This video demonstrates the 24 volt auxilliary fire alarm relay.
Fire alarm door relay.
System sensor multi voltage conventional relays are used for high current switching applications such as fan and damper assembly control door control air handling unit controls and other types of building system interfacing.
It can be used with a mag lock or a strike that is configured in fail safe mode.
Gamewell fci silent knight firelite notifier siemens and est edwards are just a few name brand examples.
Fire alarm disconnect input options.
The siemens rpr 1 remote polarized is an optional accessory for a fire alarm system control unit.
Consult the list to find a relay for your specific fire alarm or notification system.
The intelligent fire alarm relay can only be used on intelligent fire alarm systems and is made specifically to work with particular brands of fire alarm systems.
In an emergency you may wish your fire alarm system to perform a number of automated tasks this could include switching off lights or closing doors.
In this configuration the 12 vdc power to the lock originates from a central power supply.
The fire alarm control relay is only used as a pilot duty switch to keep the auxiliary relay normally turned on.
With an alarm the fire alarm control relay switches off the auxiliary relay which in turn switches off the door holders.
The second way if the power supply does not have a set of fire alarm contacts is to use a supervised relay at the central point of generation.
Wiring them depends on what smoke heat alarms you have in if you have a fire panel unlikely in domestic unless landlord flats then use the open on alarm volts free relays to drop power to magnets if you have mains smoke heat detectors then they need to have an auxillary volts free output so you can use it again to drop power from magnets on alarm.
Fire alarm disconnect latching or non latching is individually selectable for any or all of the four 4 outputs.
B polarity reversal input from facp signaling circuit.
To do this you will require fire alarm relays devices which allow the automation of certain functions.
Simply connect a supervised relay from or in the fire alarm panel to the contacts and the ada supply will disconnect power to the locks.
Additional considerations to be met.
This unit allows the fire alarm system control unit to provide emergency control of other systems in the building such as air handling systems door control devices smoke control systems or other functions required by the local code and or local authority.
