1.0 Overview
The D340 Air Duct Smoke Detector Housing is
designed to mount to the ducts of heating, ventilation,
and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems to monitor the
presence of smoke in the conditioned air.
Use the D340 with the D285DH Photoelectric Smoke
Detector (provided separately). The detector is
combined with an efficient housing design to sample
the air passing through a duct and detect potentially
hazardous conditions. When it detects smoke, the
detector sends an alarm signal to the control panel.
The control panel initiates the necessary action to shut
off fans and blowers or to switch to other air handling
systems.
The D340 operates on a two-wire loop, and requires a
smoke detector head.
Test the system by placing an external magnet on the
housing or switching the keyswitch from a Remote
Test station. Reset control requires a 24 V supply from
the control panel or an external power supply.
You can reset the detector by shutting down zone
power. If your system has a D344-RT Remote Test Kit,
you can reset the system using the keyswitch.
Install the D340 according to:
•NFPA 90A: Standard for the Installation of Air
