Features

The extinguishing control function is fully integrated into

the Fire Detection Control Panel Series BC216. The Ex-

tinguishing Control Panel Series LC216 comprises the

following additional features:

• The Extinguishing Control Panel LC216-1 serves for

the actuation of an extinguishing system with up to

8 ﬂ ooding zones. By means of the networked Extin-

guishing Control Panel LCnet216, up to 127 extingu-

ishing systems can be actuated. Each extinguishing

system can control up to 32 ﬂ ooding zones, each

LCnet sectional control panel can administrate up to

8 ﬂ ooding zones. A maximum of 127 ﬂ ooding zones

can be controlled by an Extinguishing Control Panel

LCnet216.

• All zones with automatic ﬁ re detectors or manual call

points can be used for the actuation of the extinguis-

hing system. The respective detectors and detector

zones are assigned to the individual ﬂ ooding zones

by deﬁ ning combinations and dependencies.

• Input signals for the actuation of the extinguishing

system can be received through zone inputs in con-

ventional or ADM technology, as well as via ﬁ re briga-

de interface inputs.

The ADM technology allows to connect detectors,

signalling devices as well as monitor and control mo-

dules in intelligent analogue ring bus technology. A

safe supply of the loop elements is achieved through

the redundant cable path. Therefore, standard ﬁ re

detection cable can be used for wiring.

• Various zone and input types, such as „Emergency

hold device“, „Manual mode“, „Extinguishing medium

active“ or „Reset extinguishing system“ provide spe-

ciﬁ c functions for the actuation of the extinguishing

system.

• For the actuation of valves or signalling equipment,

various types of actuation are available, which can

be assigned to any outputs of the control panel or

to an ADM control module. The activation of these

actuations is timed according to EN 12094-1.

• The condition of ﬂ ooding zones or extinguishing sys-

tems can be output by the status outputs of the con-

trol panel or via ADM modules. Furthermore, status

LEDs can be freely parameterised as optical conditi-

on display.

• Depending on the size of the ﬂ ooding zone and the

capacity of the extinguishing agent cylinders, for

each ﬂ ooding zone the actuation of further ﬂ ooding

zones can be unblocked or blocked.

• In the appropriate authorisation level, a ﬂ ooding zone

can be operated at the display and operating unit of

the ﬁ re detection control panel. In addition to disab-

lements, enablements and toggling between manual

and automatic mode, it is also possible to test the

signalling equipment for pre-alarm and evacuation

alarm.

• The Extinguishing Control Panel Series LC216 can

be comfortably parameterised via PC by using the

Windows Parameter Setup Software PARSOFT. The

clear user interface allows an almost self-explanato-

ry deﬁ nition of the system conﬁ guration and thereby

minimizes the requirement for training. The entered

parameters can be loaded into the control panel after

an automatic veriﬁ cation for technical correctness.

In addition to all compulsory functions of EN 12094-1,

the extinguishing control panel fulﬁ ls the following opti-

ons of this standard:

• Delay of extinguishing signal

• Signal representing the ﬂ ow of extinguishing agent

• Monitoring of the status of components

• Emergency hold device

• Control of ﬂ ooding time

• Initiation of secondary ﬂ ooding

• Manual only mode

• Triggering signals to equipment within the system

• Extinguishing signals to spare cylinders

• Triggering of equipment outside the system

• Emergency abort device

• Control of extended discharge

• Release of the extinguishing media for selected ﬂ oo-

ding zones

Advanced featuresRedundant design

The Extinguishing Control Panel Series LC216 can be

optionally implemented with a hardware-redundant de-

sign. A redundant design is required according to the

standard EN 12094-1 for ﬁ xed gas extinguishing sys-

tems, if one sectional control panel actuates more than

one extinguishing area.

A redundant design of the extinguishing control panel

can be implemented by means of the ﬁ re detection

control panel modules in 19“ slide-in technology. The

parameterisation of the redundant extinguishing control

panel is fully supported by the Parameter Setup Softwa-

re PARSOFT.
