Pipe Network Components

1.10.1

CVPC Pipes

Simplex 4098-XAD-100/110 Product Guide

CPVCpipes are used in pipe network installations. For compliance, the pipe should have a nominal outer diameter (OD) of 1.05
in. (26.7 mm). The sample pipe is normally supplied in 15 ft (4.57 m) lengths and is cut as required and joined by solvent welded
sockets (permanent), or socket unions (removable).
Note: The inlet port is tapered to allow a push fit of the sampling pipe. The pipe should be cut squarely to ensure a good, airtight
seal. Solvent adhesive should not be used for this joint. Using adhesive on the inlet and outlet port connections will void
the warranty of the detector.

1.10.2

Flexible Tubes

Flexible tubes are used in duct applications or in places where conventional CPVC pipes cannot be easily installed. It is
recommended that 5/8" (15.9 mm ) OD, 1/2" (12.7 mm) ID Polyethylene flexible piping is used with an adapter to enable
connection into the inlet port of the detector.

1.10.3

Fixings

The normal fixing methods are pipe clips, saddle clamps or cable ties. Fixing centers are typically 4.9ft(1.5 m) apart

1.10.4

Sampling Holes

Sampling Holes for Open Area Applications


The sampling holes are drilled in the CPVC pipes during installation.
Sampling Holes for Duct Applications
The sampling probes or exhaust pipes are perforated with sampling holes and can
either be pre-drilled or drilled during installation. Pre-drilled sampling probe/exhaust
pipes can be ordered. Refer to 1.4: Duct Application Accessories List.
Care should be taken to avoid dirt and debris entering the pipe. Always blow
compressed air through the pipe after drilling to clear any debris before final
connection to the equipment.
In duct applications, the sampling holes must be oriented facing away from the
airflow.

Figure 1-15: Sampling probe/exhaust


pipe holes

1.10.5

End Cap

End Cap for Open Area Applications


End cap must be fitted at end of the sampling pipe. The end cap typically has a
sampling hole drilled in its center to control airflow. For pipes with only few sampling
holes, the end cap hole usually is the same size as the sampling holes along the
pipe..

Figure 1-16: End cap


End Cap for Duct Applications
For duct applications, sampling holes are not required for end caps

For above ceiling or concealed open area applications, capillary tube air sampling
can be used. Refer to Table 1-1: 4098-XAD-100 Open Area Application Accessories
List for ordering information on capillary tube air sampling components.

Figure 1-17: Capillary tube

1.10.7

Exhaust Port

In most open area installations, the exhaust port should be left open. However, there
are circumstances where it is necessary to connect exhaust pipe to the exhaust port
to divert the exhaust away from the location of the unit e.g. to reduce noise, reduce
risk of interference/deliberate obstruction, improved environmental protection and for
duct installation.

2 Installation and Configuration

Set-up Notes

The Fan Speed, Flow Limits and Flow Sensitivity need to be set for each installation prior to Flow Calibration and testing. It is not
possible to provide the ideal setting for all possible installations but the following guidelines should assist in the commissioning
of the unit.

2.5.1

Fan Speed

The fan speed should be set to level 9 to achieve the fastest transport time from the sampling point to the sensor. This is
particularly important for long pipe length installations.
For short pipe length applications, the fan speed can be decreased to lower power consumption. When decreasing the fan
speed, make sure the transport time do not exceed the regulatory requirements (120 seconds).

2.5.2

Flow Delays

By default, an increase or decrease in flow beyond the FLOW HIGH and FLOW LO limits will result in a FLOW FAULT after a
delay of approximately 30 seconds. Once the flow is returned to a normal level, the fault condition will be cleared within 18
seconds.
In environments where the sampled airflow may be affected by sudden temperature or pressure changes, or if there is a risk of
physical interference of the sampling point (e.g. prison cell applications) then it may be necessary to increase the delay between
when flow limit has been exceeded and instigating a FLOW FAULT condition.

Notes:
l

Timings are approximate.

The default flow delay setting is 1.

2.5.3

Flow Sensitivity

This setting determines the units responsiveness in reporting blocked sampling points or broken pipes.
The default flow sensitivity value of 9 will configure the unit to declare a flow fault whenever there has been a change in
volumetric airflow of 20% from the calibrated reading for at least the duration of the flow delay. For most installations, the default
setting should be used.
In certain circumstances, such as rapid changes in ambient air pressures due to air handling units, doors opening/closing etc. the
default setting may appear to be too sensitive. Under these conditions, the flow delay setting should be increased to allow time
for the air pressures to stabilize after the temporary event.
Only under extreme environmental conditions or non standard pipe configurations should decreasing the flow sensitivity be
considered.

Testing

Notes:
l

Testing should only be carried out by qualified personnel. To prevent unwanted alarms, ensure that the proper authorities
have been informed and that the unit has been isolated from the fire system.

In cases where the control panel provides an alarm test facility, this may be used in place of the following alarm tests.

3.2.1

Sensor Testing

Open Area Application Testing


With the unit powered up and top cover removed the sensors can be tested for
functionality using methods described by the manufacturer e.g. Smoke Detector
Aerosol Tester (553-673) (1).
Duct Application Testing
1. Unplug the test port plug.
2. Spray 3 to 5 seconds burst of smoke from smoke aerosol tester.
3. The smoke detector must ALARM within 10 seconds. If the detector fails to
alarm, perform system troubleshooting. Refer to 3: Troubleshooting, Testing
and Maintenance.
4. Insert the rubber plug back to the test port hole to prevent airflow fault in the
system.
Figure 3-2: Smoke test port

3.2.2

System Testing

The installed system must be checked with the top cover securely fitted.
Note: For open area applications, smoke should be introduced to the furthest sampling point from the detector.
The choice of smoke source is dependant on the installation but in all cases the smoke must be present for the duration of the
test. If it is possible to get close to the sampling point then a basic, functional check can be carried out with aerosol test smoke.
Ensure that the system complies with manufacturer's instructions and all local and national code requirements.
