NOTE: In panels where this feature is not available the MIX-5351APA will
default to a 135°F fixed heat detector. MIX-5351RAPA will default to a
135°F fixed heat detector and rate-of-rise. MIX-5351HAPA will default to
a 190°F high temperature heat detector.
Intelligent programmable temperature sensors require compatible addressable
communications to function properly. Connect these sensors to listed-compat-
ible control panels only.
WIRING GUIDE
All wiring must be installed in compliance with the Canadian Electrical Code,
applicable local codes and the Authority Having Jurisdiction. Proper wire
gauges should be used. The installation wires should be color coded to limit
wiring mistakes and ease system troubleshooting. Improper connections will
prevent a system from responding properly in the event of a fire.
Remove power from the communication line before installing sensors.
1. Wire the sensor base (supplied separately) as shown in the wiring
diagram. (See Figure 2.)
2. Set the desired address on the rotary dial switches. (See Figure 1.)
3. Install the sensor into the sensor base. Push the sensor into the base
while turning it clockwise to secure it in place.
4. After all sensors have been installed, apply power to the control unit and
activate the communication line.
5. Test the sensor(s) as described in the TESTING section of this manual.

CAN/ULC S530 listed for Heat Detectors
This sensor must be installed in compliance with the control panel system
installation manual. The installation must meet the requirements of the Au-
thority Having Jurisdiction (AHJ). Sensors offer maximum performance when
installed in compliance with CAN/ULC S524.
Before installing sensors, please read the system wiring and installation man-
ual thoroughly. This manual provides detailed information on sensor spac-
ing, placement, zoning, and special applications. Copies of these manuals are
available from Mircom.
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Models MIX-5351APA, MIX-5351RAPA, and MIX-5351HAPA are field program-
mable intelligent sensors that use a state-of-the-art thermistor sensing circuit
for fast response. These sensors are designed to provide open area protection
with 50-foot spacing capability as approved by CAN/ULC S530. The intelligent
temperature sensor can be programmed as either a 135°F fixed temperature
sensor, a rate of rise and 135°F fixed temperature sensor or a 190°F high tem-
perature sensor through the Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP).
Two LEDs on each sensor light to provide a local, visible sensor indication.
Remote LED annunciator capability is available as an optional accessory
(Part No. RA100ZA). Rotary dial switches are provided for setting the sensor's
address. (See Figure 1.)

Mircom panels offer different feature sets across different models. As a re-
sult, certain features of the Intelligent Programmable Temperature Sensors
may be available on some control panels, but not on others. MIX-5351APA,
MIX-5351RAPA, and MIX-5351HAPA support Advanced Protocol and CLIP
(Classic Loop Interface Protocol) mode.
The possible features available if supported by the control panel include:
1. The sensor’s LEDs can operate in three ways—on, off, and blinking–and
they can be set to red, green, or amber. This is controlled by the panel.
2. The remote output may be synchronized to the LED operation or con-
trolled independent of the LEDs. Please refer to the operation manual for
the ULC listed control unit for specific operation of these models
3. Devices are point addressable up to 159 addresses.
4. The heat sensor operates as a programmable heat detector.
