Environmental Specifications
It is important to protect the 5895XL control panel from water. To prevent water damage, the
following conditions should be AVOIDED when installing the units:
•
Do not mount directly on exterior walls, especially masonry walls (condensation)
•
Do not mount directly on exterior walls below grade (condensation)
•
Protect from plumbing leaks
•
Protect from splash caused by sprinkler system inspection ports
•
Do not mount in areas with humidity-generating equipment (such as dryers, production
machinery)
When selecting a location to mount the 5895XL, the unit should be mounted where it will
NOT be exposed to temperatures outside the range of 0°C-49°C (32°F-120°F) or humidity
outside the range of 10%-93% at 30°C (86°F) noncondensing.
2.3
Preventing Water Damage
Water damage to the fire system can be caused by moisture entering the cabinet through the
conduits. Conduits that are installed to enter the top of the cabinet are most likely to cause
water problems. Installers should take reasonable precautions to prevent water from entering
the cabinet. Water damage is not covered under warranty.
