EN54 FireProtect (Heat) Jeweller User Manual

Product Overview

The EN54 FireProtect (Heat) Jeweller is a wireless addressable point heat detector that complies with EN 54-5 requirements for Class A1, B, and C heat detectors with rate-of-rise (R) and static (S) response types. It is designed to detect dangerous temperatures and operates as part of an Ajax system, communicating with control and indicating equipment (CIE) via the secure Jeweller radio protocol. The communication range with the CIE can extend up to 1,700 meters in open spaces.

Functional Elements

The detector features a front panel, LED indicators (green, yellow, red), a hole for a special tool to unlock the device, a SmartBracket mounting panel with fixing points, a battery compartment, a lock for securing the device, a tamper button, a QR code with the device ID for adding to the CIE, a power button, and thermistors for detecting dangerous temperatures.

Operating Principle

The EN54 FireProtect (Heat) Jeweller is a wireless fire detector with a heat sensor designed for indoor use. It operates 24/7, regardless of the system's security mode. Powered by pre-installed batteries, it monitors its operational state and reports any faults. The tamper button is triggered if an attempt is made to remove the device from its mounting panel.

Heat Sensor

Two built-in thermistors detect rapid temperature rises or temperatures exceeding a threshold. The detector triggers an alarm based on the detected temperature rise or static temperature, with response times and threshold compliance adhering to EN 54-5 standards. Available heat sensor modes include A1, A1R, A1S, B, BR, BS, C, CR, CS, and Fixed temperature settings ranging from +45°C to +85°C (default +60°C).

Jeweller Data Transfer Protocols

Jeweller is a wireless protocol enabling fast and reliable two-way communication between the CIE and devices, transmitting commands, alarms, and events. Ajax systems can transmit alarms to the Ajax PRO Desktop app and monitoring stations using various protocols like SurGard (Contact ID) and SIA (DC-09). Events transmitted include fire alarms, heat sensor faults, low battery, tamper alarms, and communication loss/recovery. The addressability of Ajax devices provides detailed information to monitoring stations, including device type, name, fire zone, and location.

Selecting the Installation Site

The detector is for indoor installation only. Local fire safety regulations should be followed. Key factors for site selection include Jeweller signal strength, distance to the CIE, and the presence of signal obstacles. A Jeweller signal strength test should be performed before final installation, aiming for a three-bar signal strength as per EN 54 requirements. Poor signal strength may necessitate relocating the device or using a range extender.

Where Not to Install the Device

• Outdoors
• In areas with temperatures or humidity outside permissible limits
• In places with fast air circulation (near fans, vents, open windows/doors)
• Opposite objects with rapidly changing temperatures (heaters)
• In room corners
• In bathrooms or showers with rapid temperature changes
• Near lighting fixtures or decorations that obstruct air circulation
• On surfaces with significantly different temperatures than the surroundings (e.g., skylights)
• In areas with low or unstable Jeweller signal strength
• Closer than 1 meter to the CIE or radio signal range extender

Installation

Installation should be performed by a professional. The process involves removing the SmartBracket, temporarily securing it, adding the detector to the CIE, placing the device on the SmartBracket, running functionality tests, permanently fixing the SmartBracket with screws, and optionally securing the device with a lock. The SmartBracket allows for up to 90° rotation of the detector.

Adding to the System

Ensure the CIE and device operate on the same radio frequency. Before adding, install an Ajax app, log in, create a space, add a virtual room, and a compatible CIE. The space should be disarmed, and the CIE should not be updating. Adding is done via the Ajax app by scanning the device's QR code or entering the ID. Assign a name, fire zone, and virtual room, and specify the location. Power on the device by holding the power button for 3 seconds. The device works with only one CIE at a time.

Functionality Testing

The Jeweller signal strength test in the Ajax app helps determine the signal strength and stability between the CIE and the device. Access the test via the device settings in the app. The test results are indicated by LED colors: green for 3 bars (excellent), yellow for 2 bars (good), red for 1 bar (low), and rapidly flashing red for 0 bars (no signal).
