Abstract: Newly installed electrical units emit, for a brief install interval, an “installed” output either audibly or visually, or both in response to an install mode input signal. After the install interval, the “installed” output ceases. As more units are installed, the earliest installed units remain silent in the presence of the install mode input signal.

Abstract: A duct mountable smoke detector includes a smoke sensor, an alarm indicating output relay, and an air flow control relay. In the presence of an alarm condition, the alarm indicating relay is energized thereby producing an alarm indicating signal. The air flow control relay is also energized thereupon changing an operative state of the respective air flow control element. Finally, a signal is coupled to an input/output interconnect port and, via an interconnect link, to other detectors coupled to the link. Other detectors coupled to the link which receive an alarm indicating interconnect signal energize the respective air flow control relays thereby changing operative state of the respective air flow control devices. The other detectors do not enter an alarm state. This allows for easy determination of the detector that initiated the alarm.

Abstract: A detector tamper/trouble delay circuit incorporates a sensor which senses the presence or absence of a cover for the detector. When the cover is removed, the sensor triggers a delay element preset for predetermined time interval. If the cover is replaced during the time interval, no trouble or fault indicator is generated. If the cover remains off the detector for the entire time interval, a trouble or fault indicator will be generated. The indicator can be used by an alarm system control element or a stand alone trouble or fault indicator for producing a humanly perceptible representation of the existence of the fault or trouble condition.

Abstract: An adjustable sampling tube construction for a duct-mounted smoke detector includes telescopic tube sections which can be fixed in overall length by a screw extending through an outer tube to fix an inner tube with respect to the outer tube. The inner tube includes air sampling holes spaced apart along its length and the outer tube includes a plurality of spaced apart through holes having a same spacing to register with the sampling holes of the inner tube. The inner tube is telescopically positionable within the outer tube to register the sampling holes with the through holes to provide air sampling locations throughout a length of the combined inner and outer tube assembly.
