  • Page 6: Introduction

    NTRODUCTION The µ-FEP is designed to be a stand-alone fire detection-extinguishant release panel used in systems for e.g. electrical cabinets, CNC machines, engine rooms, small area’s or other equipment in which the user should be able to extinguish a fire rapidly and effective. This is done by pressing two buttons, external release button or using fire sensor inputs.
  • Page 7: Features

    EATURES 3.1 A COUSTIC ALARM The µ-FEP has an internal attention signal. Malfunctions are standard signalized with a continuous tone signal, alarms with a pulsating tone signal. Deviating tone signalling takes place with extinguishing activation and operation of the hold (extinguishing delay) function. The voltage of the monitored output to drive an additional sounder/beacon is controlled by the µ-FEP and is independent of the main power supply voltage.
  • Page 8: Enclosure & Installation

    & ENCLOSURE INSTALLATION µ-FEP control panel should be mounted on a dry, flat surface, at eye height to the signaling and operating panel, in a horizontal position so that the enclosure cannot deformed. The µ-FEP should be installed in an accessible area. Suitable fixings should be used at all µ-FEP fixing points such that the panel is securely mounted and is not liable to move once fixed.
  • Page 9: In- & Outputs

    - & OUTPUTS ONITORED INPUTS The µ-FEP is equipped with two detection zones and two external button inputs (Extinguishing Release & Hold). These inputs are continuously scanned for alarm or fault detection. All inputs are monitored and require a 10 kΩ end of line resistor, even if the input is not used. The button inputs must have a trigger resistor between 470 and 1000 Ω.
  • Page 10: Monitored Outputs

    ONITORED OUTPUTS The µ-FEP is equipped with six outputs, two monitored and four potential free. The monitored outputs are continuously scanned for open and short circuit fault conditions. The potential free outputs have a contact load of 30 VDC /1A. The monitored outputs are the extinguishing output (extinguishing release) for a maximum of 5 extinguishing units and the sounder output for a two-tone alarm signal generator.
  • Page 11: Control Buttons

    ONTROL BUTTONS The µ-FEP has a clear and orderly front panel with which the system status of the µ-FEP can be determined rapidly. The figure shows the controls and indications. The µ-FEP facia consists of a special foil with embedded the control buttons and LED indicators.
  • Page 12: Led Indicators

    7 LED INDICATORS The front of the µ-FEP has 2 common fire 3 internal fault, and 12 individual LED indicators on the front divided in three sections to indicate general functions, fire detection and the extinguishing status, with separate LED indicators. 7.1 G ENERAL FIRE ALARM Upon receipt of a fire condition on any of...

    7.8 E XTINGUISHING RELEASED The red extinguishing release indicator lights continuously when the extinguishers are activated. This red extinguishing release indicator lights up after ending of the configured extinguishing delay time, or when the two extinguishing release buttons on the front are pressed or the external release button is activated.

    When non-latching. It is possible that a short increase of humidity, dust or rise in temperature, nearby the detector occurs. This can result in a fire alarm that only disappears when the reset button on the panel is physically pressed. Normally somebody will go to the fire panel and press the reset button and with that restore the false alarm.

    -ETB µ CONNECTION DEVICE The µ-ETB is specially developed for the µ-FEP and aerosol extinguishers. This terminal connection board is equipped with built-in security electronics, which ensures that all igniters of the extinguishing units are activated. Together with an end line switch, this option turns the µ-FEP system into a complete and reliable fire detection and extinguishing system.
  • Page 24 Outdated or replaced computers and electronics are valuable sources for secondary raw materials, if recycled. Dealers of the µ-FEP system must comply with local regulations for waste separation applicable in the country where the supplier is located. Questions concerning the information presented in this manual may be addressed to your dealer.
