Fire Alarm & Emergency Communication System Limitations

While a life safety system may lower insurance rates, it is not a substitute for life and property insurance!

An automatic fire alarm system—typically made up of smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations, audible warning devices, and a fire alarm control panel (FACP) with remote notification capability—can provide early warning of a developing fire. Such a system, however, does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire.

An emergency communication system—typically made up of an automatic fire alarm system (as described above) and a life safety communication system that may include an autonomous control unit (ACU), local operating console (LOC), voice communication, and other various interoperable communication methods—can broadcast a mass notification message. Such a system, however, does not assure protection against property damage or loss of life resulting from a fire or life safety event.

The Manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat detectors be located throughout a protected premises following the recommendations of the current edition of the National Fire Protection Association Standard 72 (NFPA 72), manufacturer's recommendations, State and local codes, and the recommendations contained in the Guide for Proper Use of System Smoke Detectors, which is made available at no charge to all installing dealers. This document can be found at http:// www.systemsensor.com/appguides/. A study by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (an agency of the United States government) indicated that smoke detectors may not go off in as many as 35% of all fires. While fire alarm systems are designed to provide early warning against fire, they do not guarantee warning or protection against fire. A fire alarm system may not provide timely or adequate warning, or simply may not function, for a variety of reasons:

Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke cannot reach the detectors such as in chimneys, in or behind walls, on roofs, or on the other side of closed doors. Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on another level or floor of a building. A second-floor detector, for example, may not sense a first-floor or basement fire.

Particles of combustion or “smoke” from a developing fire may not reach the sensing chambers of smoke detectors because:

• Barriers such as closed or partially closed doors, walls, chimneys, even wet or humid areas may inhibit particle or sm

oke

flow.

•

Smoke particles may become “cold,” stratify, and not reach t

eiling or upper walls where detectors are located.

• Smoke particles may be blown away from detectors by air outlets, such as air conditioning vents.

• Smoke particles may be drawn into air returns before reachi

he detector.

The amount of “smoke” present may be insufficient to alarm smoke detectors. Smoke detectors are designed to alarm at various levels of smoke density. If such density levels are not created by a developing fire at the location of detectors, the detectors will not go into alarm.

Smoke detectors, even when working properly, have sensing limitations. Detectors that have photoelectronic sensing chambers tend to detect smoldering fires better than flaming fires, which have little visible smoke. Detectors that have ionizing-type sensing chambers tend to detect fast-flaming fires better than smoldering fires. Because fires develop in different ways and are often unpredictable in their growth, neither type of detector is necessarily best and a given type of detector may not provide adequate warning of a fire.

Smoke detectors cannot be expected to provide adequate warning of fires caused by arson, children playing with matches (especially in bedrooms), smoking in bed, and violent explosions (caused by escaping gas, improper storage of flammable materials, etc.).

Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion and alarm only when heat on their sensors increases at a predetermined rate or reaches a predetermined level. Rate-of-rise heat detectors may be subject to reduced sensitivity over time. For this reason, the rateof-rise feature of each detector should be tested at least once per year by a qualified fire protection specialist. Heat detectors are designed to protect property, not life.

IMPORTANT! Smoke detectors must be installed in the same room as the control panel and in rooms used by the system for the connection of alarm transmission wiring, communications, signaling, and/or power. If detectors are not so located, a developing fire may damage the alarm system, compromising its ability to report a fire.

Audible warning devices such as bells, horns, strobes, speakers and displays may not alert people if these devices are located

on the other side of closed or partly open doors or are located on another floor of a building. Any warning device may fail to alert people with a disability or those who have recently consumed drugs, alcohol, or medication. Please note that:

• An emergency communication system may take priority over a fire alarm system in the event of a life safety emergency.

• Voice messaging systems must be designed to meet intelligibility requirements as defined by NFPA, local codes, and Authoritie

Havi

ng Jurisdiction (AHJ).

• Language and instructional requirements must be clearly disseminated on any local displays.

• Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause seizures in people with conditions such as epilepsy.

• Studies have shown that certain people, even when they hear a fire alarm signal, do not respond to or comprehend the meani

the signal. Audible devices, such as horns and bells, can hav

fferent tonal patterns and frequencies. It is the property

owner's responsibility to conduct fire drills and other traini

ercises to make people aware of fire alarm signals an

nstruct them on the proper reaction to alarm signals.

