The base accommodates a variety of backbox mounting methods, as well as direct mounting with drywall anchors. To complete the installation, i³ Series heads plug into the base with a simple Stop-Drop ’N Lock™ action.

Intelligence. i³ Series detectors offer a number of intelligent features to simplify testing and maintenance. Drift compensation and smoothing algorithms, to minimize nuisance alarms, are standard in the i³ Series. When connected to the 2W-MOD loop test/maintenance module, two-wire i³ detectors are capable of generating a remote maintenance signal when they need cleaning. This signal is indicated by LEDs located at the module and at the panel. To read the sensitivity of i³ detectors, the SENS-RDR is a wireless device that displays sensitivity in terms of percent-per-foot obscuration.

Installatio Flexibility. To satisfy a variety of installations, the 5600 (A) Series easily mounts to single-gang and octagonal backboxes. These models also accommodact 4” (101.6mm) square backboxes when used with plaster ring The mounting bracket is reversible to allow for flush-and surface-mount backbox installations.
