13 Commissioning

13.1Introduction

The following equipment should be available where possible to minimise commissioning time:

i)VHF/UHF Portable Radio (for two engineers)

ii)Multi-meter or equivalent

13.2Commissioning Checklist

1.Before commissioning, the engineer should check the following:

i)All field wiring has been inspected and tested in accordance with CEL wiring recommendations, current issues of BS5839:1 and BS7671 IEE wiring regulations.

ii)All field cables are glanded into the control panel cabinet.

iii)Detector bases are terminated but detector heads are not fitted. Any devices with electronic components are not fitted. Terminations to devices with electronic components should be linked through to maintain cable continuity.

iv)Manual Call Points are not connected but cable is linked through to maintain continuity.

v)No end-of-line devices (e.g. alarm circuit EOL resistor) are fitted in the field.

2.The following information should be available to the commissioning team:

i)Detection layout drawings.

ii)Wiring schematic diagram.

v)Control Panel installation manuals.

vi)Installation manuals for all equipment connected to the system.

vii)Site specific configuration details.

Experience has shown that tracing wiring faults on long circuits that are routed through risers etc. can be difficult without knowledge of the wiring route.

It is recommended that the electrical installer be made available until basic wiring continuity is proven. A minimum of two persons (e.g. engineer and mate) is recommended for efficient commissioning.

13.3An Overview Of The Commissioning Procedure

Commissioning is broken in to 3 sections:

i)Pre-commissioning wiring check.

ii)Powering the panel up with no field wiring connected, configuring the panel in accordance with the site-specific requirements and carrying out a functional check.

iii)Functional testing of all circuits and field devices to check each circuit and function in turn to ensure correct operation of the entire system.

In this way any faults may be located quickly and accurately. The general procedures are as follows:

Alarm circuits should be checked first. The correct operation of each sounder should be checked for correct audibility as specified in BS5839:1, using the Evacuate function.

Detection zones should be commissioned next. The purpose is to establish the correct functioning of each device and checking for correct indication at the control panel. The panel responses as configured should be checked at this time.

All ancillary inputs and outputs should be commissioned and the functionality confirmed.

Fire protection signals should be tested.

Mx-1000 specifications

The BRK electronic Mx-1000 is an innovative and versatile device designed for both home and industrial use, primarily focusing on smoke and carbon monoxide detection. Its advanced features enhance safety, ensuring peace of mind for users in various environments.

One of the standout features of the Mx-1000 is its dual-sensor technology. It combines both photoelectric and ionization sensors, maximizing its ability to detect different types of smoke. Photoelectric sensors are highly effective at identifying smoldering fires, which are often associated with slow-burning materials. On the other hand, ionization sensors excel at detecting fast-flaming fires. This dual capability ensures comprehensive fire detection, making the Mx-1000 one of the most reliable devices in its category.

Another notable characteristic is its built-in carbon monoxide detector. Carbon monoxide is a silent killer, and the Mx-1000 addresses this threat by providing early warning signals when harmful levels of this gas are detected. The integration of both smoke and carbon monoxide detection in a single unit simplifies safety measures and reduces the number of devices required for home and workplace safety.

The Mx-1000 is equipped with advanced digital technology that enhances its functionality. A state-of-the-art microprocessor evaluates alarm conditions more intelligently, which minimizes the chances of false alarms. This feature is particularly beneficial for households that might experience frequent smoke triggers from cooking or other benign sources.

User-friendliness is a key design aspect of the Mx-1000. It features a clear LED display that indicates the operational status, and a simple test button allows users to verify functionality with ease. The device also features a low-battery indicator, ensuring users are always informed about its operational state.

Installation is straightforward, with options for both wall and ceiling mounting to accommodate various room layouts. The Mx-1000 is designed to appeal to a wide range of customers, from DIY enthusiasts to professional installers.

In addition to its technological advancements, the BRK electronic Mx-1000 is built with reliability in mind. Its durable construction is meant to endure various conditions, ensuring longevity and consistent performance over time. This combination of top-tier technology, user-friendly features, and robust design makes the Mx-1000 a trusted choice for those seeking comprehensive safety solutions in smoke and carbon monoxide detection.
