General Description
The model 2551HR photoelectronic sensors utilize a state-
of-the-art, optical sensing chamber. These sensors are de-
signed for use with duct housings DH500 and DH500AC/
DC only, and to be used with compatible control panels
only. Connect detectors only to compatible control units.
(For installation in Canada, refer to CAN/ULC-S524-M86,
Standard for the Installation of Fire Alarm Systems and CEC
Part 1, Sec. 32.)
Two LEDs on each sensor light to provide a local 360

vis-
ibility of the sensor indication. The LEDs can be latched
ON by code command from the panel for an alarm indica-
tion. The LEDs can also be unlatched to the normal condi-
tion by code command. Remote LED annunciator

Wiring Guide
Refer to the installation instructions for the particular plug-
in base being used: 1) for the B501B base (D550-01-01); 2)
for the B501 base (D550-02-00); 3) for the RMK400 used
with the B501 base (D450-07-00). Bases are provided with
screw terminals for power, ground, and remote annunciator
connections (see Figure 1).
NOTE: All wiring must conform to applicable local codes,
ordinances, and regulations.
NOTE: Verify that all sensor bases are installed and that
the wiring polarity is correct at each base.
WARNING
Remove power from the loop before installing sensors.
1. Install sensors:
a. Verify that the sensor type matches the type written
on the label on the base.
b. Set the sensor to a desired address and then write the
address on the label on the base.
c. Place the sensor into the sensor base.
