Calibrating the Airflow Sensor

The airflow initialization of the FCS-320-TM is successfully completed if the status of the
temperature and the airflow stabilizes for a period of 2 minutes, i.e.:
–
–
–
The maximum operating period is 2 hours.
The airflow initialization is aborted immediately if one of the following errors occurs:
–
–
–
The calibration of the airflow sensor can be carried out independently of the air pressure or
depending on it.
To be able to judge the airflow sensor value correctly during start-up work, always adhere to
the type of calibration in the test log.
7.3.1

Air-Pressure-Independent Calibration

Calibration of the FCS-320-TM independently of the air pressure takes place automatically
each time the detection module is inserted into the housing base and the X4 jumper is
replugged, or via the FAS‑ASD‑DIAG Diagnostic Software.
During the teach-in phase, the alarm detection is fully functional. The operating display flashes
during this time and the airflow must not be influenced in any way. On completion of
initialization, the operating display is permanently lit and the airflow sensor has determined a
target value for the connected pipe system.
7.3.2

Air-Pressure-Dependent Calibration

A barometer (measuring range from 0 up to 1300 mBar, resolution 1 mBar, accuracy 1mBar
+/-1 digit) and a multimeter are required to calibrate the airflow sensor dependent on air
pressure.
The following steps are required:

The temperature fluctuates by less than 0.1 °C
The airflow is not fluctuating too heavily (temperature control)
The fan voltage can be set normally; fan and fan power pack working normally
Temperature measurement faulty
Airflow measurement faulty
Fan control faulty
In the "Settings" screen, press the bottom button [Set], so that you can change the values
in the diagnostic software.
Determine the height above sea level of the installation location of the aspirating smoke
detector and enter this value into the relevant input field.
