Designed to connect to the RS485 terminals on an EP203 Automatic Extinguisher Panel to provide remote system status indication via a 128 x 64 pixel LCD status display.
Also includes a pull-down manual release button, a mode (auto/manual) keyswitch and a wide range of system status indicators.
Three monitored input connections (Hold, Abort and Mode).
Max. 8 remote status units per EP203 panel.
Surface remote status units (EP210S) and weather proof enclosures (BF359/1) also available.
An optional system expansion device for use with the EP203 three zone automatic extinguisher panel.
Mounts inside the EP203 panel to provide five volt free relay contacts (reset, mode, discharged, hold and abort).
Reset relay switches during the panel’s reset cycle.
Mode relay switches when the extinguishant system’s mode is changed to manual.
Discharged relay switches when a released flow switch input (e.g. from the extinguishant pipework) is received to indicate the extinguishant has been released.
Hold relay switches when a hold input is received at the panel. If the panel is in 2nd stage alarm (i.e. it is in automatic mode and detection circuits are activated, or it is in either automatic/manual mode and a manual release input is operated) the extinguishant release sequence is halted.
Abort relay switches when an abort input is received at the panel to cancel the extinguishant release sequence.
‘Universal’ design combines multiple functions into one product, simplifying selection and reducing stock variants.
Supplied with a glass AND plastic element, a 470Ω AND 680Ω resistor and a red surface mounting back box which can be optionally discarded if flush mounting.
