Chapter 1: Introduction
This manual is intended as a complete guide to the RE 150D model
Conventional Fire Control Panel. User operating Instructions are
provided in the first part of this manual. This is followed with sections
describing installation and commissioning procedures and full
technical details are provided.
1.1 System Design and Planning
It is assumed that the system, of which this control panel is a part,
has been designed by a competent fire alarm system designer in
accordance with the requirements of IS 2189: 1999 and any other
local codes of practice that are applicable. The design drawings
should clearly show the positions of the field devices and the control
equipment.
1.2 General
The panel is self-contained with integral power supply and space
provision for two sealed lead-acid standby batteries and comply with
the requirements of IS 2189: 1999. The panel functions are
microprocessor controlled and test and isolate functions are included.
Provision is made for a repeater function of panel status output. The
panel can accept, per zone, automatic detectors with a total
maximum loading of 2.4mA quiescent current rating (refer to chapter
2.2), and an unlimited number of manual call points.
End of Line (EOL) devices
The panels can continue to monitor manual call points with
detectors removed, providing the detectors are fitted with a Schottky
diode and an a EOL device is used.
Installation
The panel is easy to install and operate. The panel fascia is retained by
tamper-proof screws.
