4-WIRE LOW-FLOW DUCT DETECTORS
MDH-SL2000 SERIES
Features
MDH-SL2000I Ionization Duct Detector with Low-Flow Technology
MDH-SL2000P Photoelectric Duct Detector with Low-Flow Technology
Description
Mircoms MDH-SL2000 Series Duct Smoke Detectors
are available in 4-wire ionization and photoelectric
models. The MDH-SL2000 Series Duct Smoke
Detectors are the latest innovation for early detection
of smoke and products of combustion present in air
moving through HVAC ducts in Commercial, Industrial
and Residential applications.
The MDH-SL2000 Series Duct Smoke Detectors are
designed to prevent the re-circulation of smoke by the
air handling systems, fans, and blowers. Complete
systems may be shut down in the event of smoke
detection.
Mircoms MDH-SL2000 Series feature Low-Flow
technology which enables duct smoke detection
through a broad range of airflow environments.
The MDH-SL2000 Series are designed and built to
meet all local requirements, as well as the NFPA and
ICC standards regarding HVAC supply and return duct
smoke detectors. Output terminals are provided for
a wide range of remote accessories such as horns,
strobes, remote status indicators and test/reset key
switches or push buttons.
4-wire Ionization and Photoelectric models with LowFlow technology
Both Ionization and Photoelectric models are listed
for velocities between 100-4000 ft./min
Operating voltages of 230VAC, 115VAC, 24VAC,
24VDC
Both models listed for high temperature applications
Interconnect up to 30 units for common functions
Patented No-Tools Required front or rear loading
and removing sampling/exhaust tubes
Patented Test Port Valve allows for aerosol smoke
testing without cover removal
Clear cover fitted with four captive No-Tools
Required thumbscrews
Instantaneous cover removal trouble indication
Staggered terminal blocks for easier wiring
Flashing LED on detector head indicates normal
operation
Magnet test capability (magnet included)
More wiring space than competitive models
Footprint allows retro-fit in many applications without
additional drilling
Duct wall gaskets on back of enclosure are preinstalled
Reset switch is also an alarm test switch - competitive
models require a magnet or cover removal to test
at unit
Unit includes green pilot and red alarm visual
indicators
External mounting tabs do not require cover removal
to install
Colored cover gasket indicates proper seal
Compact, lightweight size means easy handling and
lower shipping costs

One set of 2A form A alarm contacts
One set of 10A form C trouble contacts
Large terminal connection screws
Standard interchangeable plug-in UL268
photoelectric or ionization heads

filtering
No additional screens or filters to clean
Compatible with building automation and fire alarm
systems
