NOTES

1)The maximum number of detectors per AZC allowed by the standard is 40.

2)Those detectors shown in brackets are old models and have the same characteristics as the current models.

3)Detectors indicated by a "x" may be used in INTRINSICALLY SAFE AREAS in conjunction with approved and compatible, intrinsically safe adaptors. The number allowed in a particular circuit may be less than the maximum shown. See Section 9.4.

V41/42/44B detectors have flameproof enclosures.

4)Detectors indicated by a "+", which are used in HOSTILE CLIMATIC ENVIRONMENTS, may be directly connected to the panel, if they are not required to be intrinsically safe.

5)Detectors indicated by a "*", are not current models and should not be used for new installations.

6)Detectors indicated by an "&", normally use an incandescent lamp which will have a low intensity when used in mode 1.

The lamp can be replaced with an LED kit.

7)The B111B beam and V41B/V42B/V44B flame detectors require power from the fused +24 VDC supply.

8)Hard Contact devices are indicated by a "#". Where an AZC has only hard contact detectors the circuit resistance may be up to 150 Ohms maximum to guarantee voltage band B1 operation.

9)There is a 12V version of Flameguard which may be used by adding a Zener diode. The Intertec detectors require a series diode to be fitted for compatibility. Both of these are detailed in Product Bulletin PBF0080.

10)The Olsen FW81B code for fire wire has been replaced by FW followed by the temperature rating in ° C, eg. FW68, FW105. Only FW68 is currently approved and listed.
