Hochiki and SK SLC Device Installation

5.3Maximum Number of Devices

The 5820XL supports SK or Hochiki devices on one 5820XL system. The maximum number of devices per system varies depending on device protocol and the number of 5815XL signaling circuit loop (SLC) expanders added to the system. Device support is as follows:

•SK Devices–A 5820XL system can support a total of 396 SK detectors and 396 SK modules. 99 detectors and 99 modules can be connected to the built-in SLC loop. Each optional 5815XL adds another 99 detectors and 99 modules. Add up to three 5815XLs to a system to achieve the maximum number of devices on the system.

•Hochiki Devices–A 5820XL system can support a total of 508 Hochiki SLC detectors and modules, in any combination. 127 devices can be connected to the built-in SLC loop. Each optional 5815XL adds another 127 devices.

5.4Wiring Requirements for SLC Devices

The following information applies to all SLC devices. Refer to the section that describes the type of device you are installing for details.

5.4.1Wiring 5815XL in Style 4 (Class B) Configuration

No special wire is required for addressable loops. The wire can be untwisted, unshielded, solid or stranded as long as it meets the National Electric Code 760-51 requirements for power limited fire protective signaling cables. Wire distances are computed using copper wire.

Maximum wiring resistance is 40 ohms for SK devices and 50 ohms for Hochiki devices.

Maximum loop length depends on the wire gauge. See Table 5-1for SK and Table 5-2 for Hochiki.
