Designed and built in compliance with current regulations in force, the fire detection control unit is capable of identifying anomalous situations and distinguishing them with diverse signals: alarm, pre-alarm, fault, warning, exclusion, test, monitor. All reports are visible both and on display on both LEDs.
The control panel has a number of areas which can be connected to the detectors.
Each detection unit is equipped with its own output of alarm repetition, allowing the alarm to be repeated on the monitoring system.
Both the smoke control unit and the signal light/acoustic alarm unit are supplied with a buffer battery, in this way danger can be detected even without power supply.
If the main 24V power supply of the control unit should fail, the malfunction is indicated visually (alarm warning light) on its control panel.
If both power supplies (main and buffer battery) should fail, the control unit activates the smoke alarm siren.
For further information on use and maintenance, please refer to the manufacturer’s manual.
The control unit has been set and tested by RIVA.
Do not alter the programming controls, read the user manual for a correct operation reset, or better, address RIVA Service Department.
In case the accumulator of the smoke detection unit is discharged, the siren starts automatically.
Use of the smoke control unit and of the signal light/ acoustic alarm unit
The batteries fitted to these units are maintenance free, they do not need to be filled with distilled water.
Keep the terminals on the battery top clean at all times to prevent the battery discharge. Check the battery terminals, they should not be loose and must not have any sign of rust or oxidation.
Apply some Vaseline on the terminals to prevent their corrosion.
Handle and dispose of batteries according to the rules in force. Use only authorised disposal procedures. In case of doubts, contact the Port Authority.
If possible, keep spare batteries on board.
