Wire routing

Figure 32 shows how to route input/output wires through the enclosure. It also shows the locations of wire-tie brackets. See Figure 27 on page 57 for knockout locations and dimensions. Metal conduit may be required by local codes when running input/output wires.

Providing low-voltage power for inputs and outputs

The Tracer MP581 controller can provide low-voltage power to inputs and outputs. Figure 33 on page 66 shows the location of the low-voltage screw terminals on the termination board. The following limitations apply:

Four 24 Vdc screw terminals supply a total of up to 250 mA of power.

Two 24 Vac screw terminals supply a total of up to 17 VA of power. The 50 VA of available power supplies both the 24 Vac screw terminals and binary outputs.

Note that more than one input or output can receive power from a given screw terminal. The only limitation is the total amount of power supplied.

Trane Engineered Smoke Control System for Tracer Summit Wire routing, Providing low-voltage power for inputs and outputs

BAS-APG001-EN, Engineered Smoke Control System for Tracer Summit specifications

The Trane Engineered Smoke Control System is an advanced solution designed to enhance safety and efficiency in buildings by effectively managing smoke during emergency situations. Specifically tailored for integration with the Tracer Summit Building Automation System, the Trane Engineered Smoke Control System (BAS-APG001-EN) combines cutting-edge technologies with user-friendly features, empowering facility managers to maintain optimal air quality and ensure occupant safety.

One of the standout features of the system is its programmable logic capabilities, which allow for customized smoke management strategies based on building layout and operations. This flexibility ensures that smoke is effectively controlled, providing clear egress paths for occupants while maintaining a safe environment for emergency responders. The system is engineered to operate seamlessly with other building systems, including HVAC and fire alarm systems, enabling a cohesive response during smoke events.

The Trane Engineered Smoke Control System employs sophisticated detection technologies that monitor air quality and detect smoke in real-time. This proactive approach facilitates early intervention, allowing for rapid activation of smoke control measures. Additionally, the integration of variable speed fans ensures that smoke is moved efficiently out of critical areas, reducing the risk of smoke inhalation for building occupants.

One of the key characteristics of this system is its ability to provide reliable, redundant operation. With engineered backup systems in place, the reliability of smoke control measures is significantly enhanced, ensuring that they will function correctly even in the event of a power failure. This is especially critical in high-rise buildings or complex structures, where smoke control is vital to occupant safety.

User interface features included in the Tracer Summit system offer intuitive controls and monitoring capabilities, simplifying the management of smoke control operations. Facility managers can easily view system status, receive alerts, and make necessary adjustments through the user-friendly dashboard, enhancing operational efficiency.

The Trane Engineered Smoke Control System stands out as a premier solution for smoke management in contemporary building designs. By integrating sophisticated detection technologies, programmable logic, and reliable operation, it provides an essential layer of safety in creating environments that prioritize occupant protection. As buildings continue to evolve, Trane’s commitment to innovation ensures that its Engineered Smoke Control System remains a key component in modern fire safety infrastructure.
