Precautions for Use
Ignoring this warning and mish andling the product will cause
WARNING
a serious injury or death.
Ignoring this caution and mish andling the product will cause
CAUTION
a personal injury or damage to property.
WARNING
The halogen lamp is very bright and emits a large amount of ultraviolet rays. Never gaze
at the light from the lamp directly with naked eyes or do not expose your skins to such light.
Otherwise your eyes or skins may be inflamed. Do not look into the inside of the Light
source unit directly. If it is necessary to look at the lamp directly, be sure to wear dark colored
glasses, which shut off ultraviolet rays.
Do not apply an undue force such as by twisting and bending to the lamp nor drop the
lamp. The lamp may rupture.
When cleaning or replacing the lamp, be sure to turn off the source power supply of the
wait until the Light source unit, Cover and lamp cool down sufficiently in order to prevent such
accidents as electric shock and short circuit. (Hazard of burn and electric shock.)
CAUTION
While the lamp is on or immediately after it is turned off, the light source unit and lamp
are very hot. Never touch them with hands or skins. (Touching them will cause burn.)
Do not turn on the halogen lamp with the front cover removed.

1.4.2 Electrical Section
Light emitted from the light source unit is attenuated in accordance with the smoke
density in the smoke duct.
The light is then reflected by the half mirror within the receive unit to fall on the optical
sensor surface.
This section detects variations in illuminance and converts the illuminance into an
electrical signal, which is then amplified by the control panel amplifier and displayed on the
densitometer and at the same time, converted into an alarm signal.
When the smoke density exceeds a preset density, the alarm lamp is turned on and the
external alarm system is operated.
Density variations may also be recorded on an external recorder, if necessary.
The smoke density is expressed in the Ringelmann Chart number system. In this system,
the density is divided into six grades as in Table 2.
Table 2

1.5 FEATURES
The SSEC-10, SSEC-10A has the following features.
(1) Light and compact; easily operated and maintained.
(2) Even a quick smoke density change is indicated as a slow change so that reading errors
are eliminated.
(3) Alarm can be preset to set off at any desired smoke density.
(4) Since the alarm signal output circuit employs the 1C contact system, either one of the two
signals-ON and OFF signals at alarm time - are captured by either one of the two circuits.
(5) Remote monitoring system can be established by connecting an external smoke
densitometer and alarm setter.
(6) Two types of signal output terminals for a recorder are provided-voltage signal (0 to 5V
DC) and current signal (4 to 20 mA DC).

2. CONSTRUCTIONS AND FUNCTION
- 5 -
2.3 VISION UNIT
This unit consists of a main body, cap, a mounting flange, a plane mirror, and a hood. The
main body may be rotated around the center axis to permit monitoring of an image (smoke
status) from a desired direction. As with the receive unit, the angle of the reflecting mirror
may be finely adjusted.

2.5 INSULATING GASKET
Several insulating gaskets in layers reduces heat conduction from the smoke duct to the
light source unit and receive unit.

3. INSTALLATION
3. 1 Component Installation
3.1.1 Light Source and Receive Units
(1) Select the installation spot where the smoke flows not in whirls but evenly and
smoothly. Avoid a duct bend and the neighborhood of a damper.
(2) Install the instrument-mounting flange on the smoke duct.
When installing the flange, pay due attention to the axial line and flange
mounting surface parallelism so as to align the optical axes of 'the light source and
receive units. Also, ensure that the space between the smoke duct and the flange
accepts the retaining bolts. Refer to Figs. 2-a and 2-b for a sample installation work.
a) When the installation work cannot be performed inside the smoke duct (see Fig.
2-a).
i) Drill holes with the same diameter as the ID of the 60.5-mm OD steel pipe in
both sides of the smoke duct. Ensure that the holes are at right angles to the
smoke duct axis,
ii) Have on hand a shaft (or suitable pipe) with a slightly smaller diameter than
the ID of the steel pipe. Insert this shaft into the holes made in step i).
iii) Install the steel pipe over the shaft inserted in step ii).
While raising the shaft to keep the axial lines aligned, weld the steel pipe to the
smoke duct (full-circled welding).
iv) Weld the flanges to the steel pipe (full-circled welding). Ensure that the light
source and receive units are paralleled with each other (X- and Y-axes).
v) After completion of the welding, remove the shaft inserted in step ii).
b) When the installation work can be performed inside the smoke duct (see Fig. 2-b).
i) Drill holes in both sides of the smoke duct. The holes must be at right angles to
the smoke duct axis and large enough to accept the 60.5-mm OD steel pipe,
ii) Insert the steel pipe into the holes and weld it to the smoke duct (full-circled
welding).
iii) Weld the flanges to the steel pipe (full-circled welding). Ensure that the light
source and receive units are paralleled with each other (X- and Y-axes).
iv) Cut the steel pipe at the points close to the inside wall of the smoke duct.

