LDM-519-DIM LHDC MONITOR Digital Line Heat Detector Interface

Transcription

1 LDM59DIM LHDC MONITOR The module is designed to monitor a length of Digital Linear Heat Detecting Cable (LHDC) for both Fire condition, and Fault status (open circuit). Digital LHDC may be employed in lengths up to 5Km. Signalling of fire and fault status by means of volt free contacts. The units has open collector type solid state outputs for local indicators. The DIN rail modular form of the unit enables it to both be provided in a variety of discrete housings and readily integrated into multi zone control panels. The primary features of the control units are: LHDC Hazardous rea use by means of Intrinsically Safe Zener arrier. Fault monitoring of LHDC for open circuit conditions. LED indication of Fire, Fault & Supply status. Integral Test & pushbuttons. Volt free contact outputs for Fire & Fault conditions. Indicator and control switch connections for local fascia implementation DIN Rail mounting. LDM59DIM Data Sheet D55 Issue 6 May 0 Page of 5

2 LDM59DIM LHDC MONITOR Principles The unit is operated in conjunction with a length of Digital Line Heat Detector Cable (LHDC) and an end of line () terminator. The LHDC is a twisted pair twin core cable. When the trigger temperature of the LHDC is reached these cores connect and a Fire larm is registered. The LDM59DIM module monitors the LHDC. Reference should be made to the (separate) data sheet on the Line Heat Detectors for specification of their performance. There are three principle modes of supply & signalling operation : Figure shows a typical system where the LHDC is connected via a junction box & interposing cable. The repeat contacts may be employed to signal an alarm panel and/or initiate control systems.

4 LDM59DIM LHDC MONITOR Hazardous reas IS arriers The LHDC may be installed in a Hazardous rea by employing an Intrinsically Safe Zener arrier which ensures that even under fault conditions the LHDC circuit has insufficient electrical energy to produce a spark initiated explosion. oth arrier and LDM59DIM module must be located in a Safe rea or Explosion Proof enclosure. Each arrier type specifies maximum parameters for cable located in the Hazardous rea. These parameters are: Capacitance (C), Inductance (L) & Inductance to Resistance Ratio (L/R). The whole of the hazardous area circuit, both LHDC and interposing cable, must comply in all three aspects. For use with the LDM59DIM Patol recommends a Dual Channel Shunt Diode C arrier, 5V 50m R per channel. MTL 7765 by Measurement Technologies Ltd. is of this type. The CLL/R parameters for the barrier depend on the configuration and gas group. When considered together with the LHDC & interposing cable specification they will determine the compliance of an installation and/or define maximum cable lengths. COMINED CHNNEL CONFIGURTION Whilst the supply 0V must be maintained within V of earth, by employing both channels of the barrier (Figures 7 & 8) the circuit is isolated from earth at the IS arrier, thus obviating multiple earth points on Fire Panel signalling systems such as addressable loops.