• In rare instances, the sounding of a warning device can ca

use

emporary or permanent hearing loss

life safety system will not operate without any electrical power. If

AC power fails, the system will operate from standby batteries only for a specified time and only if the batteries have been properly maintained and replaced regularly.

Equipment used in the system may not be technically compatible with the control panel. It is essential to use only equipment listed for service with your control panel.

Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a premises to a central monitoring station may be out of service or temporarily disabled. For added protection against telephone line failure, backu

p radio transmission systems are recommended.

The most common cause of life safety system malfunction is inadequate maintenance. To keep the entire life safety system in excellent working order, ongoing maintenance is required per the manufacturer's recommendations, and UL and NFPA standards. At a minimum, the requirements of NFPA 72 shall be followed. Environments with large amounts of dust, dirt, or high air velocity require more frequent maintenance. A maintenance agreement should be arranged through the local manufacturer's representative. Maintenance should be scheduled as required by National and/or local fire codes and should be performed by authorized professional life safety system installers only. Adequate written records of all inspections should be kept.

Installation Precautions

Adherence to the following will aid in problem-free installation with long-term reliability:

WARNING - Several different sources of power can be connected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all sources of

power before servicing. Control unit and associated equipment may be damaged by removing and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting cables while the unit is energized. Do not attempt to install, service, or operate this unit until manuals are read and understood.

CAUTION - System Re-acceptance Test after Software Changes: To ensure proper system operation, this product must be

tested in accordance with NFPA 72 after any programming operation or change in site-specific software. Re-acceptance testing is required after any change, addition or deletion of system components, or after any modification, repair or adjustment to system hardware or wiring. All components, circuits, system operations, or software functions known to be affected by a change must be 100% tested. In addition, to ensure that other operations are not inadvertently affected, at least 10% of initiating devices that are not directly affected by the change, up to a maximum of 50 devices, must also be tested and proper system operation verified.

This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0-49º C/ 32-120º F and at a relative humidity . However, the useful life of the system's standby batteries and the electronic components may be adversely affected by extreme temperature ranges and humidity. Therefore, it is recommended that this system and its peripherals be installed in an environment with a normal room temperature of 15-27º C/60-80º F.

Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating and indicating device loops. Most devices cannot tolerate more than a 10% I.R. drop from the specified device voltage.

Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may operate erratically or can be damaged when subjected to lightning induced transients. Although no system is completely immune from lightning transients and interference, proper grounding will reduce susceptibility. Overhead or outside aerial wiring is not recommended, due to an increased susceptibility to nearby lightning strikes. Consult with the Technical Services Department if any problems are anticipated or encountered.

Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to removing or inserting circuit boards. Failure to do so can damage circuits.

Remove all electronic assemblies prior to any drilling, filing, reaming, or punching of the enclosure. When possible, make all cable entries from the sides or rear. Before making modifications, verify that they will not interfere with battery, transformer, or printed circuit board location.

Do not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in-lbs. Over-tightening may damage threads, resulting in reduced terminal contact pressure and difficulty with screw terminal removal.

This system contains static-sensitive components. Always ground yourself with a proper wrist strap before handling any circuits so that static charges are removed from the body. Use static suppressive packaging to protect electronic assemblies removed from the unit.

Follow the instructions in the installation, operating, and programming manuals. These instructions must be followed to avoid damage to the control panel and associated equipment. FACP operation and reliability depend upon proper installation.

The Honeywell Power Products FireForce (HPFF) is one of the most innovative fire alarm remote power supplies available that complies with UL 864 9th Edition. Designed with advanced switch-mode power supply technology and built with the latest surface-mount electronic manufacturing techniques, they incorporate several new features that demanding installers requested to speed them through installation and servicing.

The HPFF12 is a 12.0 A power supply that provides power for Notification Appliance Circuit (NAC) expansion to support ADA requirements and strobe synchronization (sync). It provides filtered 24 VDC power to drive four NAC outputs. The four-output circuits may be configured as: four Class B (Style Y); two Class A (Style Z); two Class B and one Class A; or four Class A with the optional HPP31076 Class A adapter installed. The input circuits, which control the power supply operation, are triggered by the reverse polarity of a NAC or by the reverse polarity of a 12 VDC or 24 VDC power source. The power supply is compatible with 12 VDC or 24 VDC control panels. It contains an internal battery charger capable of charging up to 26.0 AH (amp hour) batteries.

