12 Clintonville Road CT 06472 203 484 7161 203 484 7118 C Alarm Control Panel Installation Maintenance Operating Instruction Manual 15668 Rev 15668 I ECN 97 332 1998 Fire Precautions Adherence to the following will aid in problem free installation with long term relia all solid state electronic devices this system may oper Several different sources of power can be connected erratically or can be damaged when subjected to lightning the fire alarm control panel Disconnect all sources of power transients Although no system is completely immune servicing Control unit and associated equipment may be lightning transients and interferences proper grounding by removing and or inserting cards modules or inter reduce susceptibility Overhead or outside aerial wiring is cables while the unit is energized Do not attempt to service or operate this unit until this manual is read and recommended due to an increased susceptibility to nearby strikes Consult with the Technical Services Depart if any problems are anticipated or encountered System Reacceptance Test after Software Changes AC power and batteries prior to removing or ensure proper system operation this product must be tested in circuit boards Failure to do so can damage circuits with NFPA 72 1993 Chapter 7 after any programming or change in site specific software Reacceptance test all electronic assemblies prior to any drilling filing is required after any change addition or deletion of system or punching of the enclosure When possible make or after any modification repair or adjustment to sys cable entries from the sides or rear Before making modifi hardware or wiring verify that they will not interfere with battery trans and printed circuit board location components circuits system operations or software functions to be affected by a change must be 100 tested In addi not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in lbs Over tight to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently affected may damage threads resulting in reduced terminal con least 10 of initiating devices that are not directly affected by pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal change up to a maximum of 50 devices must also be tested proper system operation verified system contains static sensitive components Always yourself with a proper wrist strap before handling any so that static charges are removed from the body Use suppressive packaging to protect electronic assemblies from the unit the instructions in the installation operating and pro manuals These instructions must be followed to damage to the control panel and associated equipment operation and reliability depend upon proper installation system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0 49O C F and at a relative humidity of 85 RH non condensing 30O C 86O F However the useful life of the system standby and the electronic components may be adversely by extreme temperature ranges and humidity Therefore is recommended that this system and its peripherals be installed an environment with a nominal room temperature of 15 27O C F that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating device loops devices cannot tolerate more than a 10 I R drop from the device voltage Alarm System Limitations automatic fire alarm system typically made up of detectors heat detectors manual pull stations audi warning devices and a fire alarm control with remote noti capability can provide early warning of a developing Such a system however does not assure protection property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire fire alarm system may fail for a variety of reasons detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot the detectors such as in chimneys in walls or roofs or the other side of closed doors Smoke detectors also may sense a fire on another level or floor of a building A sec floor detector for example may not sense a first floor or fire Furthermore all types of smoke detectors ionization and photoelectric types have sensing limita No type of smoke detector can sense every kind of fire by carelessness and safety hazards like smoking in violent explosions escaping gas improper storage of materials overloaded electrical circuits children with matches or arson Smoke detectors must be installed in the room as the control panel and in rooms used by the for the connection of alarm transmission wiring com signaling and or power If detectors are not so a developing fire may damage the alarm system its ability to report a fire Warning This equipment generates uses and can radi radio frequency energy and if not installed and used in with the instruction manual may cause interfer to radio communications It has been tested and to comply with the limits for class A computing device to Subpart B of 15 of FCC Rules which is to provide reasonable protection against such when operated in a commercial environment of this equipment in a residential area is likely to interference in which case the user will be required correct the interference at his own expense installing a fire alarm system may make lower insurance possible it is not a substitute for fire insurance warning devices such as bells may not alert people if devices are located on the other side of closed or partly doors or are located on another floor of a building fire alarm system will not operate without any electrical If AC power fails the system will operate from standby only for a specified time heat detectors may be subject to reduced sensi over time For this reason the rate of rise feature of each should be tested at least once per year by a qualified protection specialist used in the system may not be technically compat with the control panel It is essential to use only equipment for service with your control panel lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a to a central monitoring station may be out of service or disabled most common cause of fire alarm malfunctions however inadequate maintenance All devices and system wiring be tested and maintained by professional fire alarm following written procedures supplies with each System inspection and testing should be scheduled or as required by National and or local fire codes written records of all inspections should be kept Requirements digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radi noise emissions from digital apparatus set out in the Radio
