3.2 RESIDENTIAL FIRE INDICATOR PANEL - ALARM 2000
3.2.1 General
The RFIP provides the controls, indicators, monitoring, power and stand-by supplies,
termination and distribution point for the system. The RFIP can be configured to specific
installation and system requirements by the selection of optional modules.
The basic RFIP comprises a Smoke / Heat Alarm module, power supply and standby
batteries. It was designed to interface with the Brooks EIB160e / EIB140RC Series mains
power Smoke/Heat Alarms and provides not only the control functions for the Smoke /
Heat Alarms, but also interface to other optional modules. However, the TL Series is
obsolete and is replaced with the EIB160e Series. When using this new Smoke Alarm
series, use only EIBPLATE and discard the standard mounting plate that is packaged with
EIB160e.
EIBPLATE is compatible with Brooks Alarm Isolator BAAISO and BAATLS, or when the
EIB160e Series is used with Alarm 2000 residential control panel.

Enclosure: Large enclosure 680H x 320W x 167D mm (with door)
3.2.3 Power Supply:
The primary and standby supplies are calculated to suit system alarm and standby
requirements. If the primary power supply fails, the secondary supply will provide sufficient
current to maintain the system fully operational for a period determined by the added
options to the system. Special consideration must be taken when the Gas Shutdown and
Manual Override modules are fitted. This is due to the higher quiescent current these
modules require.
3.2.3.1 Primary Power Supply:
The primary power supply is fully regulated 28V DC switch mode power supply featuring:

Universal AC input 85-264V AC, 47-63Hz

Output Voltage 28V DC adjustable

Output Current 2.2 Amp (standard); 5Amp and 10Amp optional.

Built-in EMI filter, low ripple noise.

Short circuit, over load and over voltage protection
Note: Power supply voltage output can be adjusted (if required) to the nominal
voltage using potentiometer SVR1 on the power supply PCB.
3.2.3.2 Standby Supply:
Battery capacity is calculated to suit systems requirements with sizes up to 15AH suitable
for the RFIP enclosure.
