Description

The Gent 805580 is the S-Quad removal tool kit for removing S-Quad detector heads from their fitted bases and fitting them back into place. It includes the dust-cover remover attachment, which screws onto the tool and grips the cover with a suction pad. The cradle also holds a dust cover while it is pushed onto the detector. To remove an unlocked head, turn it anticlockwise and lower it from the base; refit it by turning clockwise until it clicks and the alignment marks meet. A head secured with the base locking peg needs direct access to release that peg before it can be removed.

The 805580 kit handles S-Quad detector heads during removal and refitting. It also serves the S-Quad Self-Test and S4M ranges.

Read the full technical description

The 805580 kit handles S-Quad detector heads during removal and refitting. It also serves the S-Quad Self-Test and S4M ranges.

For head removal, engage the tool and turn the head anticlockwise to its stop before lowering it out of the base. For refitting, hold the head in the tool and turn it clockwise into the base until it clicks and the alignment marks meet.

The included dust-cover remover screws onto the main tool. Its pad grips the dust cover so that the cover can be pulled off. To fit a cover, place it inside the cradle and push it onto the detector.

A detector secured with the base locking peg cannot be removed remotely with the standard extractor. Release the locking peg by direct access before turning the head out of the base.

FAQs

What does the 805580 removal tool kit do?

The 805580 handles S-Quad detector heads during removal and refitting. The head sits in the tool while it is turned anticlockwise to release it from the base or clockwise to seat it again. The kit also includes a screw-on dust-cover remover, which grips the cover with a suction pad. The tool's cradle holds a dust cover while it is pushed onto the detector. A locked detector needs its base locking peg released by direct access.

How is an S-Quad detector removed and refitted?

Engage the tool with the detector head and turn it anticlockwise until it reaches its stop, then lower the head from the base. To refit the detector, hold it in the tool and offer it to the base. Turn it clockwise until it rises into place, then continue until it clicks and the alignment marks on the head and base meet. If the base locking peg is fitted, release it by direct access before removal.

Is the dust-cover remover included?

Yes. The 805580 kit includes the dust-cover remover attachment. It screws onto the main tool and uses a pad to grip the cover. Pressing the pad against the dust cover creates the grip needed to pull the cover from the detector. For fitting a cover, place it inside the tool cradle and push it onto the detector, then withdraw the tool. The kit also supports removal and refitting of S-Quad detector heads.

Can the tool remove a locked detector?

A head secured by the base locking peg needs direct access to release the peg before removal. The standard extractor cannot remotely release a locked head. Once the peg has been pushed in, turn the head anticlockwise until it reaches its stop and remove it from the base. For an unlocked head, the tool supports the detector during that turning and lowering action. Refitting uses clockwise rotation until the head clicks into its seated position.

How does the tool fit a dust cover?

Place the dust cover inside the tool's cradle, offer it to the S-Quad detector and push it onto the assembly. Withdraw the tool once the cover is in place. Cover removal uses the included screw-on attachment: press its pad against the cover to form a grip, then pull the cover away. These are separate uses of the kit, alongside supporting the detector head for anticlockwise removal and clockwise refitting into its base.
