Retro-Fit Manual v1.1
Chemetron Digital Alarm
www.amico.com
The Amico Retro-fit Alarm will allow an existing Chemetron/Allied to be replaced, without moving the existing back
box and pipe-stubs.
The LCD filler frame enables the Amico Alert-3 LCD alarm front assembly to sit on the wall of the existing alarm panel
box. The filler frame acts like a spacer between the Chemetron/Allied box and the front assembly. Please make sure
that the power source at the breaker panel is turned off before replacing the power supply. The gas supply may also
be required to be shut off.
Remove the front frame and the display modules from the back box. Remove
all internal components of the Chemetron alarm (mother board, power supply,
sensors and all wiring).
Ensure that the back box is clear of ALL screws, studs, stand-offs and insert tabs.
Bend the lower front lip of the alarm box. Ensure that the lip is flat.
Add the power supply to the far left corner of the back box assembly. Use
4 tapping screws to hold power supply into box. Use tapping screws for
grounding wires. Please note that tapping screws, or any other screws, are not
supplied by Amico.
Remove the brass hex fitting from the upper portion of the box pipe-stub
assembly. Replace it with the brass hex and female quick-connect fitting
supplied by Amico.
Connect into place the Alert-3 sensor, which contains the male quick-connect
fitting, instead of a DISS fitting (nut and nipple).
Add Amico filler box to the wall surface. Ensure that the box on the wall is in the
center of the filler box.
Install front assembly and follow the “Installation and Operation Manual of
Alert-3 Alarm” (Also supplied with retro-fit alarm).
