Siemens ABHW-4BZ Intelligent Audible Base, Intelligent Audible Base

Instructions ABHW 4BZ Audible Base Model ABHW 4BZ audible base from Siemens Industry consists of a standard base combined with an audible It is an intelligent supervised audible base which 6 selectable tone patterns 2 volume levels and 2 power types for alarm loop power or external power using system configuration tool when ABHW 4BZ used with FD UL compatible detectors refer to fire control panels detector and and Volume Selection The ABHW audible bases in the same device loop are fully with FD UL detectors and also support RL HC remote lamp The ABHW 4BZ provides Steady 3 Temporal 4 Temporal 4 low power March time and Canadian March time 30 is fully compatible with all Siemens addressable see Compatible detectors section and recognizes detector type automatically ABHW 4BZ is a UL268 ULC S529 listed smoke detector device which combines detector base and device functions It meets or exceeds 85dB at 10 foot requirement as specified in UL268 When used in with listed compatible Siemens equipment the may be used in lieu of single multiple station smoke to achieve enhanced system level functionality ABHW 4BZ can also meet requirement specified in UL464 and ULC 525 except 520Hz requirements for Industry Inc Infrastructure Physical Specifications temperature 32 120 0 49 humidity 10 95 RH Non Condensing electrical mounting boxes 4 square gang box with 2.5 inch

current RMS max Loop powered High dBA dBA mA mA powered High dBA Low dBA mA mA If the alarm current of ABHW 4BZ is energized by an power supply any UL listed 24VDC regulated supply including the aux power output of XLS Desigo Safety Modular Cerberus PRO Modular FC2025 FC2050 FV2025 FV2050 and PAD 3 PAD 4 PAD 5 can used refer to Figure 3 or a 24VDC NAC such as PAD refer to Figure 6 ZIC 4A FireFinder XLS Fire Safety Modular Cerberus PRO Modular zone card NAC refer to Figure 5 and NAC from refer to Figure 7.1 NAC from FC2025 FC2050 FV2025 FV2050 FC922 refer to Figure 7.2 The alarm current of ABHW 4BZ CANNOT be energized by 24V FWR power supply The maximum number of ABHW 4BZ is related to the max rating and the power line resistance of the external supplies applied on the ABHW 4BZ Refer to the installation instructions of the auxiliary power supply Refer to Figure 1 for Powered The maximum number powered ABHW 4BZ is limited by the max load and devices loaded in loop Refer to APPENDIX A this document to calculate the max number of ABHW 4BZ audible bases The maximum device line resistance cannot exceed the device line resistance specified in the compatible T tapping of the notification appliance circuit is not allowed The NAC output must be set to a steady DC if it is used for ABHW 4BZ must be configured by the panel when it is with FD UL detectors see table 1 Failure to the ABHW 4BZ will cause problems For additional please refer to the manual of related panel Also for with H Series detectors see table 2 it does not require configuration as it will function the same as an ADBH 11 will not be synchronized to Figure 8,9 Audible base Model ABHW 4BZ should interconnected as shown in the Installation Wiring and wired to the specific system modules and panels following the appropriate instructions For with FireFinder XLS Desigo Fire Safety PRO Modular FC2005 FC901 system note any limitations on number of audible bases permitted on each notification circuit or 24VDC regulated power supply depending the total cable resistance and load of each circuit See Ratings section Recommended wire size 18 AWG min 14 AWG max larger than 14 AWG can damage the connector detector base comes from the factory prewired All and initiating circuits are connected directly to the of the ABHW 4BZ audible base using the four position blocks Route all wires out from the outlet box When the alarm LED viewing is critical position the LED on the base in the intended direction Refer to Figure Make connections directly to the audible base terminals on the back of the base Refer to the related diagram After all bases are installed check loop continuity For loop continuity check refer to the DPU or Manual a FireFinder XLS If loop continuity is acceptable proceed with detector head a 30 foot center spacing 900 sq ft as a starting point to in NFPA Standard 72 National Fire Alarm Code CAN ULC S524 in a detector installation layout This is based on ideal conditions ceiling no air and no physical obstructions In all installations in special circumstances like computer room under locate the detector on the ceiling a minimum of 6 from a side wall or on a wall between 4 and 6 inches the ceiling questions arise regarding detector placement it is extremely that the drawings provided or approved by Siemens Inc or by its authorized distributors be followed The placements shown on these drawings were chosen a careful evaluation of all facets of protecting the area factors such as air current temperature air pressure and the nature of the fire load are considered Special consideration is given to room or configuration and the type of ceiling sloped or flat smooth beamed Siemens Industry Inc s extensive experience in design of fire detection systems assures optimum detector and is reflected in these drawings Follow sound judgment made by qualified personnel fire alarm control panels Type Fire Safety 50 point panel