The HPFF12 is a wall cabinet unit that can accommodate up to two 18 AH batteries. It can be configured to internally house one addressable control or relay module, a six-circuit relay module, or a six-circuit control module. (Modules available through authorized Honey-

well Fire Systems distributors.)

HPFF12CM is a chassis-mount model that can fit two 12.0 AH batteries. It is used for a multi-pack option that allows up to three HPFF12CM units to be mounted in a compatible Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) cabinet; these separately sold cabinets are also referred to as the large equipment enclosure. The addressable control or relay module option is not available on these models. (Equip-

ment enclosures available through authorized Honeywell Fire Systems distributors.)

HPFF12 and HPFF12CM power supply models operate at 120 VAC/60 Hz.

HPFF12E and HPFF12CME power supply models are export units that operate at 240 VAC/50 Hz.

NOTE: When an HPFF12CM unit is mounted in a FACP cabinet, the top row must be left open for proper heat dissipation.

1.1 General

The HPFF power supplies are used as remotely mounted power supplies and battery chargers. The Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) or initiating device is connected to the input circuit(s). When the control input circuit activates due to the reverse polarity of the signal from the initiating device, the power supply will activate its NAC outputs.

During the inactive or non-alarm state, the power supply supervises its NAC field wiring independently for short and open conditions. If a NAC fault is detected, the power supply will open the initiating device input signal to notify the FACP and the Normally-Closed Trouble contact. If an AC loss is detected, the power supply will open the initiating device input signal, Normally-Closed Trouble, and a dedicated AC Fail contact.

If an alarm condition occurs and the NAC outputs are activated, the supervision and charger are disabled and the NAC circuit is no longer supervised (except for excessive loading or shorts). Supervision of other power supply faults such as battery voltage, AC loss, and ground fault will continue and may be monitored via Trouble contacts.

System Overview Start-up Procedure

• Two independent optically-isolated input/control circuits, compatible with 12 VDC and 24 VDC control panel NACs

• Selectable strobe synchronization for NACs compatible with System Sensor, Cooper Wheelock, Faraday, Amseco, and Gentex notification appliances

• Selectable pass-through or filtered input – Pass-through input of steady, coded audible, and synchronized strobe signals to NAC outputs – Filtered for full-wave-rectified polarity-reversing inputs or reducing spurious noise to generate steady-on NAC outputs

• Silenceable with two independent alarm inputs or by passed-through synchronization protocol

• Split Alarm mode allows a combination of coded signals outputs and Selectable Silence on NAC pairs

• Selectable silence with two independent alarm inputs and the HPFF programmed in Split Alarm mode

• End-of-line resistor compare: – Attach a single reference resistor to match value of the NAC end-of-line resistor (ELR) – Provides use of a wide range of ELR resistors’ values: 1.9K ohms to 25K ohms – Eases retrofit installations by matching existing ELR value without having to locate in the field. (ELRs must be UL Listed.)

• NAC Trouble memory: – Individual NAC Trouble LEDs blink if past troubles occurred – Aids installer or repair personnel to find the location of past troubles

• Fixed, clamp-style terminal blocks to accommodate 12 AWG (3.31 mm²) to 22 AWG (0.326 mm²) wire

• Separate Trouble and AC Fail Form-C relay contacts

1.4.1 Charger Disable Jumper (J1)

The HPFF power supplies’ battery charger capacity is 26 AH maximum using the integral charger with a maximum charging rate of 0.75 A. The integral charger on the Control circuit board must be disabled in certain situations by removing the charger-disable jumper. One situation is when system requires a common battery set, as is possible in the large equipment enclosure. Another situation is if the system requires a larger battery capacity than the integral charger can charge in the proper time. Larger capacity batteries can be used if they are housed in an external UL-Listed enclosure, along with a UL-Listed battery charger that can restore the full charge to the batteries in the proper time.

CAUTION: BATTERY CHARGER DISABLE

THE BATTERY CHARGER IS AUTOMATICALLY DISABLED DURING ALARM, SO BATTERIES WILL NOT BE CHARGED WHEN THE POWER SUPPLY IS IN THE ALARM STAGE.

