1. INTRODUCTION _________________________________________________ This operation and maintenance manual (OMM) provides information on applications, design, operation, installation and maintenance of mcr EXi-F smoke control system for escape routes. This manual also includes additional information on operating conditions, maintenance and warranty terms and conditions.
EXi-F system can be used in staircases with protected lobbies and is compatible with systems including at least one pressure transmitter per protected area. mcr EXi-F system consists of a configured set of devices preventing smoke ingress to the protected area by increasing pressure. Constant...
The system is managed by mcr Omega control unit (CU) including all the required components (e.g. mcr ICR positive pressure regulator). Positive-pressure mcr EXi-F system is activated automatically via SAP signal or manually via CU or the manual control panel. After detecting the fire in the building, the air dampers of the air supply units are activated, and the air supply unit is activated with a delay (necessary to open the shut-off dampers).
