Potter ARB Addressable Relay Base

Features Two form C relays as part of the base assembly Works independent of the sensors attached May be mapped to any device connected to the Control LED to indicate that the unit is active included in the base for high and low voltage power limited non power limited connections Maximum standby current 325 Maximum alarm current 50 mA aux power includes a 5 year warranty 7165 0328 0194 Addressable Relay Base 6 ARB is combination sensor base with a relay module included The base has a locking feature the sensor that may be used or removed in the field Once the head is removed the relay is accessible in the bottom of the unit relay module is a uniquely addressed module that provides two form C contacts The first relay is rated at 8 amps at 30 VDC 240VAC The second relay is rated at 2 amps at 30 VDC or 240 VAC The ARB has a divider providing means for separation of voltage and non power limited connections from the power limited regulated Signaling Line Circuit SLC ARB is designed that once activated both relays change position The activation of the unit is identified by a LED on the unit red The unit is reset when the panel is reset The panel will support any combination of sensors or modules on the SLC ARB occupies one address on the loop Base Mounting should be mounted directly on the electrical box The mounting holes are configured for a single gang double gang octagon 4 square box the Address addressable module smoke sensor heat detector and combination sensor detector must have the address set before the device to the SLC loop The address is set using the hand held device programmer or the addressing feature on the panel connecting a device to the SLC loop take the following precautions to prevent potential damage to SLC or device Verify following to the device is removed wiring is correctly installed wiring has no open or short circuits discrepancies and notify appropriate personnel Feature include a locking feature that prevents removal of the detector and removal of the base cover without using a tool To eliminate this feature break off the locking tab refer to Figure 1 and then install the detector 1 Eliminate the Locking Feature the plastic tab by twisting it toward a center the plastic tab by twisting it toward a center the base of the base Electric Signal Company LLC St Louis MO Cust Service 866 240 1870 Tech Support 866 956 1211 Canada 888 882 1833 www pottersignal com 1 OF 2 8830010 REV C06 13PRINTED IN USAARBAddRessABle RelAy BAsefirealarmresources com To remove the detector from the base once the locking feature has been activated insert a small screwdriver into the slot on the to push the plastic tab while simultaneously turning the detector head counter clockwise refer to Figure 2 2 Removing of detector head from base a small bladed screwdriver to the locking tab To remove the base cover from the lower enclosure once the locking feature has been activated insert a small screwdriver into slot on the on the base to push the plastic tab while simultaneously turning the detector head counter clockwise refer to 3 3 Removing of base cover from the lower enclosure tab current for SLC 1 Working voltage range for SLC Working voltage range for 24V device requires Aux Power current for 24V Include indicator indicator output style rating temperature range relative humidity range Maximum number of addresses per zone Maximum number of lighted indicators in alarm per zone Color Dimensions without detector to 24.0 V to 28.0 V mA D C LED form C N C COM N O 240VAC 8A 30VDC 240VAC 2A 30VDC to 120 0 to 49 to 93 Non condensing White inches 54.4mm inches 150mm The standby current is the current that the device consumes when the device is in a non activated condition and where communication current is transmitted to the fire alarm control panel FHA with ARB should be installed under 120 Installation temperature range of ARB is 32 to 120 specifications are subject to change without notice For further information contact Potter Electric Signal Company Support 2 OF 2 8830010 REV C06 13PRINTED IN USAARBAddRessABle RelAy BAsefirealarmresources com
