 MRI-2351RAP is also listed for use inside DNR(W) duct smoke 

detectors.

WIRING GUIDE

All wiring must be installed in compliance with the National Electrical Code, 

applicable local codes, and any special requirements of the Authority Having 

Jurisdiction. Proper wire gauges should be used. The installation wires should 

be color-coded to limit wiring mistakes and ease system troubleshooting. Im-

proper connections will prevent a system from responding properly in the 

event of a fire.

Remove power from the communication line before installing sensors.

1.   Wire the sensor base (supplied separately) per the wiring diagram, Figure 2.

2.   Set the desired address on the sensor address switches, see Figure 1.

3.   Install the sensor into the sensor base. Push the sensor into the base while 

turning it clockwise to secure it in place.

4.   After all sensors have been installed, apply power to the control panel and 

activate the communication line.

5.   Test the sensor(s) as described in the TESTING section of this manual.

CAUTION

Dust covers provide limited protection against airborne dust particles during 

shipping. Dust covers must be removed before the sensors can sense smoke. 

Remove sensors prior to heavy remodeling or construction.

TAMPER-RESISTANCE

MRI-2351RAP includes a tamper-resistant capability that prevents removal 

from the base without the use of a tool. Refer to the base manual for details on 

making use of this capability.

TESTING

Before testing, notify the proper authorities that the system is undergoing 

maintenance, and will temporarily be out of service. Disable the system to 

prevent unwanted alarms.
All sensors must be tested after installation and periodically thereafter. Test-

ing methods must satisfy the Authority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Sensors 

offer maximum performance when tested and maintained in compliance with 

NFPA 72.

UL268A listed for Duct Applications
This sensor must be installed in compliance with the control panel system 

installation manual. The installation must meet the requirements of the Au-

thority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Sensors offer maximum performance when 

installed in compliance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA); 

see NFPA 72. 

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

MRI-2351RAP is a plug-in type smoke sensor that combines a photoelectronic 

sensing chamber with addressable-analog communications. When used in 

duct applications with a DNR(W), testing can be done remotely using ap-

proved System Sen sor test accessories, eliminating the need for a test coil. The 

sensors transmit an analog representation of smoke density over a communi-

cation line to a control panel. Rotary dial switches are provided for setting the 

sensor’s address.

Two LEDs on the sensor are controlled by the panel to indicate sensor status. 

An output is provided for connection to an optional remote LED annunciator  

(P/N RA100Z). 
Note: Only System Sensor approved accessories may be used with the 

MRI-2351RAP.
Secutron panels offer different features sets across different models. As a re-

sult, certain features of the photoelectric sensors may be available on some 

control panels, but not on others. MRI-2351RAP supports Advanced Protocol 

and CLIP (Classic Loop Interface Protocol) mode. The possible features avail-

able if supported by the control panel are: 
1.   The sensor’s LEDs can operate in three ways—on, off, and blinking–and 

they can be set to red, green, or amber. This is controlled by the panel. 

2.   The remote output may be synchronized to the LED operation or con-

trolled independent of the LEDs.

3.   Devices are point addressable up to 159 addresses.
Please refer to the operation manual for the UL listed control panel for specific 

operation. The MRI-2351RAP requires compatible addressable communica-

tions to function properly. Connect these sensors to listed-compatible control 

panels only. 

SPACING

Secutron recommends spacing sensors in compliance with NFPA 72. In low air 

flow applications with smooth ceilings, space sensors 30 feet apart (9.1 m). 

For specific information regarding sensor spacing, placement, and special ap-

plications, refer to NFPA 72 or the System Smoke Detector Application Guide, 

available from Secutron.

Duct Applications:
