Notes on system

installation

The power-up of the control panel and

commissioning of the system is done by the

Servicing organisation.

Installation requirements

It is recommended that the installer follow the general requirements of

BS5839:Part 1:2002, which is the code of practice relating to fire

detection and alarm systems for buildings and BS5839:Part 8:1997,

which is the code of practice for the design installation and servicing of

voice alarm systems. The installer must follow the relevant parts of

BS7671 : 1992 Requirements for Electrical installations, IEE wiring

regulations 16th edition if installation is in the United Kingdom, UK.

Second fix installation

To prevent the possibility of damage or dirt degrading the performance or

appearance of the products, the installation of second fix items should be

delayed until all major building work in the area is complete.

� The installation of all outstanding parts are usually

carried out during commissioning of the system.

Fixture and fittings

It is the installers responsibility to provide adequate fixtures and fittings

for the type of construction surface onto which a product is to be

installed, whilst utilising the fixing points on the respective product. As an

aid to this decision, the weight and overall size of each full assembly

together with implications on cable entries and routing should be taken

into consideration.

� All these procedures assume that the cable, gland,

steel box (BESA box) and other related accessories are provided

by the installer.

As fitted drawings

The installer should acquire site specific information from the interested

parties, for details on the location of products for installation. The

acquired information together with this guide and the relevant standards

should be used to assist the work.

Each product assembly can be identified from its package label. The

contents of all packages should be checked for any discrepancies.

Cable type and routing

Appropriate attention must be given to ensure the correct cable type is

installed in accordance with as fitted drawings, site specific information

and recommendations of BS5839 Part 1 : 2002. The cables must be

installed using cable manufacturers recommended fixing and

accessories.

Fire sensor covers

Each fire sensor may be supplied with a plastic dust cover. If supplied,

the cover must be fitted to prevent dust and dirt from the building work

contaminating the fire sensor.

Earth continuity

All earth connection points should be clean to provide a good

electrical conductivity path. To maintain the earth continuity: all

earth leads and fittings provided should be installed, the loop cable

screen must be continued through each system device on the loop

circuit, whether the earth is connected to the device or not.

� Do not use any part of building structure for earthing.

Some of the system products having metal enclosures have a zinc

coating around the cable termination points, the coating provides a

good electrical conductivity path for cable earth termination. The zinc

coating on metal enclosures should not be damaged. Any damage will

expose bare metal, which can corrode and make a poor earth

connection.

Power supply

The power to the system is derived from the mains and battery supplies.

Before servicing the system ensure both mains and battery supplies are

disconnected.

Mains supply

The Mains Supply to mains powered equipment must be via a 2-pole

unswitched 5A fused spur unit (Disconnect device). The device must

disconnect both poles and must have a minimum gap of 3mm. The

Disconnect device should be available as part of the building installation

and must be easily accessible after installation is complete.

� All mains powered equipment must be earthed.

Local Manual Call Point

To comply with the requirements of EN54 : Part 2 : 1997 a conventional

manual call point must be installed near the main control panel. The call

point must be wired to the monitored line input of the control panel.

During commissioning of the system the Command Build No 250

associated with the monitored line input must be set up to evacuate all

sectors without delay.

Failure to install and configure a local manual call point in the manner

described above when delays are set up on the system will result in the

panel not complying to EN54 : Part 2 : 1997.

System wiring

� If instructed the installer may need to terminate as well as connect the cables to the appropriate terminal blocks.

Cable separation

Where the outgoing and return cables of a loop covers more than the equivalent of one zone they must not run together, for example, either close to

the Control Panel or in a service duct. There should be as much physical separation as possible between the cables and the mechanical protection

of the cable should be to a particularly high standard. This is to minimise the risk of accidental damage to both cables.

To minimize electromagnetic interference with fire alarm signals it is recommended that there is cable separation between fire alarm cables and the

cables, conduit and trunking of other services. There should be separation from the mains supply cable.

Requirements of cables

The British Standard BS5839 Part 1 : 2002 Code of practice for system

design, installation, commissioning and maintenance states the

requirements for standard and fire resisting cables in Clause 26.2 section

d and e.

"d) Standard fire resisting cables should meet PH 30 classification

when tested in accordance with EN50200 and maintain circuit integrity if

exposed to the following test:

- a sample of the cable is simultaneously exposed to flame at a

temperature of 830ºC - 0 +40ºC and mechanical shock for 15min,

followed by simultaneous exposure to water spray and mechanical shock

for a further 15min.

e) Enhanced fire resisting cables should meet the PH120 classification

when tested in accordance with EN 50200 and maintain circuit integrity if

exposed to the following test:

- a single sample of the cable is simultaneously exposed to flame at a

temperature of 930ºC - 0 +40ºC and mechanical shock for a period of

60min, followed by simultaneous exposure to water spray and

mechanical shock for a further 60min."

� The cables listed in this manual are those that have

been tested for EMC compliance with the system products.

� All fire resisting cables for use in the system must

meet the requirements of BS5839 : Part 1 : 2002., refer to the

cable manufacturers data.

Loop Cable usage

� There is a maximum limit of 1Km loop cable usage

allowed per loop circuit. This maximum limit is the sum of the

cable used on main loop circuit, spurs off main loop circuit, plus

cable runs to all input / output lines off loop powered interface

units installed on the same loop.

There is a further maximum limit of 100m cable run allowed per

input / output line off loop powered interface unit.

Repeat indicator to Control panel cable

A maximum of 1Km cable distance is allowed between Control Panel and

Repeat indicator panel

� Belden No. 9842 EIA RS485 Applications, O/A Beldfoil®

Braid having two twisted pairs

Loop cable

Loop cable carries both data and power supply, therefore its selection is

important. Note the following:

� In countries where the European EMC directive is in force,

only EMC Compliant cables are to be used.

� The loop cable usage must not exceed 1Km. This includes the

cable usage on main loop, spur circuits and plus cable runs to

all line modules off interface inputs on the same loop.

� Single pair cable must be used. It is NOT permissible to run

mixed loops or outgoing and return pairs in a multi core cable,

due to inadequate separation and possible electrical

interference problems.

� Each core of the loop cable must not be less than 1.5mm2

cross section area.

� the cable screen must be capable of being earthed at each

system device (outstation).

� Red is the preferred cover sheath for fire applications.

� The specified loop circuit cables are also suitable for wiring

master alarm, auxiliary relay, input/output lines and mains

supply.

� The cables marked * utilise laminated aluminium tape

with a tinned drain wire for electrostatic screening. Under certain

environmental conditions galvanic action may take place

between the aluminium and the drain wire. This will severely

degrade EMC performance as the foil to drain wire impedance

will increase. Therefore these wires should be installed in line

with these instructions and in accordance with the

environmental conditions as specified by the manufacturer.

Mains Supply cable

The mains supply cable must be a standard fire resisting type and should

meet PH30 classification.

Devices (Outstations) per loop

� It is important that redundancy is built into the system to accommodate future expansions.

The number of devices (outstations) on one loop circuit can be limited by the total number of addresses available, the electrical load on the circuit,

the maximum cable length and other geographical considerations.

� A loop circuit must not cover more than 10,000m2of floor area of a protected site.

� In total a maximum of 200 devices are allowed per loop circuit.

As a general rule allow 1000 load factor per loop circuit, for precise information on battery standby capability the Battery Loop Loading calculator is

used during system design stage.

Loop circuit

The two analogue loop circuits can each accept connection of addressable devices / outstations, up to 200 maximum per circuit. To maintain earth

continuity on a loop, the loop cable screen must be continued through each system device, whether the earth is connected to a device or not.

�A loop circuit must not cover more than 10,000m2 of floor area of a protected site.

A spur circuit must always be taken from the "line common" terminals of a 3 ways device.

A spur must not cover more than the equivalent of one zone as defined in BS5839 Part 1.

As every device has a loop isolator, the application of more than 32 devices does not require any special consideration.

Master alarm circuits

The two master alarm circuits accept the connection of conventional

alarm sounders including the conventional Sounder and Strobe products.

Auxiliary relay circuits

The auxiliary relays 1 and 2 contacts can be used to control external

equipment, such as an automatic dialler that makes the call for fire

fighting action. The external equipment can be installed a maximum of

100m cable distance away from the main fire panel. The relays can be

individually re-configured to operate with either fire, fault or disablement

event in the system. The relay operation can also be delayed by up to

10 minutes and can be set up to operate in a normally energised or

de-energised state. The contacts should be powered from an

independent power supply, if required.

