Det-Tronics PM-5MP & PM-5MP+ Dual Spectrum IR Flame Detector - Manual (Page 3)

IMPORTANT
Be sure to read and understand the entire instruc-
tion manual before installing or operating the Model
PM-5MP and PM-5MP+ Detectors. Only qualified
personnel should install, maintain or operate the
flame detection system.
CAUTION
The wiring procedures in this manual are intended
to ensure proper functioning of the device under
normal conditions. However, because of the many
variations in wiring codes and regulations, total
compliance to these ordinances cannot be guaran-
teed. Be certain that all wiring complies with the
NEC as well as all local ordinances. If in doubt,
consult the authority having jurisdiction before
wiring the system.
The Dual Spectrum® PM-5MP and PM-5MP+ are
Factory Mutual Approved infrared flame detectors that
provide reliable flame detection in semiconductor fabri-
cation facilities and other manufacturing environments.
They provide fast protection against fires, have a maxi-
mum 110° field-of-view, and are Approved for use in haz-
ardous (classified) locations as described below. The
detector response to explosive fires is as fast as 25 mil-
liseconds.
The PM-5MP (medium sensitivity) P/N 420021 and the
PM-5MP+ (high sensitivity) P/N 420737 are encapsulat-
ed and enclosed in an extremely compact molded
polypropylene housing approximately 3.1 x 3.1 x 1.5
inches in size. (See Figure 1.) They are intended for
mounting in locations where space is at a premium. The
IP67 polypropylene housing is resistant to attack by a
broad range of chemicals. The housing has four holes in
the mounting flange that allow it to be attached to a
bracket or other flat surface. Electrical connections are
made via an integral multiconductor cable.
Factory Mutual Approvals (FMA) has Approved:
1)
the performance of the flame detector (per 3260),
2) the compliance with National Fire Protection
Association (NFPA) Standard 72 of the detectors
and the installation described in this document,
3) the suitability for use in protected semiconductor
fabrication areas, as described in the FM Loss
Prevention Data Sheets 7-7/17-12, and
4) the suitability of the installation for use in hazardous
(classified) locations.
NOTE
These detectors are specifically tuned and tested to
respond to fires as described in this manual. The
detector response to other fuel sources not
described in this manual may vary. Please contact
Detector Electronics Corporation for further infor-
mation.
APPLICATIONS
The PM-5MP and PM-5MP+ are intended for fast detec-
tion of hydrocarbon fueled fires in harsh chemical envi-
ronments. The detector is ideal for semiconductor wet
benches and is suitable for clean-room and other indoor
applications.
