Operation Guide

Bosch Sicherheitssysteme GmbH

2.

If this check reveals no malfunctions, check the airflow monitoring by connecting the test 

pipe and conducting the functional test in accordance with 

Section 6.7.2 Conducting the 

Functional Test, page 82

.

3.

If, during troubleshooting, the pipe network has been changed, the original configuration 

of the pipe network must be restored after the troubleshooting has been completed and 

the airflow must be recalibrated.

4.

Observe the current airflow value during ongoing maintenance or check it at the latest 

during the next inspection.

5.

If the target value is similar to the previous one, disruptive environmental influences are 

the cause of the deviation. If these negative influences on the airflow monitoring cannot 

be suppressed, increase the airflow range.

7.9

Testing the Fire Source Identification

Fire source identification is tested using the FAS-ASD-DIAG Diagnostic Software via the 

"ROOM·IDENT" screen.

1.

In the "ROOM·IDENT" screen, click the [Testing] button.

2.

First select the preselection time and then click on the [Start] button to determine the 

source of the fire.

3.

The FAS-420-TM-R/-RVB switches to the aspiration pipe blowing out. The appropriate 

smoke aspiration point must be charged with smoke until the selected preselection time 

has expired. Once the preselection time has expired, the smoke must be available at the 

aspiration point for another 10 to 15 seconds.

4.

Once the preselection time has expired, the FAS-420-TM-R/-RVB switches to aspiration 

and the aspiration point is determined by the measurement of the time until smoke is 

detected. Check that it is the correct aspiration point.

7.10

Airflow monitoring

A pipe breakage or pipe obstruction is indicated in the "Fault messages" screen of the 

diagnostic software.

Check airflow monitoring in accordance with 

Section 6.6 Checking Airflow Monitoring, page 80

.

7.11

Malfunction Transmission

A malfunction is indicated on the FAS-420-TM and on the fire panel, where applicable.

Proceed in accordance with 

Section 6.5 Checking Malfunction Transmission, page 80

.

7.12

Maintenance Intervals

Maintenance comprises regular inspections and maintenance routines. The smoke aspiration 

systems should be checked when commissioned and then quarterly. At each fourth check, 

more comprehensive checks should be made, as described below:

CAUTION! 

It is essential that you adhere to the calibration type (air-pressure-dependent or air-pressure-

independent) and, if necessary, the values for air pressure, height above sea level, and set 

voltage in the test log.

NOTICE! 

The diagnostic software can be used to save in file format all the stored and current data for 

the device, as well as any settings made.
