Model IFP-2000/ECS Installation Manual
Section 4
Control Panel Installation
To avoid the risk of electrical shock and damage to the unit, power should be OFF to the control panel while installing or servicing.
4.1
Mounting the Control Panel Cabinet
Read the environmental specifications in Section 3.2 before mounting the control panel cabinet. This will ensure
that you select a suitable location.
The panel should be accessible to main drop wiring runs. It should be mounted as close to the center of the
building as possible and located within a secured area, but should be accessible for testing and servicing.
Mount the control panel cabinet so it is firmly secured to the wall surface. When mounting on concrete,
especially when moisture is expected, attach a piece of 3/4 inch plywood to the concrete surface and then attach
the cabinet to the plywood. Also mount any other modules to the plywood.
The IFP-2000 cabinet can be surface or flush mounted. Cabinet dimensions are 26.4"H x 16" W x 4.65"D. If you
flush mount the cabinet, the hole for the enclosure should be 15" W x 25" H. There should be 1.5" to 1.75" of
cabinet extruding from the wall, this should be measured from either the top edge or bottom edge to the exterior
side of the sheet rock. Do NOT flush mount in a wall designated as a fire break.
The IFP-2000ECS cabinet can be surface or flush mounted. Cabinet dimensions are 27"H x 20.362"W x 5.054"D
If you flush mount the cabinet, the hole for the enclosure should be 20¼" W x 26½" H. There should be 1.5" to
1.75" of cabinet extruding from the wall, this should be measured from either the top edge or bottom edge to the
exterior side of the sheet rock. Do NOT flush mount in a wall designated as a fire break.
4.1.1
Preventing Water Damage
Water damage to the fire system can be caused by moisture entering the cabinet through the conduits. Conduits
that are installed to enter the top of the cabinet are most likely to cause water problems. Installers should take
reasonable precautions to prevent water from entering the cabinet. Water damage is not covered under warranty.
4.1.2
Removing the IFP-2000 Assembly from the Housing
Should it ever be necessary to remove the control panel assembly from the cabinet for repair, do so by
unscrewing the nuts that connect the control panel assembly to the cabinet. Do not attempt to disassemble the
circuit boards. See Section 3.5 for location of the nuts.
4.1.3
Ethernet Connection
Ethernet connection is not used at this time. For port location see Figure 3-2.