Larger capacity batteries can be used if they are housed in an external UL-Listed enclosure, along with a UL-Listed battery charger suitable for fire alarm service and with sufficient capacity to restore the full charge in the required time. The alternate enclosure and battery charger shall be listed for Fire Protective Signaling use.

1.4.2 Ground Fault Disable Jumper (J2)

The Ground Fault detection circuit on the Control circuit board monitors the impedance from earth ground to any user wiring point, including +24 VDC. An exception is the initiating device signal inputs because they are optically-isolated from the rest of the circuitry and should be detected by the initiating device or FACP. Remove ground-fault disable jumper to disable the ground fault detection.

If the common circuitry of two or more HPFFs are connected together, or if the common of an HPFF is connected to the common of a system, such as a single battery connected to multiple units, then the ground fault jumpers must be removed from all but

one of the units. The unit with the jumper installed provides the ground monitoring for the whole system. If two or more units are connected together with ground fault monitoring enabled, then the monitoring circuits interfere with each other, and false ground faults will be generated.

Each cabinet mounts using two or three key slots and two 0.250" (6.35 mm) diameter holes in the backbox. The key slots are located at the top of the backbox and the two securing holes at the bottom.

Carefully unpack the system and check for shipping damage. Mount the cabinet in a clean, dry, vibration-free area where extreme temperatures are not encountered. The area should be readily accessible with sufficient room to easily install and maintain the panel. Locate the top of the cabinet approximately 5 feet (1.5 m) above the floor with hinge mounting on the left. Determine the number of conductors required for the devices to be installed. Sufficient knockouts are provided for wiring convenience. Select the appropriate knockout(s) and pull the conductors into the box. All wiring should be in accordance with the National and/or Local codes for fire alarm systems and power supplies.

2.1 Backbox Mounting

CAUTION: STATIC SENSITIVE COMPONENTS

THE CIRCUIT BOARD CONTAINS STATIC-SENSITIVE COMPONENTS. ALWAYS GROUND YOURSELF WITH A STATIC STRAP BEFORE HANDLING ANY BOARDS SO THAT THE STATIC CHARGES ARE REMOVED FROM THE BODY. USE STATIC SUPPRESSIVE PACKAGING TO PROTECT ELECTRONIC ASSEMBLIES.

To prevent damage to the circuit board and to facilitate backbox mounting, the chassis with the 24 VDC power supply and the Control circuit board can be easily removed. Loosen the two #8-32 nuts securing the top flanges of the chassis, then slide the chassis up to free it from the lower tabs. Place the chassis assembly in a safe location until it can be reinstalled in the backbox.

1. Mark and pre-drill a hole in the wall for the center top keyhole mounting bolt using the dimensions illustrated in Figure 2.2 or

Figure 2.3.

NOTE: See the EQ Series Install Sheet PN 53412 for door-mounting details and measurements for B-size and C-size backboxes.

2. Install the center top fastener in the wall with screw head protruding.

3. Place backbox over the top screw, level and secure.

4. Mark and drill the left and right upper and lower mounting holes.

Note: outer holes (closest to sidewall) are used for 16" O.C. stud mounting.

5. Install remaining fasteners.

2.3.4 HPP31076 Optional Class A (Style Z) Adapter

The HPP31076 is an optional adapter to connect four Class A (Style Z) NAC circuits. It mounts directly onto the terminal block TB4 of the Control circuit board. The adapter kit includes two plastic standoffs to provide support. The same gauge wire must be used if two conductors are connected to the same terminal of any terminal block.

NOTE: Only use batteries with a maximum height of 4 inches in applications that require this adapter in the standard enclosure. Otherwise, there is insufficient space to connect NAC field wiring, and a separate NFPA and UL 864 rated enclosure is required.

2.4 Mounting Addressable Modules

NOTES:

1. Typical ELRs for new installations can be 3.9k or 4.7k ohm.

2. The same gauge wire must be used if two conductors are connected to the same terminal of any terminal block.

3. Do not complete a continuous circuit around the screw terminal. There must be two separate wires on either side of the screw at the terminal block. “T-tapping” is absolutely NOT ALLOWED.

