PRODUCTS
CONTROLLER 301C-DLC-W (Wireless)
A. The control panel must be capable of wireless communication with the
networked transmitter and relay modules through a 2.4 GHz RF module. The
control panel shall be able to communicate with and monitor up to 60
addressable transmitters, relay modules or annunciator panels. The control
panel shall be powered either by 24 Vac or 24 Vdc (always respect minimum
voltage requirements at device). The wireless transmitters shall be powered by
their own internal battery.
B. The controller wireless communication module must communicate with the network of wireless transmitters using the ISM 2.4GHz frequency band. The controller wireless communication module shall be capable of accepting up to 60 transmitters, including wireless relay modules.
C. The wireless communication system shall be able to use the MESH Network technology; if one communication link fails, the data is automatically rerouted through another monitor (transmitter) to ensure continuous communication. The controller shall transmit periodic RF signals to ensure that the transmitters are continually active.
D. The control panel will manage four internal DPDT relays at fully programmable alarm levels (and within programmable time delays) and be capable of activating multiple relay modules of eight relays each. The relay rating will be no lower than 5 A, 30 Vdc or 250 Vac resistive load.
E. The control panel must include a self-test function that allows for
the
activation/deactivation of all the programmed outputs by simulating a
continuous 5% increase/decrease value until the maximum/minimum value is
reached.
F. The control panel must include a real-time clock that enables operation of the outputs for a specific timeframe.
G. The control panel must also include an energy saving feature that allows for output operation on alarms set at the max, min or average value of a specific group of transmitters. This feature must allow for the activation of outputs upon certain number of a specific group (3/4, 1/2, 1/3, and 1/4) of transmitters reaching their alarm levels. A total of 128 groups can be assigned.
H. The control panel will be capable of communicating with an annunciator panel that can serve as a remote display panel in a secondary control room.
I. The control panel will indicate the exact concentration of gas, the gas detected, and the location of the sensor by sweeping through the network and displaying the detected levels at each point on a graphic LCD display.
J. The data logging capability must provide long-term data logging to determine trends. The control panel must collect data automatically and must store it on a digital Flash media card.
K. The control panel shall be able to incorporate a BACnet output for interfacing with the building automation system using a BACnet/IP protocol over Category 5 Ethernet wires. This is an option that does not come on the standard controller and must be ordered.
WIRELESS DETECTORS 301WCO & 301WNO2
A. The wall mounted wireless transmitter shall be able to communicate with the controller using a 2.4 GHz ISM frequency band with an indoor range of 30 meters. The transmitter shall incorporate an electrochemical sensor calibrated to one of the following gases; Carbon Monoxide with an accuracy of +/- 10 ppm, Nitrogen Dioxide with an accuracy of +/- 0.2ppm or Oxygen with an accuracy of 0.2%. The transmitter must identify a low battery with a blinking amber LED. The transmitter must report a depleted battery back to the controller. The controller will display the transmitter address and illuminate a yellow Fault LED.
B. The transmitter is powered by one 3.6 V, 19 AH battery. The transmitter’s sensor and battery cartridge shall be field replaceable and maintenance free, with a life span designed to operate no less than two years. The transmitter is designed to operate within the 15 to 95% rH range and -20°C to 50°C (-4°F to 122°F). The sensor unit will be compliant to CSA 61010-1 as manufactured by Honeywell Analytics.
Detector alarm levels are to be activated and the unit is to be installed in accordance with the following parameters:
TOXIC GASES| 1st ALARM SET POINT (TLV-TWA)| 2nd ALARM SET POINT
(TLV-STEL)| 3rd ALARM SET POINT| MOUNTING HEIGTH| COVERA GE
---|---|---|---|---|---
Carbon Monoxide (CO)| 25 ppm| 225 ppm| 5 ft (150 cm)above finished floor| 50
ft (15 m)|
Nitrogen Dioxide (NO2)| 0.72 ppm| 9.0 ppm| 1 ft (30 cm) from ceiling| 23 ft (7
m)|
Local Building Codes recommendations have preference over these parameters. Coverage can differ depending on application