Clean contacts

The clean contacts can be used to signal plant equipment, such as a lift

control system. The plant equipment can be a maximum of 100m cable

distance away from the fire panel. The relay will always operate with the

master alarms. The contacts should be powered from an independent

power supply, if required.


Up to four repeat indicator panels can be connected directly to the fire

panel at Port 0. The furthest repeat indicator panel can be installed a

maximum of 1Km cable distance away from the fire panel. The Port 0 is

configured for Repeat mode and set up for RS485 communication and

the baud rate is selected during the commissioning stage.

Monitored input circuit

The monitored input at the fire panel is activated by an external switch

installed a maximum of up to 100m cable distance away from the fire

panel. The input is monitored for both short and open circuit fault. When

the input is active it triggers a command build number 250 of the fire

panel. The command build action is configured during the commissioning

of the system. For example the action can be to sound the alarms of the

system for the duration the push button is pressed.

RS232 / RS485 Ports

The ports 1 and 2 of the fire panel offer RS232 and RS485

communication, having configurable mode of operation and baud rate

which are set during the commissioning of the system. The ports are

used to connect an external printer or commissioning tool.

USB Port

The port 3 is an USB port for future expansion.

h. Re-assemble the cover assembly to the main

assembly with the socket head screw. To do this:

I) Fit the spacer/cover gasket, if used.

ii) Insert the glass in a sloping position.

iii) Hang the test key in its operating position.

iv) Place the cover/glass gasket, if used, over the glass

with its bevelled edge outwards.

v) Hook the cover onto the main assembly securing the

two parts with the allen screw, and remove the

test key to leave the call point in its normal

operating state.

� Check the cover/glass gasket is not trapped around

the circular rim of the cover.

vi) Fit the socket head screw to secure the cover onto

the main assembly. A weather resistant version is

supplied with a longer socket head screw.

� Semi-Flush Fixing: When flush fixing the call point,

the red plastic back box supplied must be flushed into the wall.

The procedure for installation is similar to the surface fixing

version except a MCP SEMI FLUSH KIT containing a flush plate

is required and must be installed between the back box and

spacer assembly.

The water resistant call points cannot be flush fixed.

Test

Push the test key through the hole on the underside of the call point to

engage the test cam mechanism. Push to operate the cam mechanism.

At this point the test key is retained in the call point. Pulling the test key

out will reset the glass.

Single channel interface

(loop powered)

This Single channel interface unit operates directly from the loop. It has

1 channel that can be configured as either an input or an output.

When the unit is set up as an output, the input channel can still be used

as a verification input of the output action.

When the unit is configured as a single input, a line module must be

installed and can be up to 100m cable distance away. The two position

switch on the module must be set to input.

When the unit is configured for multiple input, an end of line capacitor

unit must be fitted to the last input. If the multiple inputs are from manual

call points, there must be a 470 ohm resistor in series with the contacts.

As a relay output the unit provides voltage free change over contacts

rated 5A at 24Vdc / 5A at 250Vac. The relay output of the interface

operates with a system sector.

Four channel interface

(loop powered)

This interface unit is a 4 channel device that operates directly from the

loop and does not need a separate power supply. The interface must be

used in conjunction with one or more of the following interface options:

� Line modules

Provides a single channel input or output, the output contacts

of which are rated at 24Vdc 2A. Up to 4 may be used in

conjunction with the interface. Line modules connect to the

interface with 2 wires. All four line modules may be housed

within the interface enclosure. Alternatively, any line module

may be housed in the host equipment; the limit of the 2-wire

interconnection is 100 metres with a maximum of 1km for

each loop.

� Key switches 4-position door

2-way key switch - max 4 per interface

3-way key switch - max 2 per interface

The 4-position door replaces the standard door of the

interface. The door may be assembled with up to 4 key

switches. Key switches are available in 2-way and 3-way

switch configurations and include LEDs to indicate status.

Key switches connect to the interface via push-on connectors.

Label plates are built-in to each key switch position. Unused

positions may be covered using a blanking plate (supplied).

� Power supply unit

The supply unit provides up to four 240 Vac, 5 amp rated

single pole changeover relay contacts in a separate enclosure.

Each relay is controlled by one channel of the interface. They

are interconnected by a 2-wire cable. The maximum length of

this cable is 100 metres. One relay is supplied with the supply

unit, additional relays up to 3 more can be installed and must

be ordered separately
