MAGDUO Manual Call Point
26-1659-01
General Description
The MAGDUO Manual Call Point (MCP) allows for user activation of the fire alarm
system. Once operated the device latches into the alarm position and requires
manually resetting via a special key.
This device is compatible with the range of MAGDUO Fire Alarm Control Panels and
comprises a 2-wire zone-powered Manual Call Point (MCP). This device may be
installed on the same zone as the MAGDUO FlexiPoint detector/sounder and other
associated MAGDUO devices
.
An optional clear front cover is available if required.
Before Installation
The MCP must be installed in compliance with the control panel installation manual. The installation must also
meet the requirements of any local authority. For maximum performance the MCP should be installed in
compliance with BS5839 Pt1 : 2017.
Spacing
It is recommended spacing of call points in accordance with BS5839 Pt1. For more specific information regarding
MCP spacing, placement and special applications please refer to BS5839 Pt1 : 2017.
Device Installation
All wiring must be installed in compliance with the recommendations laid out by BS5839 Pt1 : 2017 as well as any
special recommendations documented in the control panel installation manual. The cabling used should be of a 2-
core 1.5mm
2
screened, fire resistant type (e.g. MICC or FP200 equivalent), and is to be wired in the form of a
screened 2-
core radial circuit (with no spurs) from the control panel, terminating at the last (“End of Line”) device.
Site cables may be terminated into the connectors, as shown overleaf. Care should be taken when terminating
devices to ensure all cables are correctly sleeved and connections are secure. Improper connections will prevent a
system from responding properly in the event of a fire.
The MCP may be flush mounted utilising the optional adaptor plate, combined with any standard single gang flush
mounting back box (with a minimum internal depth of 47mm). Terminate your site cables directly into a flying
terminal block. If using a metal back box,
do not
connect the screen to the back box earth terminal or allow it to
come into contact with the metal box.
Please remember that all high voltage testing must be carried out before connection of the MCP front unit
otherwise damage may be caused.
Once
all testing has been carried out on the cabling and ‘continuity & integrity’ has been proven,
the MCP front may be fitted.
If surface mounting, connect the MCP wires into the appropriate terminals on the back box according to the wire
colours.
