Conventional Detector Base with Diode for use with Ziton Conventional Smoke & Heat Detectors

Simple twist and lock action

Ziton Z6-BS5 detector base allows any Ziton Z600 conventional detector to be removed or replaced without disconnecting wiring from detector terminals. Detectors plug into the base units with a simple twist and lock action, allowing quick and easy removal for cleaning and servicing, or re-selection of detector type should the usage of the protected area change.

Designed for systems complying with the recommendations of BS 5839 Pt1, where the removal of a detector from its base must not effect the operation of devices wired further down the line, the Z6-BS5 base includes a diode arrangement, providing line continuity. When using the Z6-BS5 with any ZC conventional control panel, for head out monitoring, the line must be terminated with a active end of line device.

Robust wiring terminals

Forming an integral part of the overall detector assembly, the base is provided with slots for screw fixing to either surface wiring plates, or conduit boxes with screw fixing centres between 50mm and 90 mm.

Bases feature robust wiring terminals with captive clamping washers to ensure secure wiring termination. The bases are of shallow design with ample space to accommodate cables of all types. Terminals are provided inside the moulding for the connection of a remote LED when required.

Automatic locking

In order to prevent unauthorised removal of a detector from its base, an automatic locking breakout is incorporated into the interior of all detector mouldings. If the breakout is removed, detectors can then only be released from their bases by use of a Ziton detector head picker (Z-PH-2). The locking facility is an easily applied option, often taken on site, at the system commissioning stage.

For systems where head out continuity is not a requirement the Ziton Z6-BS1 base should be installed.
