1 Introduction
The Xtralis ICAM IAS-2 system is an aspirating smoke detection system that utilizes an air-sampling pipe
network to draw air towards conventional or analog addressable point detectors in an aspirated enclosure.
Point detectors can be selected according to specific needs of an installation and are listed in Section 9: AS
1603.8 Listed Detectors .
The single channel IAS-2 system has provision for one or two point detectors allowing for single, failsafe
redundancy or mixed detection strategies.
The dual channel IAS-2 has provision for two separate point detectors, each monitoring a separate sampling
pipe run.
Point detectors are wired directly into the signaling circuit connected to the monitoring fire alarm control panel.
Any alarms or faults derived from the analog or conventional point detector will be reported directly to
monitoring fire panel through the signaling circuit for that detector.
The IAS-2 system provides airflow monitoring circuitry and an aspiration system that is configurable. The
airflow level is displayed on a ten element bar graph with adjustments for flow sensitivity and high/low flow
thresholds. Flow failure is reported to the central panel via isolated volt-free contacts and are indicated on the
display interface LEDs.
Note: The IAS-2 system has been independently tested and certified to AS 1603.8 under the ActivFire
scheme and must be installed in strict compliance with these instructions if the certification is to be
maintained.
