ORBIS

The TimeSaver Base® is a design

that provides installers with an open

working area with fixing holes shaped

to allow a fast mounting procedure.
The relay base incorporates a single-

pole voltage-free changeover contact

for switching ancillary equipment. The

maximum contact rating is 30V 1A.
When the detector changes to the

alarm state, the relay is energised,

causing the contact to change state.

The contact will remain in this

condition until the detector is reset.
A base is available which allows Orbis

detectors to be used in ‘Sav-Wire’

detection and alarm systems. Care

should be taken to connect Sav-Wire

bases correctly as shown in fig 9.
The Orbis Heater base is designed

to be used in cold climates where

environmental conditions could

result in either icing or condensation

affecting the operation of detectors. It

is recommended that the heater base

be used in conjunction with either a

Waterproof Base Cover or Deckhead

Mounting Box to minimise moisture

ingress.

An adaptor can be used to enable

Orbis detectors to be fitted to Series

60/65 bases.
