PREMIER AD INSTALLATION MANUAL.

1.INTRODUCTION

THIS FIRE ALARM CONTROL PANEL IS CLASS 1 EQUIPMENT AND MUST BE
EARTHED
This equipment must be installed and maintained by a qualified and technically experienced person.

1.1 HANDLING THE PCBS

If the PCBs are to be removed to ease fitting the enclosure and cables, care must be taken to
avoid damage by static.
The best method is to wear an earth strap, but touching any earth point (eg building plumbing) will help to
discharge any static. Hold PCBs by their sides, avoiding contact with any components.
Always handle PCBs by their sides and avoid touching the legs of any components. Keep the PCBs away from
damp dirty areas, e.g. in a small cardboard box.

1.2 USING THIS MANUAL

This manual explains, in a step-by-step manner, the procedure for the installation of the Premier AD Range of
Fire Alarm Control Panels. For full operational and maintenance information, please refer to document
GLT.MAN-106 (USER MANUAL, MAINTENANCE GUIDE & LOG BOOK). It also contains a System set-up
table, and Installation Certificate, that must be completed by the Commissioning Engineer prior to system
handover.
Unlike the User Manual, this Installation Manual must not be left accessible to the User.
1.3 ABOUT THE PREMIER AD FIRE ALARM PANEL & INTEGRAL PSE
• The PREMIER AD Fire alarm control panel is a
two loop analogue addressable Fire Alarm
Control Panel, with the loops split into 16 Zones.
• It has 4 sounder output circuits each capable of
supplying 250mA.
• It has a set of fire relay contacts (voltage free) rated
at 1A SELV.
• It has a set of fault relay contacts (voltage free)
rated at 1A SELV. This relay is normally
powered to allow a fault output in the case of
total power failure.
• It has a class change connection to allow remote
activation of the sounders. (not required by
EN54-2)
• It has an RS485 repeater connection.
• It has the ability to disable any address, any zone
or any of the sounder circuits.
• It has a one man test mode, which resets the zone
in test after 8 seconds.(EN54 option with
requirements).

1.4 DESIGNING THE SYSTEM

This manual is not designed to teach Fire Alarm System design. It is assumed that the System has
been designed by a competent person, and that the installer has an understanding of Fire Alarm
System components and their use.
We strongly recommend consultation with a suitably qualified, competent person regarding the
design of the Fire Alarm System. The System must be commissioned and serviced in accordance
with our instructions and the relevant National Standards. Contact the Fire Officer concerned with
the property at an early stage in case he has any special requirements.
If in doubt, read BS 5839: Pt 1: 2002 "Fire Detection and Alarm Systems for buildings (Code of
Practice for System Design, Installation, commissioning and maintenance)" available from the BSI, or
at your local reference library.
