FirePro disconnection of any of these will announce a fault condition. The FPC-2V2 requires a battery backed 24 V DC power supply capable of delivering a minimum of 1.6A for a short period to operate the Condensed Aerosol Generators. Terminals are provided for incoming and outgoing connection of the 24 V DC power supply.
Reset button on the front of the controller. Note: The controller will continue to show a fault condition until the Condensed Aerosol Generators are replaced. Man-1556 Rev.02 FPC-2V2 Fire Extinguishant Controller Operation and Installation Manual Page 4 of 18...
2. Installation The front panel of the FPC-2V2 should be removed by loosening the two M4 fixing screws holding it in place and should be put in a safe place along with the screws for refitting later. The back box can then be used to mark the fixing position holes in the required place.
3.1 Power terminals 24V IN/24V OUT These are the power supply terminals. The polarity of these terminals is very important. If connecting multiple FirePro. FPC-2 V2 units to a single power supply the 24V DC must be wired as shown in Figure 3 below.
Figure 4- Connection to linear heat detection cable Figure 5- Connection to smoke detectors 3.3 FirePro Condensed Aerosol Generators connection terminals These terminals (“FIREPRO GEN1” to “FIREPRO GEN4”) are for the connection of FirePro Condensed Aerosol Generators. Test lamps are provided in the terminals to allow testing of the system before connecting the Condensed Aerosol Generators.
There is no dedicated Siren circuit on this FPC-2V2 panel, however a siren can be connected to the fire relay output. The “FIRE” terminal on the FPC-2V2 panel is a relay that creates a closed circuit upon activation of the panel. This can be used to activate a siren or other device when wired as shown in Figure 7.
3.7 Connection to addressable modules It is possible to configure the FPC-2V2 panel such that it will trigger a VMMI1000 addressable module with fire and fault signals via FIRE and FAULT relay contacts. To make the FPC-2V2 panel compatible with an addressable input module, move jumpers J1 and J2 from their default positions (position A) to position B.
CONDENSED AEROSOL GENERATORS BEFORE TESTING. With all FirePro Condensed Aerosol generators disconnected from the FPC-2V2 panel, ensure that the test lamps that are supplied with the unit are fitted to terminals FirePro GEN1, FirePro GEN2, FirePro GEN3 and FirePro GEN4 IMPORTANT...
