Optical flame fire detector FD 8040 is designed to provide early warning of a fire condition responding to open
flame. The fire detector reacts within the light spectrum of the flame and has maximum sensitivity of the
infrared range. The opearation principle is based on the reception of flame emissions with their typical flicker
frequency within the whole spectrum range. The infrared sensor signal - amplified, filtered and shaped is
being sent to the time delay circuit. If the flame impact has decreased during the time delay , the fire detector
dos not activate.
The fire detector consists of (fig.1) printed board, mounted in a plastic body with optical filter and bottom side.
The flat point pivot

screw (optional) prevents the fire detector of unauthorized removal. A 2 mm tip

screwdriver is required for locking and unlocking. The two red LEDs of the fire detector (fig.1) are indicating
Fire condition, providing 360 angle visibility. It is recommended that the fire detectors are mounted in
premises, where a possible development of fire condition is supplemented by flame. Avoid mountong in
premises with flickering lights. The fire detectors shall be mounted on the ceiling in a way, that do not alow
explosure to direct sunlight.

TECHNICAL DATA

Fire detector FD8040 is to be  used with base types 8000 (standard base), 8000D (with schottky diode),
8000R  ( with relay output ), 8000 DR (with schottky diode and resistor 500) or 8000L (with resistor 510)
When mounting the fire detector and the base observe the following sequence :

Fix the base to the ceiling of the protected premise using fixing screws and wood screws.
Complete the electrical wiring as shown on (fig 2.), and according to the rational design of the premise.
Fix the fire detector to the base by means of bayonet joint (fig1,pos1). When fixing, make sure that the

bench mark of the detector stands about 20 mm before the respective bench mark of the base so that the
plastic channels  fully coincide (fig1,pos2), then rotate clockwise to complete location (fig3,pos1). The
bench marks should fully coincide (fig3,pos2).
Lock the detector (fig4.) head to the base by screwing the flat pivot point screw, using a specialized
screwdriver in clockwise direction to complete location, ensure not to over tighten. Unlock by unscrewing
(pos.4) the flat pivot point screw until the detector's head is released from the base.

INSTALLATION

TESTING

The fire detector shall be tested after installation, as a part of the Fire Alarm System of the premise or
after performing service schedule , in the following sequence :
1.Power supply the fire detector from the fire alarm line,to which it is mounted. The supply voltage value
is given in section Technical data of the instruction manual herein. Supply voltage can be provided by the
Fire alarm panel or by an auxiliary source 24V DC/0,1A.
2.Use a tester for flame detectors after a minute. In 30 seconds the LEDs  shall be illuminated (Fire
condition).
3.Cut off the power supply of the detector for a while about 2 seconds or reset the fire panel . It should
remain in duty mode and ready for new activation after 30 seconds.

SERVICE SCHEDULE

1. Inspection for visible physical damages                                    weekly
2. Satisfactory Operation test                                                        weekly
3. Check and clean dust contaminations                                      every 6 months

*

* Remove the detector from the base , than remove the chamber from the detector (fig1pos6.)You can

use for a cover a cleaning materials, washing and drying.The optical chamber and the photodiod you
have to clean with clean cloth .

PACKING, STORAGE AND TRANSPORTATION

1. Each device is to be placed in separate package, together with the instruction manual.
2. The flame detectors should be stored packaged in dry store premises аt temperature from 0 to 35 C

o

o

and relative humidity resistance up to 85% in non-aggressive environment, microorganisms or vibrations.
Shelf life -10 years.
3.The fire detectors should be transported in transport packing, observing the transportation markings on
the boxes.

WARRANTY

The warrant period is 36 months from the date of purchase.
The manufacturer guarantees the normal  operation  of the fire detector providing that the requirements of
the instruction manual herein have been observed.
The   manufacturer  does  not   bear   warranty   liabilities   for    damages     caused  through    accidental
mechanical  damage,  misuse,    adaptation   or    modification  after  production. The  manufacturer bears
warranty liabilities for damages in the fire detector caused through manufacturer's fault only.
