Installation Guide
2.1
How to Use this Guide
This Installation Guide provides you with simple
guidelines to install a fire control panel system, quickly
and safely. The guide does not describe panel
configuration procedures as it is covered by the relevant
section of this manual.
For each stage in the panel installation and
commissioning procedures a brief description is given
of its purpose, complete with detail drawings, flow
diagrams and/or other graphics, wherever possible, to
make the instructions easy to follow.
2.2
Pre-installation Check List
Before installing your control panel or fitting detectors,
you must first ensure that the following criteria have been
met. Failure to do this may not only result in damage to
the equipment, but may also cause problems when
commissioning the equipment or adversely affect its
performance.
2.2.1
Some Panel DO’s and DON’T’s
Before selecting a location for the panel and detectors,
DO make sure that:
a) The ambient temperature is in the range:
+5
°
C to 35
°
C
and
b) The relative humidity is between:
5% and 95% (non-condensing)
c. The panel is wall mounted in a position which allows
clear visibility of displays and easy access to
operating controls. The height above floor level should
be chosen such that the middle of the panel is just
above normal eye level (approximately 1.5 metres).
d) DO NOT locate the panel where it is exposed to high
levels of moisture
