MIR-65 Series Smoke & Heat DetectorsInstallation
Instructions
GeneralThese instructions apply to the 6 E-Z Fit base, part no
MSB-65B, for installingMIR-65 Series smoke and heat detectors.
InstallationThese products must be installed in accordance with
the applicable NFPA standards,local codes and jurisdictional
authorities. Failure to follow these instructionsmay result in
failure of the detectors to report an alarm condition. Mircom is
notresponsible for detectors which are improperly installed,
maintained and tested.
Before installing these products check the continuity, polarity
and insulationresistance of all wiring. Check that siting is in
accordance with the re systemdrawings and conforms to all
applicable local codes such as NFPA 72.
Use 3 octagonal box for direct connection to the base. 4
octagonal and 4 square
boxes may be used with proper UL listed mounting brackets. When
mounting ona wall, install 4 to 12 from the ceiling. Use 3M
Weatherban 606 Non-Flammablesealing compound (or equivalent) to
seal eld wiring conduit opening in the electricalbox, this will
reduce the stacking effect. Secure the base to the electrical box
withappropriate screws. Do not overtighten the screws. The raised
mark on the side ofthe base indicates the direction of the detector
LED when tted. Connect the shield, ifrequired, to the SHIELD
terminal on the base.