The HPFF12 and the HPFF12E are designed to mount Honeywell Fire Systems addressable control or relay modules on the Control circuit board inside the power supply cabinet. This allows power to be fed from the Auxiliary output directly to the module, if needed, without running the power wires outside the cabinet. For a list of compatible optional modules that can be connected to the Auxiliary output, see the HPP Device Compatibility Document. Two single output modules may be mounted directly above each other if required by applications such as Split Alarm or Selective Silence. Alternately, two outputs of a 6-output addressable module can also be used and mounted on the Control board.

Figure 2.14 Mounting Details for Control & Relay Modules from Honeywell Fire Systems

2.4.1 Mounting Modules from Honeywell Fire Systems

Addressable modules can be mounted directly to the Control circuit board as shown in Figure 2.14 for the wall cabinet. This allows wiring to remain in the cabinet. Two modules can be mounted on top of each other if the application requires two independent inputs, such as silencing. Alternately, two outputs of a six-output addressable module can also be used. The six-output module can also be mounted directly on the Control board.

Mounting addressable modules on the Control circuit board is also possible in the HPFF12CM(E) units. However, the six-output module must be mounted in an optional multi-module chassis if used in the large cabinet enclosure.

See Section 2.5, “Power-Limited Wiring Requirements”.

2.4.2 Mounting Six-Circuit Modules from Honeywell Fire Systems

Six-output addressable modules can be mounted directly to the control circuit board as shown in Figure 2.15 for the wall cabinet. This allows wiring to remain in the cabinet. However, the six-output module cannot be mounted as shown in the HPFF12CM(E) units when used in the large equipment enclosure. An optional multi-module chassis is available from Honeywell Fire Systems.

See Section 2.5, “Power-Limited Wiring Requirements”.

2.5 Power-Limited Wiring Requirements

Power-limited and non-power-limited circuit wiring must remain separated in the cabinet. All power-limited wiring must remain at least

0.25" away from any non-power-limited circuit wiring. Furthermore, all power-limited circuit wiring and non-power-limited circuit wiring must enter and exit the cabinet through different conduits. An example of this is shown below. Your specific application may require different conduit knockouts to be used in the standard cabinet. Any conduit knockouts may be used. For power-limited applications, use of conduit is optional.

3.2.1 Input/Output Functions

DIP switches 1 through 4 are used to determine the input to output functions of the HPFF power supplies. The NAC outputs are programmed in pairs. DIP switches 1 and 2 are used to determine the input to output functions for NAC outputs 1 and 2. DIP switches 3 and 4 are used determine the input to output functions for NAC outputs 3 and 4.

The pass-through feature passes any signal on the initiating device inputs to the NAC outputs. These signal inputs are independent in pass-through, so visual sync protocol and audible coded signals may be passed simultaneously. The signal types may include steady-on, march time, temporal or audible coded signals.

The temporal generator feature is used to have the power supply generate a temporal audible code.

The filtered feature is used to provide a steady-on output with full-wave rectified unfiltered input, and can be used to reduce or eliminate spurious outputs that are caused by noise on the inputs.

3.2.2 Synchronization Type

Synchronization is a feature that controls the activation of notification appliances in such a way that all devices turn on and off at exactly the same time. Unsynchronized strobe activation can be a potential hazard and can cause confusion. The HPFF power supplies can be programmed to operate with a variety of manufacturers’ devices.

DIP switches 5 and 6 are used to select the synchronization type when switches 1 & 2 and 3 & 4 are programmed for the power supply to be a sync generator.

3.2.3 Trouble Reporting Delay with an AC Failure

There are three ways to report trouble of AC loss or brownout. The transfer of TB2's AC FAIL contacts, TB2's TROUBLE contacts, and the opening of the FACP or initiating device SIGNAL 1’s and SIGNAL 2’s connections on TB3.

Both SIGNAL 1’s and SIGNAL 2’s +IN to +OUT connections are opened to disconnect Class B ELR’s or the positive wire run of Class A configuration. They remain closed in the alarm state, even if a trouble condition exists, to pass the alarm signal if multiple units are connected. Therefore, supervised monitoring TB2's AC FAIL and TROUBLE contacts is necessary for UL 864 9th Edition compliance.

