XP95

The XP95 range of analogue addressable fire detectors is advanced in design,
improved in performance and has unique features that benefit the installer and
the end user. The range includes both ionisation and optical smoke detectors,
temperature detectors as well as a multisensor. All have an unobtrusive profile,
a zero insertion force base, user friendly addressing and extended data and
alarm features. Associated compatible products - including interfaces, manual
call points, isolators
and
loop sounders - are also available.
The detectors have been carefully researched and developed by the Apollo
design team and the range has undergone rigorous testing to ensure that it meets
not only European and other standards but also the demands of today's high
technology environments.

Communications
Each XP95 device responds to interrogation and command from central control
equipment. It communicates to the panel information on status, command bits,
type, location, and other information that allows an alarm to be raised even
when the device is not itself being interrogated. Message error checking is also
provided. The devices are compatible with Series 90 systems and control
equipment to aid maintenance, extension and upgrade of existing systems.
Addressing
A
unique, patented addressing method provides simple, user friendly and accurate
identification of detector location. A coded XPERT card (left) is inserted in
the base. This can then be read by any XP95 detector once it is plugged in.
Using this method, all the electronic components are in the detector but the
location information is held in the base. The XPERT card simplifies and speeds
up installation and commissioning. Addressing errors during maintenance and
service are eliminated.
The XP95 manual call points use DIL switch addressing, but the interrupt
feature is extended to provide automatic reporting of call point location in the
interrupt mode. |
