1400
System Sensor
Ionization Smoke Detector
Description
The System Sensor 1400 dual-chamber ionization smoke
detector is specifically designed to meet the performance
requirements of fire detection/alarm systems. This detec-
tor uses a state-of-the-art unipolar sensing chamber. The
detector is designed to provide open area detection and is
compatible with FCI fire alarm control panels. The detec-
tor operation and sensitivity can be tested in place.
The detector has an LED which flashes every ten seconds
indicating that power is being applied to the detector. The
LED lights steadily when the detector is in alarm. A re-
mote LED annunciator is available as an optional acces-
sory.
The 1400 detector includes a tamper-resistant feature
that, when used, prevents removal of the detector without
the use of a tool.
Sensitivity testing is performed by inserting a tool into the
recessed test switch opening.
Field metering of detector sensitivity may be performed
with the aid of a voltmeter and test kit MOD 400R.

Mounting
•
On a 4-inch square box with plaster ring and FCI
supplied mounting bracket kit. Minimum depth 1.5
inches.
•
On a 3.5 or 4-inch octagonal box.
Minimum depth 1.5 inches.
•
Directly to ceiling using plastic screw anchors.
Refer to N.F.P.A. 72, Chapter 2-3. “Smoke Sensing Fire
Detectors” for spacing, location of detectors and other
guidelines.

Installation
Line up the arrows on the detector with the arrows on the
mounting bracket. Turn the detector clockwise until the
detector clicks into place.
To use the tamper-proof feature, break the smaller tab at
the scribed line in the tamper-proof tab located on the
detector mounting bracket. Install the detector. To remove
the detector from the bracket when using the tamper-proof
feature, insert the blade of a small screwdriver into the
hole on the side of the base and push the plastic lever
away from the detector head. Turn the detector counter-
clockwise for removal. NOTE: The decorative ring must
be removed in order to remove a head after it has been
made tamper-proof.
NOTE: The number of two-wire smoke detectors which
can be accommodated per zone varies with different con-
trol panels. Consult the control panel instruction manual to
determine the capacity.
Testing
Detectors may be tested in the following ways:
•
A. Insert a tool into the test opening in the unit. For the
complete procedure, refer to the Installation and Main-
tenance Instructions furnished with each detector.
•
B. Field metering of detector sensitivity may be per-
formed with the aid of a voltmeter and test kit MOD
400R. For the complete procedure, refer to the Installa-
tion and Maintenance Instructions furnished with each
detector.
Maintenance
Cleaning programs should be adapted to the individual
environment in conformance with NFPA Standard 72. We
recommend, at the least, an annual cleaning of the unit.
The detector screen and cover assembly can be removed,
revealing the sensing chamber. A vacuum cleaner can be
used to remove dust from the screen, cover and sensing
chamber. For the complete procedure, refer to the Instal-
lation and Maintenance instructions furnished with each
detector.
WARNING:
To prevent detector contamination dur-
ing construction, smoke detectors must be protected
from dust and contamination until area is clean and
dust free. See NFPA 72-5-3.7.1.3.