• DIP switch 7 set to the ON position will delay the transfer of the TB2's TROUBLE contacts and the opening of connections on TB3 for 2 hours (unless in alarm state), upon an AC loss or brownout.

• DIP switch 7 set to the OFF position will have no delay in the transfer of the TB2's TROUBLE contacts and the opening of ELR connections on TB3 (unless in alarm state), upon an AC loss or brownout.

TB2's AC FAIL contacts will always immediately transfer if an AC loss or brownout occurs, regardless of DIP switch 7 setting. These contacts can be used for local reporting to the protected premises, in compliance with UL 864 9th Edition.

Programmable Features Programming Options

The DIP switch 7 setting of a 2 hour delay of TB2 TROUBLE contacts can be used for remote station, central station, or proprietary protected premises reporting, in compliance with UL 864 9th Edition.

NOTE: Always use supervised monitoring of TB2’s AC FAIL and TROUBLE contacts and to set DIP switch 7 for a delay for UL 864 9th Edition compliance.

3.2.4 Split Alarm and Silencing

DIP switch 8, in conjunction with initiating device signal inputs and DIP switches 1 through 6, is used to program the features of General Alarm, Split Alarm, or Silencing.

• DIP switch 8 set to the ON position will split the NAC outputs to pairs. NAC outputs 1 & 2 are controlled by Signal Input 1 and NAC outputs 3 & 4 are controlled by Signal Input 2. The output pairs will be selectively silenced if DIP switches 1 through 6 are set for Pass-through and FACP input is wired and programmed for that operation.

• DIP switch 8 set to the OFF position and at least one of the NAC outputs are programmed for synchronization, Signal Input 1 & 2 ON will generate a General Alarm on all four NAC outputs. General Alarm is activation of both visual strobe and audible horns.

• DIP switch 8 set to the OFF position and at least one of the NAC outputs are programmed for synchronization, Signal Input 1 ON and Signal Input 1 OFF will silence all four NAC outputs while keeping visual strobe activation.

NOTE: See Section 5.1 and 5.2 for proper alarm input wiring when DIP switch 8 is programmed in the OFF position.

4.2.3 TB2: AC FAIL Contacts

TB2’s AC FAIL contacts are not supervised by the HPFF power supply, but will be supervised by the FACP. The normally shorted COMM and N/C contacts will transfer to the COMM and N/O contacts being shorted, only when an AC failure occurs. The transfer

always occurs immediately

Edition.

4.2.4 TB2: TROUBLE Contacts

TB2’s TROUBLE contacts are not supervised by the HPFF power supply, but will be supervised by the FACP. The normally shorted COMM and N/C contacts will transfer to the COMM and N/O contacts being shorted when a fault condition occurs. The transfer will not be delayed except if the fault is an AC failure and DIP switch 7 is in the ON position. The transfer will be delayed for 2 hours in this case. These contacts should be used for delayed remote reporting of an AC failure for compliance of UL 864 9

4.2.5 TB3: Initiating Device Inputs SIGNAL 1 and SIGNAL 2

TB3’s alarm SIGNAL 1 and SIGNAL 2 inputs are not supervised by the HPFF power supply. They will be supervised by the FACP or initiating device. The four connections +IN, –IN, +OUT, and –OUT are used to connect either from a two-wire/Class B (Style Y) NAC with an end-of-line resistor (ELR) or a four-wire/Class A (Style Z) NAC.

Both SIGNAL 1’s and SIGNAL 2’s +IN to +OUT connections are opened to disconnect Class B ELR’s or the positive connection of Class A input. However, they will always remain closed* in the alarm state, even if a trouble condition exists. The alarm signal will then be passed if multiple units are connected.

NOTE: *TB3's SIGNAL 1 and SIGNAL 2 connections remain closed in the alarm state. Always use supervised monitoring of TB2's TROUBLE and AC FAIL contacts to annunciate troubles at the FACP.

4.2.6 Trouble Memory

The HPFF has NAC Trouble Memory by storing the NAC output number(s) when a trouble has been experienced. The unit will then blink the corresponding yellow SIGTRBL LED(s) when all the troubles are cleared. This helps the installer or repair personnel to find the cause of intermittent troubles.

The NAC Trouble Memory is permanently latched. To clear it, the AC must be cycled and the battery momentarily disconnected, or just press SW2 (microprocessor reset) on the control PCB.