3.1.2 Vision Unit and Lens Unit
(1) When only the vision unit is to be used, install the required length of steel pipe with
flanges welded at both ends between the receive and vision units as shown in Fig.
4(a). The pipe should be tightly secured with suitable hexagon head bolts (M12 x 40
long) so that it may not loosen by vibration.
Particular attention should be paid to the flatness and perpendicularity of the flanges.
Also, supports should be used to stabilize the pipe.
(2) When an optional lens unit is to be used, have on hand a 1 m steel pipe with flanges
welded at both ends besides a pipe like the one used in (1).
The installation should be made using the same procedure as in (1) so that the total
length of the pipe on the vision unit side is 1 m. (Fig.4 (b))

3.1.3 Reflecting Unit
Install the required number of units between the receive unit and vision unit using
flange attached steel pipes as in 3.1.2.
Fig. 5
- 12 -
3.1.5 Control Panel
(1) The control panel should be installed at a location free from corrosive gases or fumes.
Also, avoid a dusty location or a location where there is a mechanical vibration source
nearby, or the temperature or humidity changes greatly.
Care should be taken to protect the panel from water drops.
Further, select a well-ventilated place, as the panel incorporates heating components.
(2) Secure the control panel tightly with screws matching the panel mounting holes.

REMARKS
In the indicator, it is [E1], [E2] and [00] might be displayed. This
is because setting the factory shipment and no normal measurement
operates the system.
Please deal referring to Section 6 [Treatment of the error].
In the preparation before it adjusts it, this state is maintained and a
special operation is a thing not done. Then allow at least 30 minutes to
permit the apparatus to arrive at thermal equilibrium.

4.2.2 Electrical Section Adjustment
After the rough adjustment in Section 4.2.1 (3) allow at least 30 minutes to permit the
apparatus to arrive at thermal equilibrium. Then, make the following adjustment.
Make sure that the smoke duct is free of floating matter or light-shielding matter, and
then open the shutter (option).
(1) Initial adjustment (Automatic calibration)
(a) [CAL] key of a control panel is pushed.
[RUN] lights to green, and [CAL] lights red.

A present density of smoke is displayed in
"DEGREE DISPLAY".

(3) Filter Setting (Setting of response speed)
For the change in a rapid density of smoke to operate
the output of the density of smoke gradually, it equips it
with the filter.
The installation value of the filter can be set to ten
stages from [F0"] to [F9].
The response speed is shown in "Table-3".

6.2 TROUBLESHOOTING
When a problem is encountered during use of the apparatus, check for improper
connections or broken wires and also check if the units are properly installed. After making
the above checks, troubleshoot the apparatus according to Table 6 given below.
Be sure to disconnect power before parts replacement, repair, or cleaning.
HANDLING PRECAUTIONS
(1) All PC board trimmers except those specified have been factory adjusted and
therefore should not be tampered with.
(2) The optical filters (IRCC and IRC) and half-mirror are made of glass and therefore
should be carefully handled so as not to scratch or damage them.
(3) As the control and optical sensor PC boards emply ICs, no megger testing should be
performed.
(4) As this apparatus is rated for continuous operation, it should not be turned on and off
frequently.
