Preventing Water Damage

Water damage to the fire system can be caused by moisture entering the cabinet through the conduits. Conduits
that are installed to enter the top of the cabinet are most likely to cause water problems. Installers should take
reasonable precautions to prevent water from entering the cabinet. Water damage is not covered under warranty.

Removing the 6820 / 6820EVS Assembly from the Housing

If it should ever be necessary to remove the control panel assembly from the cabinet for repair, do so by
unscrewing the nuts that connect the control panel assembly to the cabinet. Do not attempt to disassemble the
circuit boards. See Section 3.7 for location of the nuts.
