Interface Unit - ZI-03

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The  ZI-03 interface monitors up to 5000 metres / 16,400 ft of Proline TH digital linear temperature sensing cable plus 50 ohms (maximum resistance) of interconnecting cable - where required.  Its development considers the potential for multiple extinguishing, ventilation, smoke extraction zones of operation within a single detection zone covered by the 5000m of Proline "TH" sensor cable and the preference for restricting extinguishing etc to the area in alarm only - thereby reducing costs associated with gaseous discharge and/or clean up of water based extinguishants.

A site programming facility allows sections of the sensor cable to be dedicated to 1 of up to 50 alarm outputs - allowing the customer control panel to identify which associated zone/s of extinguishing etc should be operated.  Minimum "sub-zone" length of sensor cable which may be programmed is 100 metres.

For areas where no dedicated alarm signal is required - as in transfer points from 1 floor or room to another - this length of sensor cable can be programmed as a "dead" zone - i.e. not dedicated to any specific alarm output.
