6
• JP7 ON - Alarm relay normally powered (in case of alarm the relay gets not powered).
In this case the indication of the JP2 is inverted
• JP7 OFF - Alarm relay normally not powered (in case of alarm the relay gets powered). In this case the indication of JP2
is according to figures 12-13-14 (diagrams of the terminal block and the classical scheme of connection to a control
system to terminated lines)
6 - OPERATION
6.1
- the RK100-B detector is equipped with 2 circuits for detection of the smoke produced by a fire, but the -S versions
only have the obscuration circuit.
•
Obscuration
- circuit sensitive to Obscuration. This circuit bases its operation on the attenuation of the infrared beam
intensity, along the optical path between the transmitter and the receiver, caused by smoke presence.
•
Turbulence (not present in -S version)
- circuit sensitive to Turbulence. During the beginning phase of a fire, generally
there are some clouds of smoke and warm air that rise up to the ceiling. When these clouds and warm air intercept the
infrared beam produced by the detector, they cause a perturbation of it, because they generate changes of optical and
physics characteristics in the transmission mean of the infrared beam. This variations are obviously time related.
An suitable circuit has been designed to detect these variations and, when these reach the programmed amplitude and the
duration in time, an alarm signals generated.
The sensitivity of this circuit is independently adjustable to fully satisfy the specific application needs.
The advantage offered by this circuit is a great speed of fire detection, because it is detected in dynamic way in its initial
phase.
7 - OPTICAL ALIGNMENT WITH THE LASER POINTER BLP-100
7.1
- General
7.1.1
- The pointer is installed on board of the RK100-B detector in order to speed the optical alignment operation
between the transmitter TX and the receiver RX
7.1.2
- The BLP Laser pointer is an accessory that makes the installation faster EDS detectors. It allows a fast primary
alignment. But it is always useful to make the electrical alignment (fine adjustment).
7.1.3
-
Attention !
- When the Laser it’s switched ON it must not be pointed directly to human eyes and nobody should
watch the optics along the optical axis of the beam.
7.1.4
- Be careful when performing the operations below, avoiding to damage the Laser pcb pressing or shocking it, so
that it remains alligned with the optics.The pointer is factory aligned with the optics on the testing optical bench.
7.1.5
- In case of long path distance between the 2 elements it’s suggested to perform alignment operations in a reduced
light condition environment
7.2
- Fix the transmitter TX firmly on the wall and the receiver RX on the opposite wall
7.3
- Power the transmitter TX detector
7.4
- Turn ON the Laser pointer using the switch
