Technology
4.2 Product Description
The AT-S
+
automatic test system is a symbiosis of STAR and CEWA GUARD technology, and now also enables
the monitoring and specification of switching mode of the connected emergency lighting in networks using an
aggregate, dual network or central converter with 50 or 60 Hz AC voltage as supply voltage as power sources for
safety services.
The main benefits of this technology include the fact that
within a final circuit, the switching modes
- Non-maintained light (Emergency lighting is switched on when the main lighting fails or when a function test
is initiated manually or automatically)
- Maintained light and (Emergency lighting is always on)
- Switched maintained light (as non-maintained light with emergency lighting controlled by switch queries,
e. g. from external DLS-modules)
can be implemented in hybrid mode for each emergency luminaire.
each safety and EXIT luminaire can be programmed without an extra data cable ,
the switching modes can be later modified without the need to interfere in the existing luminaire installation.
The functions of the emergency luminaires are defined with a user-friendly parameter setup system.
The use of V-CG-S type ballasts/modules is a requirement.
All settings are stored in a nonvolatile memory and so are not lost even in a total shutdown situation (230V mains
supply).
Parameter settings and the names of circuits, luminaires and DLS/TLS-modules as well as test log entries can
also be stored on a memory card. As well as archiving, this also allows (optional) external parameter setting and
transfer to control modules of the AT-S
+
system.
Aggregates, dual networks and central converters supply the energy for operation of the emergency lighting upon
failing of the power supply via the general 230V mains grid. During normal operation, the AT-S
+
system monitors
the functionality of the connected emergency lighting.
The system AT-S
+
is designed and manufactured in compliance with the following EC directives:
Low-voltage Directive 2006/95/EG
Directive 2004/108/EG on electromagnetic compatibility
National (DIN-), European (EN-) and international (IEC-) standards which the system complies will be found in
the system´s CE Certificate of Conformity.
