug and tape  
closed any holes in the protruding section of the tube.  
Be sure to seal the duct where the tube protrudes.

[5.4.1] Installation For Ducts Greater Than 112 Feet  
But Less Than 8 Feet Wide  
WARNING  
In no case should more than 2 air inlet holes be cut off the  
tube. There must be a minimum of 10 holes in the tube  
exposed to the air stream.  
1. If the tube is longer than the width of the air duct, drill a  
34hole in the duct opposite the hole already cut for the  
inlet tube. Make sure the hole is 1″ to 2″ below the inlet  
hole on the opposite side of the duct to allow moisture  
drainage away from the detector. If the tube is shorter  
than the width of the air duct, install the end plug into  
the inlet tube as shown in Figure 4. Sampling tubes over  
3 ft. long must be supported at the end opposite the duct  
smoke detector.  
[5.4.2] Installation For Ducts More Than 8 Feet Wide  
NOTE: To install inlet tubes in ducts more than 8 feet  
wide, work must be performed inside the air duct.  
Sampling of air in ducts wider than 8 feet is accom-  
plished by using the ST-10 inlet sampling tube. If  
the tube is shorter than the width of the air duct,  
install the end plug into the inlet tube as shown  
in Figure 4 and support the end opposite the duct

over the tube ends.  
2. Slide the inlet tube with the flange into the housing bush-  
ing that meets the air flow first. Position the tube so that Figure 6. Sampling tube filter installation:  
the arrows point into the air flow. Secure the tube flange  
to the housing bushing with two #6 self-tapping screws.  
3. From inside the duct, couple the other sections of the  
1
inlet tube to the section already installed using the 2-  
inch conduit fittings supplied. Make sure that the holes  
on both of the air inlet tubes are lined up and facing into  
the air flow.  
4. Trim the end of the tube protruding through the duct so  
that 1 to 2of the tube extend outside the duct. Plug this  
end with the end plug and tape closed any holes in the  
protruding section of the tube. Be sure to seal the duct  
A78-2106-01  
when the tube protrudes.  
CAUTION  
Filters require periodic cleaning or replacement, depend-  
ing on the amount of dust and dirt accumulated. Visually  
inspect the filters at least quarterly; inspect them more  
often if the dust accumulation warrants it. See Section [6]  
for more information. Replacement filters can be ordered  
from System Sensor, 3825 Ohio Ave., St. Charles, IL 60174.  
(Exhaust tube/intake tube filter P/N F36-09-00)  
NOTE: An alternate method to using the ST-10 is to use  
two ST-5 inlet tubes. Remove the flange from one  
of the tubes and install as described above. After  
the installation, use electrical tape to close off  
some of the sampling holes so that there are a  
total of 10 to 12 holes spaced as evenly as possible  
across the width of the duct.  
[5.6] Field Wiring Installation Guidelines  
NOTE: Air currents inside the duct may cause excessive  
vibration, especially when the longer sampling  
tubes are used. In these cases a 3 inch floor flange  
(available at most plumbing supply stores) may  
be used to fasten the sampling tube to the other  
side of the duct. When using the flange/connector  
All wiring must be installed in compliance with the  
National Electrical Code and the local codes having juris-  
diction. Proper wire gauges should be used. The conduc-  
tors used to connect smoke detectors to control panels and  
accessory devices should be color-coded to prevent wiring  
mistakes. Improper connections can prevent a system from  
responding properly in the event of a fire.  
1
mounting technique, drill a 1-inch to 14-inch hole  
where the flange will be used.  
For signal wiring, (the wiring between interconnected  
detectors or from detectors to auxiliary devices), it is usu-  
ally recommended that single conductor wire be no smaller  
than 18 gauge. The duct smoke detector terminals accom-  
modate wire sizes up to 12 gauge. The last foot of conduit  
should be flexible conduit (available in electrical supply  
houses), which facilitates easier installation and puts less  
strain on the conduit holes in the housing. Solid conduit  
connections may be used if desired.  
Smoke detectors and alarm system control panels have  
specifications for allowable loop resistance. Consult the  
control panel manufacturer’s specifications for the total  
loop resistance allowed for the particular model control  
panel being used before wiring the detector loop.  
[5.4.3] Modifications of Inlet Sampling Tubes  
There may be applications where duct widths are not what  
is specified for the installation. In such cases, it is permis-  
sible to modify an inlet sampling tube that is longer than  
necessary to span the duct width.  
Use a 0.193-inch diameter (#11) drill and add the appropriate  
number of holes so that the total number of holes exposed  
to the air flow in the duct is 10 to 12. Space the additional  
holes as evenly as possible over the length of the tube.  
NOTE: This procedure should only be used as a temporary  
fix. It is not intended as a permanent substitute for  
ordering the correct length tubes.

[6.2.3.1] MOD400 or MOD400R Test  
Figure 13. Testing detector alarm:  
After verification of alarm capability, use the MOD400R test  
module with a voltmeter to check detector sensitivity as  
indicated in the test module’s manual. The housing cover  
must be removed to perform this test.  
If test module readings indicate that the detector head is  
outside of the acceptable range that is printed on the label  
of the detector, the detector chamber requires cleaning per  
Section [7] of this manual.  
[7] Detector Cleaning Procedures  
A78-2325-00  
Notify the proper authorities that the smoke detector sys-  
tem is undergoing maintenance, and that the system will  
temporarily be out of service. Disable the zone or system  
undergoing maintenance to prevent unwanted alarms and  
possible dispatch of the fire department.  
[6.2.2.2] RTS451/RTS451KEY Remote Test Station  
The RTS451/RTS451KEY Remote Test Station facilitates  
test of the alarm capability of the duct smoke detec-  
tor as indicated in the RTS451/RTS451KEY manual. The  
DH100ACDCP duct smoke detector can be reset by the  
RTS451/RTS451KEY. If a system control panel is used, the  
panel itself may also require testing.  
To install the RTS451/RTS451KEY, connect the device as  
shown in Figure 9; wire runs must be limited to 25 ohms  
or less per interconnecting wire.  
Please note that the magnetic coil supplied with the  
RTS451 and RTS451KEY is not required when these  
accessories are used with the DH100ACDCP detectors.  
The functionality of the magnetic coil has been designed  
into the circuitry of the new Innovair™ duct smoke detec-  
tors.  
[7.1] Air Filters  
1. Turn off power to the system.  
2. Remove and inspect sampling tube filters.  
3. If filters are heavily coated with dirt, replace them with  
new filters. If they are not heavily coated, use a vacuum  
cleaner or compressed air nozzle to remove dust, then  
reinstall the filters.  
[7.2] Photo Detector Boards  
1. Remove the screen by gently grasping on each side and  
pulling straight off.  
2. Lift the photo chamber in the same fashion. Vacuum  
the screen and cover. Use clean, compressed air to  
loosen and blow out any remaining debris. Replacement  
screens (S08-39-01) are available.  
3. Vacuum photo chamber, then use clean compressed air
