Smoke detector RM 3000+ (Replacement)
with RS 3000 Relay Base for Hold-Open Systems
DICTATOR RM 3000+ smoke detectors are used in hold-open systems to automatically close fire protection doors in the event of alarm.
The optical smoke detectors work on the principle of photo-electric detection of scattered light without using any radio-activity. To ensure maximum safety against false alarms three consecutive sensed alarm signals are needed to trigger off alarm and the relay integrated in the base switching off the power supply to the hold-open magnets.
The detectors of this series comply with the European standard EN 54.
They have been tested as tripping devices for hold-open systems and are approved together with DICTATOR electromagnets by the building authorities. The detectors are among others included in the following approvals: Z-6.5-1903, Z-6.5-1707.
To ensure the correct functioning of the hold-open system, the DICTATOR smoke and heat detectors have to be replaced after a maximum of 8 years of operational life. In Germany the DIN 14677 regulates the replacement obligation of fire detectors in hold-open systems.

 | When mounting the RM 3000+ smoke detector on fire protection doors, it is imperative to observe the general approval of the building authorities for the hold-open system. To protect the RM 3000+ smoke detector from pollution during construction work, all detectors are delivered with a red protection cap which must be removed when the hold-open system is put into operation. At first the socket is mounted. Usually the relay base, part no. 040841 is used. It is part of the 040800NSET set. Only in case of suspended ceilings usually a special mounting socket with frame, part no. 040842, is used. On demand, we gladly will send you more information. The two slots in the base make it very easy to install it on the ceiling. If the detector has to be mounted on the wall (always in a horizontal position!!!), a mounting bracket has to be used (part no. 040570 or 040575, see point Mounting brackets). The base has a wide interior diameter and five terminals. Wiring is possible both from the (open) back or from the side (knock-outs in the base). Electrical connection of the detector(s) Wiring is carried out according to the adjoining wiring diagrams. The power is supplied by one of the DICTATOR power packs (depends on the power consumption of the hold-open system). Hand release switch: needs to be placed in the wiring to the first detector. Hold-open devices (e.g. electromagnet, door closers with electromagnetic hold-open, door operators with integrated hold-open): connection to the last detector in the detector circuit. After wiring the base the detector is plugged in and turned clockwise. A missing detector of a hold-open system in operating state means alarm and the power supply to the holding devices is interrupted. IMPORTANT: Protect the smoke detectors from dust, colour mist, moisture etc. to prevent malfunction. |
