Fireclass DiMM 516.016.027 Digital Interface 2-Zone Monitor Module

 

Fireclass 516.016.027FC Digital Interface 2-Zone Monitor Module

 

A Unique and Flexible dual zone Digital LHD Interface Monitor Module offering advanced functionality to traditional Digital LHD systems.

 

A further important addition to Thermocable’s world leading family of digital linear heat detection technologies, the ProReact Interface Monitor Module is designed to work with the ProReact Digital Linear Heat Detection Cable and effectively monitor up to two zones at any one time.

 

The Digital Interface Monitor Module is unique in being approved to the UL864 10th edition standard, the most recent revision to the UL standard for fire alarm control panels and accessories. It has been designed and tested against the stringent requirements of the 10th edition including new tests to confirm the integrity of the software in the device. The Digital Interface Monitor Module simultaneously monitors two zones of Digital LHD cable for an alarm or fault condition. If an overheat or fire situation triggers either zone of the Digital LHD cable the Module automatically calculates and displays the distance along the cable, in feet and metres, to the alarm point. The two zones can operate independently of each other or in interlock/coincidence detection mode to eliminate the possibility of false alarms.

 

The Module is intended to be installed between the Digital Linear Heat Detection cable and a conventional or addressable fire alarm control panel. An RS-485 Modbus RTU output also allows direct connection into a PLC or other process control system.

Key Features

 

Advanced functionality for traditional Digital LHD systems

Pinpoints exact location of an incident and responds immediately

Simultaneous monitoring of up to two zones

Power indicator, fault and alarm lights for each zone

Volt-free outputs for fault and alarm, corresponding to each zone

Can be connected to an industrial process control system using the two-wire RS485 Modbus RTU output

Built-in sounder for audible annunciation

Interlock/Coincidence detection eliminates the possibility of false alarms by requiring both LHD cables to trigger before transmitting an alarm

UL, CE, RoHS approved to meet end user specifications

Simultaneous monitoring of up-to two zones increases potential applications. For example: pre-alarm on one zone/alarm on the other, fault-tolerant triggering of alarm (both zones must activate before alarm at panel)

Immediately pinpoints exact location and responds to an incident

Compatible with Thermocable’s ProReact Digital LHD cable

Can be retro-fitted to existing installations

Cost effectively increases functionality and performance

Connects to addressable fire alarm control panels for fast response to faults

Low installation and maintenance costs reduce total cost of ownership

Reliability through design, approvals and 3 year warranty
