INSTALLATION
4.1 General Warnings
These instructions have been designed to assist users of the ISUPS with installation. The ISUPS is
required to be installed into a system along with appropriate devices providing input signals (sensors)
and output control/indication (fan controls, beacons, sirens, SCADA systems etc.).
Before the ISUPS can be installed, there are a number of things that need to be considered and
understood to prevent incorrect or unsafe operation of the ISUPS or the system into which it is installed.
Along with relevant competence, and an understanding of the target application, the following points
should be considered:
4.1.1 Ensure that the information provided in this user manual, particularly Section 6, is fully
understood.
It is extremely important that the limitations and functionality of the ISUPS are understood to prevent
incorrect installation and use from creating a potentially dangerous risk. If in doubt as to the nature of the
limitations or their implication, consult a competent authority such as a supervisor or Ampcontrol
applications engineer.
4.1.2 Ensure that the application into which the ISUPS is being installed has been properly
defined, designed and approved.
Any system intended to mitigate the risk of injury needs to be properly designed and implemented. Such
a system must be the result of structured risk analysis with the outcomes used to define the system
requirements. These requirements, in turn, will guide the choice of instrumentation, logic solvers and
actuators needed to implement the system. Understanding the needs of the system will ensure proper
selection of equipment.
4.1.3 Ensure that the ISUPS will properly perform the required functions within the system
design.
It is important to understand how the ISUPS is intended to interact with other equipment within a system.
For safe and reliable use, it is crucial that the ISUPS
’ operation is not compromised by incompatibilities
with connected equipment.
4.1.4 Ensure that the intended devices to be connected to the ISUPS are compatible with the
entity parameters as specified on the ISUPS certificate of compliance (conditions of safe use).
Check the terminal I.S parameters of all devices intended to be connected to the ISUPS against the
ISUPS certificate of conformance. If in doubt, consult a competent authority, or contact an Ampcontrol
applications engineer.
4.1.5 Modifications of any form to the ISUPS are prohibited.
The ISUPS as supplied has been designed and manufactured to comply with the requirements of
electrical standards. If modifications of any form are made to the ISUPS, the equipment may no longer
be fit for use. If any modifications or damage to the ISUPS is evident, do not use the equipment and
contact Ampcontrol for advice.
CAUTION!
The user is responsible for maintaining the Explosion Protection rating
by complying with the “List of Special Conditions” outlined in the
certification (See APPENDIX B
