  • Page 9: System Overview

    System overview The ZP3 is a complete intelligent fire detection system designed to protect life and property. Each system is an individual design, based upon modular ZP components. The ZP3 detects the presence of smoke or fire, raises alarms, and accurately indicates the location of the fire.

  • Page 10: Basic System Features

    Basic system features The ZP3 system incorporates a wide range of features and capabilities, including these: • The ZP3 incorporates the proven ZP system of automatic contamination adjustment for each sensor. This recalibrates each sensor as it becomes contaminated, and provides a constant sensitivity even when sensors are dirty.

  • Page 11: Operation

    Operation The panel incorporates a simple and effective operator interface that includes a 160-character LCD display. Together with zone LEDs and function LEDs, these indications give a clear and unambiguous indication of all alarms and reports. All control functions are menu driven, and three access levels are protected by passwords.
  • Page 12 Type 54 emulation Type 54 emulated devices improve functionality: A type 54 emulated device can be mapped to disable any other line device. This is reported on the panel as an event and updated in the Event archive. The ZP3 panel, when fitted with the software shown in the specification supports the following sensors and devices.

    Number Description ZP786ex Intrinsically-safe call point ZP740ex Intrinsically-safe interface unit ZP35-ECU Extinguishing control units ZS200 High sensitivity aspirating smoke detectors ZX832 Multisensor fire detector (optional) * Used with the ZP471A and ZP472A Radio interface units only (see “Total Loss of Power alarm” on page 6).

  • Page 14: Total Loss Of Power Alarm

    Total Loss of Power alarm The ZP3 panel is fitted with a Total Loss of Power alarm feature. This feature is a prewired, independent circuit that turns on the Common Fault and System Fault LEDs and sounds a buzzer in the event of total loss of power. This condition occurs when the mains power has been lost and the battery has been depleted to the extent that load shedding has occurred, prior to the entire panel being shut down.

  • Page 15: Day/Night Capability

    Day/night capability Day/night control provides separate programmes for day and night modes. Different sensor sensitivity, alarm selection, alarm evaluation delays, and fire brigade responses can be configured. Configuration A programming or configuration utility allows any “cause-and-effect” requirement to be configured. Each panel can have up to 896 physical outputs that are software linked to as many as 2,000 inputs in any arrangement.

  • Page 16: Principle Of Operation

    Principle of operation Sensing devices, e.g. heat and smoke detectors, manual call points, etc. are grouped into zones, and programmed with text labels to indicate their location. The control panel continually checks each fire or smoke sensor, call point, or other device attached to the ZP-loop, every 2 seconds.

  • Page 17: Zp3 Fire Control Panel

    ZP3 Fire control panel In addition to operating all the sensors, sounders, and other devices in the system, the control panel provides the interface for the operator by means of its front panel fascia. Figure 2 below shows a typical ZP3 Fire Control Panel. Figure 2: ZP3 Fire control panel ZP3 Fire Panel User Guide...

  • Page 18: Panel Fascia

    Panel fascia The ZP3 system is operated by means of the controls and indicators on the ZP3 panel Fascia as shown in Figure 3 below. In some systems, the operator controls the system from a Remote Display Unit and not from the panel fascia. This is identical to the control panel, but is usually located in some other area, such as a control room.
  • Page 19 Where more than one type of alarm is present simultaneously, then the highest priority alarm displays automatically. The priority order is: 1. Fire 2. Fault 3. Disabled 4. Other To view other categories of alarm, press the relevant button as described below. After viewing lower-priority alarms using the alarm view buttons, the system times out and automatically returns to the current highest priority alarm.
  • Page 20 Fire indicator The Fire indicator illuminates when any fire alarm is received by, or is currently present, in the system. The indicator flashes for a new alarm, and becomes steady after an alarm has been accepted. New alarms must be responded to immediately.

  • Page 25: Display Of Alarms

    Display of alarms Overview See Figure 9 below. Alarms are indicated both audibly and visibly on the fascia of the panel (or remote display panel). Audible indication is by means of a built-in panel buzzer. Visible indication is by means of illuminated LED indicators and descriptive text on the LCD display.

  • Page 26: Disabled Alarms

    Disabled alarms Events such as zones, sensors, or sounders being disabled are shown by means of the common Disabled LED and the LCD display. The LCD display can be cleared with the Reset button, but as long as the devices remain disabled, the common Disabled indicator remains lit.

  • Page 27: Lcd Display

    LCD display Overview ZP3 panels use a carefully structured reporting system for alarms, faults, and other events. Information is displayed on a 160-character LCD display as shown in Figure 10 below. The display has two alarm screens; the zone screen, which shows alarms by zone, and the point screen, which shows alarms by device.

  • Page 40: Operator Maintenance

    Operator maintenance Overview The owner of a fire detection system is responsible for ensuring that it is correctly maintained so that it is in proper working condition at all times. This involves arranging for the system to be checked, tested, and serviced as described in this manual.
  • Page 41 Making sure that a clear space of at least 500 mm is preserved around and below all fire detectors. Making sure that all manual call points remain unobstructed and conspicuous. Making sure to communicate with those responsible for changes to, or maintenance of, the building to ensure that changes do not compromise the effectiveness of the system.

  • Page 42: Routine Maintenance

    Record keeping The operator should maintain a logbook (see document 503-1842ZE-0-02) at the control panel. A record of all alarms, events, checks, tests, and repairs should be entered in this logbook. Routine maintenance Note: Occupants of the building and anyone receiving remote alarm signals, such as the fire department, must be informed before starting with the test or routine maintenance.
  • Page 43 Caution: Before testing the operator must be aware both of the operation of all devices fitted to any auxiliary circuits and the consequences of their operation. For example a connection to call the fire brigade. Do the following checks every week: 1.
