In the event of a system alarm or system service the audible alarm can be silenced with the “Alarm Silence” button.
When the “Alarm Silence” button is depressed, the “Alarm Silence” LED will illuminate and the other
LEDs will
continue to show the alarm or service system fault status. The alarm will remain silent for 6 hours and will then
resound to remind personnel that a problem condition is present
.
Model 22408 ONLY. Pressing the Amerex Logo button five times will put the panel into
Isolation Mode.
During isolation mode the following panel conditions will be in effect:
•
The green System OK LED will blink continuously indicating the panel has power but is in isolation mode.
The Amber colored Service System LED will stay steady on. The audible alarm will chirp every 30 seconds
to indicate the panel is in isolation mode.
•
In isolation mode the firing circuit is disabled. All other circuits, (detection, pressure switch, relay) remain
operational. Isolation mode can be used for testing, transportation, machine maintenance etc.
•
In isolation mode if either detection circuit is activated the red FIRE LED will illuminate, the audible alarm
will sound and the relay will begin countdown. This condition would remain until the source of the alarm
is cleared.
•
The panel will remain in isolation mode until mode is deactivated.
•
To deactivate mode
, insure the red FIRE LED is not illuminated, press and hold the Amerex Logo button
for five seconds. Panel returns to normal mode green LED System OK illuminated unless fault condition
are present. If fault conditions are present, panel flashes standard fault codes at the Service System LED.
•
Relay Transfer (engine shutdown) is indicated by a RED LED at the Relay Reset Button.
To Isolate the Model 17310 panel simply unplug the activation cable
–
and this will put the panel into fault. This
should be done at the connection closest to the panel.
Control panels do not require any specific maintenance but should the control panel become dirty it can be wiped
over with a damp cloth and should then be dried with a dry, lint free cloth. Detergents or solvents should not be
used to clean the panel and care must be taken that water does not
Enter the enclosure.
Testing of the extinguishant system should only be carried out by trained personnel and must be done with
appropriate isolation measures in place to ensure that accidental discharge of the extinguishant agent is avoided
and any malfunction should be reported to the fire alarm maintenance company immediately.
TroubleShooting & Fault Codes
In the event of a system fault in any of the supervised circuits, an
audible alarm will sound and the yellow "Service System" LED will flash
once every ten seconds in a coded sequence to indicate the circuit
presenting with a fault.
If a fault is detected there is a five second delay before notification. For
power supply faults, the delay for notification is 20 seconds.
The audible alarm can be silenced with the “Alarm Silence” button.
When pressed, the “Alarm Silence” LED will illuminate and the other
Fault LEDs will remain on. The alarm will remain silent for 6 hours and
will then resound to remind personnel that a fault condition is present.
This battery should be
replaced every 2 years
to ensure proper system function or if the
panel indicates that there is a fault in the backup circuit. To replace:
1.
Remove the four screws on the front of the panel to remove the front cover.
2.
Disconnect the battery connector and remove old battery.
3.
Replace battery (P/N 18156).
