Note that the Main panel, the printer box and the battery box stack together. Therefore, when these 3 parts
are used, the total dimensions of the assembly are (WxHxD) = 440x740x126 mm and a total weight of 19 kg
(including 2x17 Ah batteries). The accessory modules are not intended to be installed separate from the
main fire panel.
Installation in areas with high levels of electromagnetic interference should be avoided.
The height of the Draco panel’s LCD should be at the user’s eye level. This will provide for ideal readability
of the LCD screen.
Planning wire topology to meet EN 54-2 requirements on integrity of transmission paths.
EN 54 and installation guidelines require that the effects of a wiring fault do not affect more than 32 initiating
devices (detectors or MCPs). In order to meet these requirements, detection circuits with more than 32
devices shall be installed in a redundant loop (class A) wiring topology with the addition of compatible JBE
isolators installed at least every 32 initiating devices.
Installations with less devices (
≤
32) per detection circuit can be installed in non-redundant stubs (class B).
Note that each loop of the Draco fire panel can drive up to 2 stubs.
