XP95 Heat Detector

ELECTRICAL

DESCRIPTION

The detectors are designed

to be connected to a two

wire loop circuit carrying

both data and a 17V to 28V

dc supply. The detectors are

connected to the incoming

and outgoing supply via

terminals L1 and L2 in the

mounting base. A remote

LED indicator requiring not

more than 4mA at 5V may

be connected between +R

and -R terminals. An earth

connection terminal is also

provided.

When a device is energised

the ASIC regulates the flow

of power and controls the

data processing. The

thermistor provides an output

over normal operating ranges

that is proportional to the

external air temperature.

This voltage output is

processed in the A/D

converter and stored by the

communications ASIC. It is

transmitted to control

equipment when the device

is interrogated. When a

count of 55 is exceeded the

alarm flag is initiated and

XP95 Heat Detector

Part Number 55000-400

OPERATING

PRINCIPLES

The XP95 heat detectors

have a common profile with

ionisation and optical smoke

detectors but have a low air

flow resistance case made of

self-extinguishing white

polycarbonate. The devices

monitor heat by using a

single thermistor network

which provides a voltage

output proportional to the

external air temperature.

The standard heat detectors,

55000-400 and 55000-420,

respond to increasing air

temperature in such a way

that they are classified as an

A2S device. See figure 13.

Both devices will give 55

counts at 55°C.

A high temperature CS heat

detector, 55000-401, which

can be installed in a typical

ambient temperature of

55°C is available. See

figure 14. This device will

give 55 counts at 90°C.

the device address is added

to the data stream every 32

polling cycles from its last

polling for the duration of

the alarm level condition,

except when an alarming

device is being interrogated.

This can provide a location

identified alarm from any

device on the loop in

approximately two seconds.

The detector is calibrated to

give an analogue value of

25±5 counts at 25°C.

ENVIRONMENTAL

CHARACTERISTICS

XP95 Standard Heat

Detectors operate over the

range -20°C to +70°C, the

High Temperature Heat

Detectors operate over the

range –20°C to +120°C.

The detectors are unaffected

by atmospheric pressure.
