Description of controller
The FirePro is a controller for vertically-operating fire and/or smoke-proof doors (for example,
shutter sectional doors and fire hatches) that feature a FailSafe drive unit (FS series) by GfA-
Elektromaten.
This controller is part of an electrically-powered fireproof door, and uses its own energy - in this case,
based on gravity - to close the door in the event of a fire.
The FirePro includes a cabinet containing a control circuit board in combination with power/charger
and 2 batteries (12V-5Ah).
Characteristics of this controller:
-
Hold to run or automatic operation
-
Operation via panel on cabinet lid or external controls
-
Status display via 4 LEDs on cabinet lid
-
Buzzer with mute function
-
Fire alarm input
-
Smoke and heat alarm input
-
Input for safety edge
-
Input for security contacts (safety brake, pass door/slack cable contact)
-
Input for sensor operation
-
Input for escape button
-
2 potential-free programmable switch contacts
-
Output for signal transmitter
In case of fire alarm, loss of power or empty batteries, the door will lower because power to the
electric brake is cut (if this has been selected in the menu). If mains power is still present, the door
will lower until the ‘close’ end switch or the “over close” end switch has been reached. Once the fire
alarm returns to normal, the door will be released immediately (par.5.3), after a certain period of
time (par.3.4) or can be reset (par.4.6).
