IMPORTANT
Be sure to read and understand the entire
instruction manual before installing or operating the
flame detection system.
WARNING
Do not open the detector assembly in a hazardous
area when power is applied. The detector contains
no user serviceable components and should never
be opened, with the exception of the rear wiring
compartment. Doing so could disturb critical
optical alignment and calibration parameters,
possibly causing serious damage. This type of
damage could be undetected and could result in
failure to see a fire and/or false alarm.
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
guaranteed. 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. Installation must be
done by a properly trained person.
CAUTION
To prevent unwanted actuation or alarm,
extinguishing devices must be disconnected prior
to performing detection system tests or
maintenance.
ATTENTION
Remove protective cap from front of the detector
before activating the system.
ATTENTION
Observe precautions for handling electrostatic
sensitive devices.
ATTENTION
The X3300 includes the Automatic Optical Integrity
(
oi
) feature — a calibrated performance test that is
automatically performed once per minute to verify
complete detector operation capabilities. No
testing with an external test lamp is required.
DESCRIPTION
The X3300 Protect•ir with Integral ‘EEx e’ Junction Box is a
multispectrum infrared (IR) flame detector. It provides
unsurpassed detection of fires from light to heavy
hydrocarbon fuels combined with the highest degree of
false alarm rejection. The detector is suitable for use in
indoor and outdoor applications with NEMA 4X/IP66
classifications as well as ‘EEx d e’ explosion-proof ratings.
The X3300 contains three IR sensors, signal processing
circuitry, and fire and fault relays. A tricolor LED on the
detector faceplate indicates normal, fire alarm, and fault
conditions.
