Abstract

A recess-mounted detector assembly has a housing configured to be recess mounted in a structure located in a preselected zone. The housing has an interior space configured to receive a detecting device operable to detect a condition in an airstream in the preselected zone. A cover removably attaches to the housing and has an aperture for allowing an airflow of air from the airstream in the preselected zone into the interior space of the housing. A base plate is mounted in the housing for undergoing pivotal movement between a first position, in which the base plate separates the interior space of the housing into a first compartment configured to receive the detecting device and a second compartment disposed between the open end of the housing and the base plate, and a second position in which the base plate is pivoted toward the open end of the housing to enable access to the first compartment from the open end of the housing.
