  • Page 6: Safety And Mounting

    2. Safety and mounting 2.1 Safety Suppliers of articles for use at work are required under section 6 of the Health and Safety at Work act 1974 to ensure as reasonably as is practical that the article will be safe and without risk to health when properly used. An article is not regarded as properly used if it is used ‘without regard to any relevant information or advice’...

  • Page 7: Mounting

    2.2 Mounting The control panel should be mounted on a dry, flat surface, at eye height to the displays and in a level position such that the enclosure is not distorted. Screws or bolts of a minimum of 5mm diameter must be used to mount the enclosure in all four mounting positions. It should be positioned in an accessible place as agreed with the end user.

  • Page 12: Control Panel Fascias

    4. Control panel fascias This drawing shows the fascias of the models available in the Sigma XT+ range. K21021M3 K21041M3 K21042M3 K21081M3 K21082M3 K21083M4 K21084M4 The fascias are divided into sections for the detection panel and extinguishant modules. A standard EN54-2 control and indicating equipment section with up to eight zones is located in the top aperture of the panel fascia and EN12094-1 extinguishant modules are fitted in the lower apertures.

  • Page 13: Removing The Fire Detection Equipment Chassis

    4.1 Removing the fire detection equipment chassis Open the control panel lid using the two 801 lock keys. Before the chassis can be removed it will be necessary to disconnect the power connector terminal block on the left hand side of the PCB. This is fitted on pins and can be pulled towards you to remove it. Do not remove the wires from the terminals.

  • Page 14: Connecting To The Circuit Boards

    5. Connecting to the circuit boards All connections for field wiring are to rows of terminals along the top and bottom of the circuit boards. Shielded fire alarm cable such as FP200 and metal cable glands must be used for all connections to the panel. The shield of the cable must be bonded securely to the enclosure earth via a metal cable gland.

  • Page 17: Detection Zone Wiring

    6. Detection zone wiring The detection zones provide a nominal 20V DC to power conventional detectors and call points as listed in the compatibility tables 2 and 3. The wiring is monitored for open and short circuit fault conditions by removing the 6K8 0.5W end of line monitoring resistors that are supplied fitted to the control panels’...

  • Page 18: Using Intrinsically Safe Barriers

    8. Using intrinsically safe barriers SIGMA XT+ control panels support the use of I.S. barriers for connecting to equipment in hazardous areas. Only certified detectors, call points and sounders may be used in hazardous areas and these must be connected to the control panel via a compatible I.S. barrier as listed in table 5. Connection of the I.S.

  • Page 19: Connection To Monitored Inputs

    9. Connection to monitored inputs Monitored inputs (Mode select, manual release, Hold, Abort, Released pressure switch and Low pressure switch) have the same characteristics as detection zone inputs and require a 6K8 0.5W end of line monitoring resistor and a nominal, 470 ohm 1 W trigger resistor. Example of wiring to a monitored input 10.

  • Page 20: Igniting Actuator Wiring

    10.2 Igniting actuator wiring A maximum of four igniting actuators can be wired in series. If only one or two actuators are fitted, a 2R2, 2.5 Watt resistor must be wired in series with them to provide the correct monitoring resistance. The end of line diode can be discarded when igniting actuators are used.

  • Page 21: Connection To Remote Control Terminals

    11. Connection to remote control terminals Some functions of the control panel can be controlled externally from the panel if required. The external equipment operating inputs must be restricted by an access level 2 control as defined in EN54-2 The functions are abbreviated at the terminals block on the detection zone PCB in the top part of the control panel as follows: Remote 0 V supply –...

  • Page 22: Connection To Relay Contacts

    13. Connection to relay contacts Volt free changeover relay contacts are provided for local control and signalling if required. These contacts are rated for switching signalling circuits only and the maximum ratings listed in table 1 should not be exceeded under any circumstances.

  • Page 23: Connection And Configuration Of Status Units And Ancillary Boards

    14. Connection and configuration of status units and ancillary boards The control panel should not be powered during the connection of status units or ancillary boards. Status units and ancillary boards require a four-wire connection from the associated extinguishing module, which drops into each unit and connects to the corresponding data and power, in and out terminals.

  • Page 24: Adding New Status Units/Ancillary Boards

    14.1 Adding new status units/ancillary boards When the system is powered up, it will search for connected status units and/or ancillary boards connected to extinguishant modules. If status units or ancillary boards are fitted and detected by the control panel, the LCD will display: ►...

    15.2.3 Configuring the activation mode It is possible to configure the extinguishing modules to be activated by coincidence (any 2 zones in a range of zones) or a single zone in a range of zones. The activation mode is factory set to coincidence. To change this, switch on the enable controls keyswitch and slide the write enable switch on the module to be configured gently to the left.

  • Page 31: Reset Inhibit Time

    15.2.6 Reset inhibit time It is a requirement of the extinguishing control panel standard EN12094-1 to inhibit reset of the system after it has been activated until there is a signal representing the end of the discharge (a released input) or for an adjustable time period of up to 30 minutes.

With the release timer disabled, the extinguishant outputs will remain operated until the system is reset. 15.2.14 R0V not removed on reset It is possible to configure the AUX24V output on the Sigma XT+ module to be removed for a few seconds when the system is reset.

  • Page 34: Invert Low Pressure Switch Input

    15.2.17 Invert low pressure switch input To enable low pressure switches to be used which have normally closed rather than normally open contacts, it is possible to invert the low pressure switch input. The factory default setting is for the low pressure switch input to use a normally open contact. To invert the low pressure switch input, switch on the enable controls keyswitch and slide the write enable switch on the module to be configured gently to the left.

    17. Internal Controls 17.1 Detection part 17.1.1 Watchdog reset If for any reason the microprocessor in the detection part of the control panel fails to carry out its operation correctly it will attempt to restart. This process is called a “watchdog” and the control panel must record and indicate these events.

  • Page 41: Address Switch

    17.2.5 Address switch Extinguishant modules are connected to the serial bus of the Sigma CP detection part of the control panel and each module must be allocated an address between 1 and 7 using the binary coded DIP switch.

    18.1.6 Comms fault Indicates that communication has been lost with an Extinguishant module, Repeater panel or Ancillary board. Check for comms fault at all Extinguishant modules, Repeaters and Ancillary boards to identify the source of the problem. 18.1.7 Earth fault Indicates that part of the system wiring is connected to earth.

  • Page 43: Power Supply

    19. Power supply The control panel requires a 230V (+10%/-15%), 50/60Hz, AC mains power supply which connects to the fused terminal block labelled “230V”. Panels with a 3A power supply have a 20mm, F1.6A L250V mains fuse. Panels with a 4A power supply have a 20mm T2A L250V mains fuse. These fuses should only be replaced with fuses of the same or similar types.

  • Page 47: Commissioning Instructions

    24. Commissioning instructions 24.1 Before applying power to the panel, any solenoids or igniting actuators must be physically isolated from the system by disconnecting both wires to it. This will prevent any accidental release of extinguishant. 24.2 When power is applied, if all connections are correct, only the green Power On indicators should be lit. If any fault indicators are lit the wiring to the appropriate input or output should be checked an all faults cleared before proceeding.
