Before Installing  
Two LEDs on each detector light to provide a local 360°  
visible alarm indication. They flash every ten seconds indi-  
cating that power is applied and the detector is operating  
properly. The LEDs light continuously in alarm. Remote  
LED annunciator capability is available as an optional  
accessory. These detectors also have the Latching Alarm  
feature. The alarm can be reset only by a momentary power  
interruption. These detectors may be tested by activating  
the internal reed switch with a magnet, or by inserting a  
calibrated test card in a test slot after removing the detec-  
tor cover.  
Please thoroughly read the System Sensor publication,  
A05-1003, Applications Guide for System Smoke Detectors,  
which provides detailed information on detector spacing,  
placement, zoning, wiring, and special applications. Copies  
of this guide are available at no charge from System Sensor.  
(For installations in Canada, refer to CAN4-S524, Standard  
for the Installation of Fire Alarm Systems and CEC Part 1,  
Sec. 32.)  
NOTICE: This manual should be left with the owner/user  
of this equipment.  
The 2451 has been approved for marine use in dry locations  
by Underwriters Laboratory, Inc. The detector is to be used  
in dry interior locations only.  
IMPORTANT: This sensor must be tested and maintained  
regularly following NFPA 72 requirements. This sensor  
should be cleaned at least once a year.  
General Description  
Base Selection and Wiring Guide  
The 2451 photoelectronic detectors utilize state-of-the-art,  
optical sensing chambers. These detectors are designed to  
provide open area protection, and to be used with compat-  
ible UL-listed control panels only. Model 2451TH has the  
same specifications as Model 2451, with the addition of  
a built-in fixed temperature (135°F–57°C) thermal detec-  
tion unit. The capability of plugging these detectors into  
a variety of special bases makes them more versatile than  
equivalent direct-wired models.  
Refer to the installation instructions for the Plug-in  
Detector Bases for base selection and wiring instructions.  
System Sensor has a variety of detector bases available for  
this smoke detector. This includes 2-wire applications with  
and without relays and/or current limiting resistors, 4-wire  
and 120VAC applications. (Note: the 120VAC detector base  
is not available in Canada.)  
All bases are provided with screw terminals for power,  
ground, remote annunciator connections and relay contact  
connections, if applicable. The electrical ratings for each  
detector-base combination are also included in the base  
installation instructions.

Testing  
E. Direct Heat Test (2451TH only)  
Before testing, notify the proper authorities that the smoke  
detector system is undergoing maintenance and will tem-  
porarily be out of service. Disable the zone or system  
undergoing maintenance to prevent unwanted alarms.  
To test the bi-metallic thermal collector, aim a heat source,  
such as a low powered heat gun or blow dryer, across the  
detector. Hold the heat source about 12 inches (30 cm)  
from the detector to avoid damaging the plastic.  
Detectors must be tested after installation and periodic  
maintenance. To test the 2451:  
NOTE: Before testing the detector, check to ensure that  
When the temperature rises to greater than 135°F  
(57°C), the detector should latch into the alarm. The  
bi-metallic collector automatically resets after the test.

B. Calibrated Test Card (System Sensor no. R59-18-00)  
1. Remove the detector cover by placing a small bladed  
screwdriver in the side slot of the detector cover,  
twisting it slightly until the cover can be turned  
counterclockwise for removal.  
TEST SLOT  
2. Insert the NO ALARM end of the test card fully into  
the test slot (see Figure 2) then slide it counterclock-  
wise until it stops.  
3. Wait for at least 20 seconds. The detector should NOT

Maintenance  
3. Remove the screen by pulling it straight out (see Figure  
2). Vacuum the inside.  
It is recommended that the detector be removed from its  
mounting base to facilitate easier cleaning. The detector is  
cleaned as follows:  
4. Clean the vaned chamber piece by vacuuming or blow-  
ing out dust and particles.
