3.1
Personnel
The following will aid in troubleshooting the Model SS3 Detectors. Tests must be performed by qualified
authorized personnel observing standard safety practices. Although the Model SS3 Detector operates
on safe 24 volts DC, the FM/UL Approved Fire Alarm Panel's power supply may operate on a dangerous
120 or 240 volts AC.
WARNING: Hazardous voltages may be present during testing procedures.
Serious injury or death may result if personnel fail to observe safety
3.2
Cleaning Windowed Enclosures and Detectors
The optical windows on the Model SS3 Detector should be cleaned periodically on a regular
maintenance schedule. For clean applications, this may be every month. However, for extremely dirty
applications a cleaning schedule of every day may be necessary.
Clean the windows on the Model SS3 Detectors whenever they are handled, whenever the windows look
dirty, or whenever the Model SS3 Detector fails to pass an end-to-end test with a Handheld Tester.
Use a blast of an air hose or an oil-free cloth to clean the enclosure windows. Oil degrades the
performance of UV detectors. Occasionally, the use of a solvent such as alcohol may be required. No
disassembly of the Model SS3 Detector is required.
