13.7.2Commissioning zones

1.Work logically and systematically through each zone.

2.Zone fault conditions:

Remove the end-of-line device from the zone 1 terminals and connect the cables of the zone 1 circuit to the panel terminals, observing the correct polarity. Check that any zone 1 fault indications clear after a few seconds.

Check the fault monitoring of the cable is correct by applying an open circuit then a short circuit at the end-of-line device (in the field). Check that the fault condition is indicated on zone 1 on the fire panel.

Remove the circuit faults, restoring the circuit to the healthy condition and confirm that the fault indication clears.

3.Zone fire conditions

Starting with the device nearest the panel, operate each manual call point and detection device on the zone in turn.

After operation of each device confirm:

The fire indication is provided on the panel on the correct zone.

The fire alarm devices operate correctly in line with the panel configuration.

The Fire Routing and Fire protection outputs operate correctly in line with the panel configuration.

Press the Silence Alarms and the Reset buttons after each device test and check the alarm clears (Manual Call Points must be manually reset before restting the panel).

4.Detector removal operation.

Remove the 1st detector along the zone cable [counting from the panel] on zone 1 and observe the following:

The appropriate amber zone fault LED illuminates

The internal buzzer sounds

The fault relay operates

For non I.S. zone applications:

Operate a manual call point between the detector that has been removed and the EOL capacitor. Check that the panel reacts as described above for a fire condition.

Refit the detector, reset the manual call point, press the “Silence Alarms” button and then the “System Reset” button on the panel’s display board and check that the control panel returns to its normal state.

Repeat for all detectors on the zone.

For I.S. zone applications:

Remove the 1st detector in the zone cable [counting from the panel] and operate a manual call point ensuring that the correct fire alarm condition is raised on the panel (assuming the installation complies with BS5839).

Continue to check the operation of all other manual call points on the zone, resetting the manual call point and silencing/resetting the panel at each stage.

Refit the detector and check that the control panel returns to its normal state.

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.
