The FSM consists of a stainless steel pipe/blade assembly with mounting ring, a solid-state battery-powered controller in a weather-proof enclosure, and a jacketed cable wiring harness. The FSM is installed outdoors on top of the chimney of a gas-fired fireplace and is electrically interlocked with the appliance's safety control. The damper automatically opens the flue outlet when the fireplace is turned on and automatically closes off the flue outlet when the fireplace is turned off. By closing off the flue outlet when the fireplace is not in use, the damper prevents drafts and conserves energy by preventing heat in the building from escaping through an open flue. The Flue Sentinel° is design certified by the Canadian Standards Association (CSA) to ANSI Z21 .66 Automatic Damper Devices For Use with Gas-Fired Appliances and is covered by U.S. Patent No. 6,915,799. AWARNING: Do NOT install this damper on a chimney burning solid fuel such as wood. Do NOT install this damper on a chimney used for venting central heating or water heating appliances.

The damper controller motor then rotates the damper blade, which is indexed to a cam, to the open position to allow products of combustion to pass through the flue outlet. The cam proves the damper is in the open position and sends the millivolt signal to the main gas valve, which fires the main burner. When the fireplace is turned off, the fireplace control removes the millivolt signal to the damper controller, shutting off the main burner. The damper controller then waits 30 seconds* then rotates the damper blade to the closed position and resets itself for the next time the fireplace is turned on. .__ _ *Average time delay at 450mV. Time delay ranges from 10 to 50 seconds and will be longer at a higher voltad ,har}e?qt02o a lower voltage. U / L page 7 of 12 P/N 0247-00 Rev G41118i BUILDING DEPARTMENT SEQUENCE OF OPERATION (3.3V) When the fireplace is turned on, a 3.3 Vdc signal is sent by the fireplace control to the damper controller. The damper controller motor then rotates the damper blade, which is indexed to a cam, to the open position to allow products of combustion to pass through the flue outlet. The cam proves the damper is in the open position and sends the 3.3 Vdc signal to the main gas valve, which fires the main burner. When the fireplace is turned off, the fireplace control removes the 3.3 Vdc signal to the damper controller, shutting off the main burner. The damper controller then waits 30 seconds then rotates the damper blade to the closed position and resets itself for the next time the fireplace is turned on. A CAUTION: Use appropriate personal protective equipment for eye, face, and hand safety before proceeding with the installation! INSTALLATION PROCEDURE FOR REMOTE BATTERY LOCATION Note: The controller's circuit board includes battery connector on 4-pin control, as well as provides a bat- tery plug for original installation method, See Figure 5. Unless it is desired to have the battery installed within the FSM atop the chimney, leave the battery connector unused. If the battery is to be installed in the fireplace area, the battery will not be connected to the circuit board inside the FSM. If the battery is to be installed in the FSM, follow the steps given in the procedure for FSM Battery Location Installation. -'� •..` ti s Figure 5 Figure 6 1. At the fireplace, determine a good location for the remote battery that is protected from moisture, potential physical damage,and significant heat sources such as direct exposure to open flame or metal parts that may become hot during fireplace operation. The remote battery housing may be buried within pumice rock, glass beads or other insulating material if the location becomes no warmer than 160 degrees F during prolonged operation. AWARNING: Ensure that the battery is protected from physical damage, excessive heat, and potential moisture exposure! Locate the battery such that potential fire or explosion from battery failure or mistreatment will not cause damage or injury. The battery is designed with safety features intended to prevent these occurrences but may not give protection in all circumstances. DO NOT install the battery within a flammable enclosure or area, and protect from moisture in all cases. AWARNING: ENSURE THAT THE BATTERY IS NOT CONNECTED �� TO THE BATTERY WIRING HARNESS BEFORE PROCEEDING % . WITH THE INSTALLATION! , " '> 2. Connect the supplied Battery Wiring Harness to the gas valve and . FSM control cable, as shown in the wiring diagram. See typical installation as shown in Figure 7.

Ensure that the wiring is correct and no direct short of the battery wiring harness exists. Probe the battery harness wire terminals with a voltmeter set to Ohms (electrical resistance), touching the red battery wire terminal with the red probe, and the black battery wire terminal with the black probe at the same time; see Figure 8. No less than 1000 (1K) Ohms should be observed on the voltmeter. 4. Snap the Wiring Harness modular wiring connector into place in the matching hole in the end of the battery housing; see Figure 9. The connector may be attached with the red and black wires in either orientation; gently fold back the "ears" on the connector while pushing it into the hole. 5. Loosen the battery box cover screws and remove the battery housing cover. 6. Snap the battery's modular wiring connector into the matching connector on the Wiring Harness, making sure the polarized connectors are correctly aligned. See Figure 10. Do not force the connection;if the connectors do not snap together easily, inspect for proper orientation of the two connectors, and for proper mating pin alignment. DO NOT short the battery connector terminals! 7. Observe the FSM damper for operation. If not already in the closed position, the FSM damper motor should begin running to reach a closed position within 10-50 seconds. The damper motor should stop running upon reaching a closed position. If this does not occur, or if the damper runs continuously, immediately unplug the battery connector and inspect all wiring for proper connections according to the wiring diagram. 8. Place the battery into the battery housing, see Figure 10. Replace the battery housing cover and tighten the cover screws, using care to avoid stripping the screws. DO NOT use alternate screws that are pointed and/or longer than the screws supplied; battery damage and a fire hazard may result! 9. Place the battery and housing in the location chosen in Step 1, making sure to route the wiring to avoid contact with heat sources and potential physical damage. 10. Open the manual gas valve and light the pilot flame, or otherwise prepare the fireplace for operation. Ensure that any insulating or protective covers or shielding of components have been replaced into proper position for safe operation. t , Figure 10 Figure 1 1 02/07/2020 page 9 of 12 P/N 0247-00 Rev CA /M8+ BUILDING DEPARTMENT 11. Turn on the fireplace switch and observe the FSM damper and fireplace for proper operation. The FSM damper motor should begin running immediately and run to a fully open position and stop, before allowing the fireplace to light.
