INSTALLATION NOTE
PS2 SOUNDER
Overview
The PS2 Sounder is one of a range of sounders manufactured by Pertronic Industries. The PS2
generates the evacuation and alert tones as specified by AS2220. The PS2 can also be used to
generate an alert signal acceptable to NZS4512:1997 (Amendment Two) by giving an
evacuation tone sweep every 15 seconds.
The PS2 has a maximum sound pressure level of 98dBA with a sound distribution pattern shown
below. The sound level may be adjusted by the volume control.
The PS2 is normally connected to the monitored bell or sounder circuit of a fire alarm panel and
to the LED drive output of a conventional or analogue addressable detector. The PS2 will sound
the evacuation tone when the detector is in alarm. If the bell circuit is reversed when the detector
is normal, the evacuation tone or alert tone will be sounded—depending on the state of the
terminal or jumper J3 of the PS2.
ALERT IN
The PS2 may also be powered from the analogue addressable loop. In this case, the PS2 will
sound the evacuation tone when the detector is in alarm.
The PS2 may be mounted in a standard single-gang electrical flush-box fitting and is supplied
with a protective plastic cover for installation and building construction use.
