Guest aechlin Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Hello, I have a Thorn SGU601 Carbon Monoxide detector, from an //.National Installer.// system and I am trying my hardest to get the wiring information for it. It has four terminals, R, L, L1 and L2 on the base. I intend to connect it to the last free zone on my alarm panel to act as the fire zone. Any help would be greatfully recieved Thank You Alistair Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/1289-carbon-monoxide-detector/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aechlin Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Hmmmm, ok, so if I managed to supply it with 24 volts how would I connect up the alarm switch side of the detector? I may need to use an opto-isolator to trigger the panel. Thank you for your very much for your quick response Alistair Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/1289-carbon-monoxide-detector/#findComment-6848 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest aechlin Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 Well thank you for explaining this to me, would have been spending lots of time on this for nothing. I see now its not as straight forward as I anticapated.

Guest graemekeatley Posted February 1, 2004 Share Posted February 1, 2004 With regards to how to wire them Negitive - L Incoming Positive - L1 Outgoing Positive - L2 EOL between L2 and L at last device Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/1289-carbon-monoxide-detector/#findComment-6860 Share on other sites More sharing options...
morph Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 You can fit these detectors to a normal intruder system and //.National Installer.// were using these in Residential systems. One of the //.National Installer.// guys should be able to confirm the wiring and eol setup. They operate over a voltage range of 9volts up to 24volts. Colin.

mr silcox Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 if you want to test it buy some cheep joss sticks from your local knick knack shop it should go within 10 - 30 secs put joss stick about 10 cms from detector Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/1289-carbon-monoxide-detector/#findComment-6915 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 4k7 Posted February 13, 2004 Share Posted February 13, 2004 do bear in mind they are NOT smoke detectors , but CARBON MONOXIDE (CO) detectors, which also means if you have a faulty gas appliance they WILL activate Link to comment https://www.thesecurityinstaller.co.uk/community/topic/1289-carbon-monoxide-detector/#findComment-7372 Share on other sites More sharing options...
