Control

Description

Mircom’s FR-320 is a dual releasing control unit that is field configurable for use on Deluge Sprinkler Systems, Pre-action Sprinkler Systems and Agent Release Systems.
The FR-320 is equipped with six Class “B” (Style “B”) input circuits and four Class “B” (Style “Y”) output circuits rated @ 1.7 Amps maximum. (Total of 5 Amps) Optional Class A converter modules are available for both input and output circuits. In addition both internal and external relays are supported by the FR-320. The relays can be configured for both single and dual hazard applications.

The FR-320 is field configurable for three releasing type functions; Deluge, Pre-Action Sprinklers and Agent Releasing. The mode of operation is easily configured by selecting one of 14 pre-configured modes of operation. The simple configuration process is done via the front panel using the CFG-300 configuration tool thus eliminating the need for a laptop or complicated programming.

The FR-320 comes complete with a red (FR-320-R) door, black enclosure, durable CAT-30 lock and key and space to mount up to 12 AH batteries.

Optional Modules

ICAC-306 Input Circuit Class “A” Converter Module The ICAC-306 converts six Class “B” (Style “B” input circuits on the FR-320 to Class “A” (Style “D”) circuits. The ICAC-306 is equipped with wire leads to connect to the FR-320 main board.

OCAC-304 Output Circuit Class “A” Converter Module The OCAC-304 converts four Class “B” (Style “Y”) output circuits on the FR-320 to Class “A” (Style “Z”) circuits. The OCAC-304 is equipped with wire leads to connect to the FR-320 main board.

RM-306 Relay Circuit Adder Module
The RM-306 provides six configurable relay circuits, rated @ 28 VDC, 1 amp (resistive). The RM-306 can be configured for single or dual hazard applications.

SRM-312 Smart Relay Module
The SRM-312 provides the same features as the RM-306 module. The SRM-312 provides twelve configurable relay circuits, rated @ 28 VDC, 1 amp (resistive). The SRM-312 comes with a red enclosure and is mounted remotely from the panel on an RS-485 connection.

Remote Annunciators

RAM-216R Remote LED Annunciator
The RAM-216R provides16 points respectively of LED annunciation and features bi-coloured LEDs which are auto-configurable for either Alarm (red) or Supervisory (amber). The LED annunciators have indicators for A.C. On, Common Trouble and Signal Silence and control switches for System Reset, Signal Silence, Lamp Test and Buzzer Silence. The RAM-216R is equipped with a keyswitch which allows for enabling and disabling of the Common Control functions and is available in a red finish and mount in a 4-gang electrical box.

RAM-1032TZDS Main Remote LED Annunciator
The RAM-1032TZDS Main Remote LED Annunciator provides common annunciator functions and 32 points of LED annunciation. The RAM-1032TZDS has indicators for A.C. On, Common Trouble and Signal Silence and controls for System Reset, Lamp Test, Fire Drill, Buzzer Silence and Signal Silence. The RAM-1032TZDS occupies the one display position in the BB-1001D, BB-1001DR, BB-1001DB and BB-1001DS enclosures.
