ICAM by Xtralis ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide Introduction The 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 a sealed enclosure. The dual channel IAS-2 has provision for two separate point detectors, each monitoring a separate sampling pipe run.

ICAM by Xtralis ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide Detector Installation The ICAM IAS-2 is provided with the following components: 1 detector enclosure 1 corner stud key 1 blanking baffle 1 ferrite core 1 mounting template 1 product guide Approvals overlabels Check all components for damage and refer any concerns to your authorized representative.
ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide ICAM by Xtralis Mounting the Detector Enclosure Notes: This equipment must be installed by a qualified installer in accordance with all local and national code requirements. The detector assembly must be installed at an accessible position to facilitate maintenance and testing.
ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide ICAM by Xtralis Wiring The following wiring connections must be made to the detector housing: 24V DC Power Supply. Refer to Section 2.2.3 for further information. Loop or circuit wiring. Refer to Section 2.2.4 for further information. Fault Relay. Refer to Section 2.2.5 for further information.

ICAM by Xtralis ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide 2.2.3 24V DC Input The IAS-2 unit is designed to run from a 24 VDC supply. The supply should be connected to the two-way BATTERY connector on the main circuit board ensuring that the wires are correctly orientated. The minimum recommended wire size is 16 x 0.25 mm (18 AWG), or larger if the supply is further than 5 m from the system.
ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide ICAM by Xtralis Point Detectors If the installation is to be done in accordance with EN 54-20 requirements, then the detector must have been tested and approved for use in the system. Section 2.3.2 below contains the list of supported point detectors.

Please ensure that all wiring complies with manufacturer's instructions and local and national fire detection code requirements. Configuration with Conventional Detectors The terminating resistor is wired across both fault relays so a flow fault in either channel will produce a zone fault.

ICAM by Xtralis ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide Pipe Network Installation This chapter provides a simple guide to pipe installation and should contain all the information required for simple open area installations. Use appropriate CPVC/ABS pipe with sampling point holes drilled along its length. The pipe run is terminated with an end cap.
ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide ICAM by Xtralis End Cap Legend End Cap Sampling Hole Figure 3-1: End cap with hole drilled in center Refer to Section 3.9 on page 20 for approved configurations. Bends Bends are either 45° or 90°. For 90° bends, it is important that swept bends are used and not sharp elbows, as this will introduce unnecessary pressure losses, and increase the response times from holes beyond the bend.
The sampled air is passed through a filter (order code FL53) before entering the detector chamber. Figure 3-5: Xtralis Inline Filter Additional filtration of sampled air may be required in harsh environments. Refer to the Xtralis Inline Filter Application Note (17785) for further information.
ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide ICAM by Xtralis Open Area Applications Figure 3-6: Example of IAS-2 system with two pipes For this standard configuration, the pipes should be balanced, i.e. be of equal length and have equal size and number of holes. The use of additional bends as described in Section 3.5 will have a minimal effect on performance (response time).
ICAM by Xtralis ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide Configuration Display Functions Each channel has the following functional LEDs. BARGRAPH of AIRFLOW SPEED 2, 3, AIRFLOW OK, HIGH AIRFLOW, LOW AIRFLOW The following LEDs are common to both channels. POWER ON GENERAL FAULT (Mains PSU Option Only)
ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide ICAM by Xtralis User Interface Press and hold SELECT and CHANGE keys simultaneously for 1 sec to initialize function selection. Press and release SELECT key to sequentially step through functions. Press and release CHANGE key to modify setting.
ICAM by Xtralis ICAM IAS-2 Product Guide Parameters The Fan Speed, Flow Limits and Flow Sensitivity need to be set for each installation prior to Flow Calibration and testing. It is not possible to provide the settings for all possible installations but the following guidelines should assist in the commissioning of the unit.
