Installation and Mounting
This equipment is designed to be operated from 24V DC supply. This power
supply must be battery backed.
The FPC-2 should be effectively bonded to earth. Failure to ensure that all
conductive accessible parts of this equipment are adequately bonded to
earth will render the equipment unsafe.
This control panel is designed for indoor use only and at temperatures
between -5
0
C (+/- 3) and +40
0
C (+/-2) and with a maximum relative
humidity of 95%. Panels is rated to IP30 and suitable for mounting indoors.
Operation outside of these limits may render the equipment unsafe.
MOUNTING
–
Panel must be securely mounted.
Cables should be connected using cable glands fitted to the knockouts.
DIMENSIONS - 200H x 150W x 50D mm
Connecting to the circuit board
All connections for field wiring are to a
single row of terminals along the top of the
circuit board.
Cabling must comply with the Australian
Standards. The resistance of any cable
must not exceed 25 ohms.
Terminals are capable of accepting wires of
up to 2.5mm
2
.
Power 24v IN
–
24v OUT
The polarity of these terminals is very important. The 24V IN is for connection of the power from a previous unit or a
power supply and the 24V OUT is for connection to further units.
Max Number of FPC-2 Units chained together is 3 using the power IN / OUT link. For additional units need to wire
separately. Power supply will need to consider what current is required to ensure all devices operate correctly.
Connection of Aerosol Units to Activation circuit
These terminals are for the connection of FirePro®
Aerosol
Generators. Test lamps are provided in the terminals to allow
testing of the system before connecting the FirePro®
generators. These test lamps should be removed from the
terminals if a FirePro®
Aerosol Generator is to be fitted.
Any FirePro®
generator outputs that are not being used
should be left with test lamps fitted.
