3.16.1 24-0* Fire Mode
CAUTION
Note that the frequency converter is only one
component of the system. Correct function of Fire Mode
depends on the correct design and selection of system
components. Ventilation systems working in life safety
applications have to be approved by the local fire
Authorities. Non-interruption of the frequency converter
due to Fire-Mode operation could cause over pressure
and result in damage to the system and components,
hereunder dampers and air ducts. The frequency
converter itself could be damaged and it may cause
damage or fire. Failure to follow recommendations could
result in death or serious injury. Trane accepts no
responsibility for errors, malfunctions personal injury or
any damage to the frequency converter itself or
components herein, systems and components herein or
other property when the frequency converter has been
programmed for Fire Mode. In no event shall Trane be
liable to the end user or any other party for any direct or
indirect, special or consequential damage or loss
suffered by such party, which has occurred due to the
frequency converter being programmed and operated in
Fire Mode.
Background
Fire Mode is for use in critical situations, where it is
imperative for the motor to keep running, regardless of
the frequency converter's normal protective functions.
These could be ventilation fans in tunnels or stairwells for
instance, where continued operation of the fan facilitates
safe evacuation of personnel in the event of a fire. Some
selections of Fire Mode Function cause alarms and trip
conditions to be disregarded, enabling the motor to run
without interruption.
Activation
Fire Mode is activated only via Digital Input terminals. See
parameter group 5-1* Digital Inputs.
Messages in display
When Fire Mode is activated, the display shows a status
message "Fire Mode".
Once the Fire Mode is again deactivated, the status
message disappears.
If, while the frequency converter is active in Fire Mode, a
warranty-affecting alarm (see 24-09 FM Alarm Handling)
occurs, the display shows the status message "Fire Mode
Limits Exceeded". Once this status message appears, it
remains permanently, and cannot be removed.
Digital and relay outputs can be configured for the status
messages "Fire Mode Active". See parameter group 5-3*
Digital Outputs and parameter group 5-4* Relays.
TR150 Programming Guide
The status messages "Fire Mode" and "Fire Mode Limits
Exceeded" can be accessed via the extended status word.
