Description of components

  • Power supplies ZAFIRPWS2 / 5 are composed of the following elements
  • Box (360 x 326 x 85 mm): It has space for batteries and switching power.
  • Label holder: It is fitted to the upper frontal part of the box. It serves as a support for the control circuit in the rear side, and for the label on the outside.
  • It has a ground cable connecting the closest pin to the axe of rotation with another pin sited inside the box or fast on.
  • Door (368 x 336 mm): which is the fox by 4 front bolts near the corners (Letter C figure 1)
  • Cover: figure 6.
  • Control circuit: fixed to the back of the label holder, it contains the terminal connections poking out below the label holder.
  • Batteries: the control panel has reserved space at the bottom of the box. Supports up to 2 batteries 12V 7Ah.
  • Switching power: it is fixed to the bottom of the box in the top center behind the label holder.

Installation

Regarding the box, it is equipped with 4 circular knockouts of 28 mm and 1 rectangular 140 x 40 mm to allow access to wiring to the box (Letter A Figure 1). To install the box to the wall, there are 4 holes distributed on the back side near the corners. 2 rounds in the bottom of 8 mm diameter, and 2 ovals on top (Letter B figure 1). It is recommended to use a cable of 2 x 1,5mm twisted, shielded, and halogens-free for the fault and 30V output. The output wiring of batteries will be supplied with the equipment. It is important for the 30V output to keep in mind the resistance of the cable, length, and charge to calculate the appropriate section of the cable section; 2.5 mm maximum. Therefore, the installation of the control panel is as follows (see Figure 1):

  • Check that the place where the equipment will be installed is according to the temperature and humidity of the operating equipment (-5ºC ~ +40ºC / 20% ~ 93%).
  • Check that there is enough space to put the equipment and that nothing hinders its proper ventilation.
  • Check that the equipment is in good condition. Otherwise do not continue installing the equipment and contact your dealer.
  • Remove the door of the box by removing the bolts of the corners (Letter C Figure 1).
  • Make the necessary holes for attaching the panel to the wall. Keep in mind the holes in the corners of the chest.
  • Open knockouts are required for passing cables to the control panel (Letter A Figure 1).
  • Mount the box on the wall using the holes (Letter B Figure 1).
  • Place two 12V 7Ah batteries in the box of the power source.
  • Make the necessary connections according to the installation requirements, the equipment used, and the power source.
  • The power source must be connected to the 3 power terminal networks (phase, neutral, and ground), as shown in Figure 5.
  • Connect the equipment to the network and then connect the corresponding batteries.
  • During the first 30 seconds, the equipment does a self-test. After these 30 seconds, the equipment must be idle (red led on, battery led and fault led off).

Having to manipulate the label holder, be careful with the ground cable that connects one of its pins with the pin of the box and the cable connector that connects the control circuit with the switching power.
Note 1: Any connection and/ or manipulation of the external power supply must be disconnected from the electrical network and batteries.
Note 2: the box is designed with an IP30 protection index. If it is necessary to open the side knockouts for cable passage (letter A in Figure 1), consideration should be given to blocking the remaining space of the hole, for example with cable glands, to keep this same protection.

Maintenance

The points to consider for proper maintenance are:

  • Clean the outside of the power supply, especially the ventilation holes.
  • Check that the place where the equipment is installed according to the temperature and humidity operating equipment -5ºC ~ +40ºC / 20% ~ 93%.
  • Check that there is enough space for proper ventilation.
  • Check that the equipment is in good condition.
  • Perform a visual inspection of the contacts of the different outputs.
  • Change the batteries every 4 years.

Outputs

cofem-ZAFIRPWS2-5-External-Power-Supply-FIG-4Fault output Maximum charge 0.5 A at 24V Dry contact output is unsupervised which is activated by any anomaly of the external power supply and allows integration with other systems. With the external power supply under fault conditions or unpowered state, the common contact – Normally Open /NO) relay is short-circuited indicating BREAK DOWN. With the control unit powered without faults, the Common contact – Normally Open (NO) relay is electrically open.

Auxiliary output of 30V

  • CPWS2 20~30,5Vdc electricity 0 ~ 1,5 A.
  • CPWS5 20~30,5Vdc electricity 0 ~ 4 A.
  • Output is supervised and protected by a fuse, which allows the electrical feed of any element of the fire detection system that needs an external power supply.

Batteries outputs

  • 27 ~ 29,5Vdc charge 0 ~ 700mA.
  • The battery output is supervised and protected by a fuse. It allows battery connection to the external power supply.
  • Through this connection battery charging and status monitoring are performed.
  • This output is protected against reverse polarity.
  • It is recommended to use SLA 12V 7Ah type batteries.

Wiring

It is recommended to use a CABLE OF 2 x 1.5 mm TWISTED AND SCREENED, HALOGENS FREE for the fault output and output 30V. The output wiring of batteries will be supplied with the equipment. Important to output 30V to keep in mind the resistance of the cable length and charge to calculate the appropriate section of the cable, maximum section 2,5 mm.
