DISCOVERY PRODUCT GUIDE
Interfaces
A comprehensive range of interfaces for use with Discovery
systems and incorporating the Ampac fire alarm control panels is
available. They are designed to enable fire protection systems to be
engineered simply and effectively without the need for custom-
designed equipment.
These interfaces are available in three types of housing. The
standard interfaces are designed to be surface or flush-mounted
while the DIN-rail versions feature enclosures that clip to a standard
35mm DIN rails (DIN46277) or are screwed to the base of a larger
enclosure. Miniature interfaces use very compact enclosures for
installation into other equipment.
The standard interface range is fitted with bi-directional, short-circuit isolators. These interfaces allow for
easier installation when large numbers of interfaces are required.
The following interfaces may be incorporated into Discovery systems:
•
Input/Output Unit provides a relay output and one monitored input
•
3-channel Input/Output Unit provides 3 relay outputs and 3 monitored inputs
•
Mains Switching Input/Output Unit switches machinery operating at 230V
•
Output Unit provides one relay output
•
Zone Monitor controls a zone of conventional detectors
•
Switch Monitor monitors the operation of a switch
•
Switch Monitor Plus monitors the operation of a switch; also incorporates a time delay
•
Sounder Controller controls the operation of conventional sounders
•
Mini Switch Monitor monitors the operation of a switch and is small enough to fit into other
equipment
