General Information

The System Sensor RTS151KEY(A) is an automatic fire detector accessory designed to test remotely located duct and beam detectors. For 4-wire detectors, the RTS151KEY(A) features a multi-colored LED that alternates between steady green and red. Green indicates power and that the detector board is in place. Red indicates alarm. For 2-wire detectors, the LED will show red for alarm. Consult the detector installation instructions for additional information.

The National Fire Protection Association has published codes, standards, and recommended practices for the installation and use of this product. It is recommended that the installer be familiar with these requirements, with local codes, and any special requirements of the local authority having jurisdiction.

Operation

Test Function

Insert the key and turn clockwise to the "TEST" position. ▶️

Alarm Indication

With the key in the "TEST" position, some time will elapse (40 seconds maximum) depending on the detector type, before the alarm indicating LED will turn red.

Reset Function

Turn the key counterclockwise to the "RESET" position and hold. The LED should turn off. Then, turn the key back to the "NORMAL" position and remove. The RTS151KEY(A) is capable of resetting only certain models of detectors. Refer to the detector installation instructions for additional information. ⚙️

Wiring Instructions

Consult the appropriate detector installation instructions for the applicable wiring diagram. The RTS151KEY(A) mounts to a single gang box (2 1/2" minimum depth), or directly to the wall or ceiling.

In Canadian applications, the RTS151KEY(A) is intended to be located in the same room as the smoke detector and within 60 feet of the unit.