If the panel is in alarm, an excessively loaded or shorted NAC is only trouble condition that will cause the Trouble contacts to transfer.

Edition.

HPFF12 NAC Expander — P/N 53576:B3 10/1/2018 33

Page 34

Trouble Supervision Trouble Reporting

If the current in any NAC exceeds 3.5 A due to excessive loading, the unit disables its output for approximately 8 seconds. The unit will then attempt to re-engage the NAC output(s), and will disable it if the 3.5 A is exceeded again. If an overload condition exceeding 4.0 A exists for more than two re-engagements, the unit will illuminate the corresponding yellow SIG TRBL LED(s) steady and generate a general trouble. This is a latched overload condition, but the unit will keep attempting to re-engage the NAC output. The general trouble transfers only the Trouble contact until the alarm condition clears.

4.2.7 Ground Fault Detection

A ground fault trouble will be generated if there is 50 K ohms or lower between Earth Ground and the field wiring, except the initiating device SIGNAL 1 and SIGNAL2 inputs and TB2 AC FAIL and TROUBLE contacts. The signal inputs are optically-isolated from the HPFF’s circuitry and will be supervised by the FACP. TB2’s contacts are dry contacts and will be supervised by the FACP.

4.2.8 NAC Overload Protection and Indication

If the current in any NAC exceeds the 3.5 A maximum, the unit disables its output for approximately 8 seconds. The unit will then attempt to re-engage the NAC output(s), and will disable it if the 3.5 A is exceeded again. If an overload condition exceeding 4.0 A exists for more than two re-engagements, the unit will illuminate the corresponding yellow SIG TRBL LED(s) steady and transfer the TB2’s TROUBLE contacts. This is a latched overload condition, but the unit will keep attempting to re-engage the NAC output while in alarm.

To clear the permanently latched overload condition, the AC must be cycled and the battery momentarily disconnected, or just press SW2 (microprocessor reset) on the Control circuit board.

5.2 Controlling and Silencing Four NACs

In this application, the power supply has been set as a master with synchronized, silenceable outputs (see SW1 switch settings in following illustration). The four NAC (Notification Appliance Circuits) output circuits can be silenced in the sync generation mode by removing alarm input from Signal Input 2. This can be accomplished using two addressable modules as illustrated in Figure 5.2.

The FACP must be capable of a visual annunciation to the silencing status of the output or zone(s) to which the HPFF unit(s) are connected. The addressable modules are shown to demonstrate the use of a remotely mounted device associated with an addressable fire alarm control panel. The module could be replaced with any circuit capable of polarity reversal, such as an FACP NAC.

Two independent inputs are required for silencing. Two separate addressable modules can be used as shown in Figure 5.2, mounted on the control board (one on the other) or in a separate UL-Listed panel. Alternately, two outputs of a six-output addressable module can also be used and mounted on the Control board (see Section 5.3, “Split Alarm and Selective Silence”).

The Split Alarm mode shows the versatility of the HPFF. A combination of coded signals can be generated by or passed-through to the NAC output circuit pairs of 1&2 and 3&4.

In this application, the power supply has been the configured for Split Alarm mode. Control Input #1 (TB3, Terminals 3 & 4) is connected to an addressable control module which will control power supply output circuits 1 & 2. Control Input #2 (TB3, Terminals 7 & 8) is connected to an addressable relay module which controls output circuits 3 & 4.

If the programming DIP switches are set as shown below the power supply is set as a Sync Generator with two synchronized (System Sensor protocol) and two non-synchronized outputs.

5.4 Connecting Multiple Units

Two or more HPFF12 and/or HPFF8 units can be connected to each other to provide additional NAC extenders for a system; see wiring in Figures 5.5–5.10 and in the HPFF8 manual PN 53499. Maintain separation of power-limited and non-power limited wiring as discussed in Section 2.5, “Power-Limited Wiring Requirements”.

NOTE: Multiple units should not be connected in a “daisy chain” fashion. DO NOT connect a NAC output of one unit to the initiating device signal input of the next unit. The synchronization signal will not pass unimpeded through multiple units with this wiring method.

Notes for Figures 5.5–5.10:

The FACP’s NAC output must be regulated (not Full Wave Rectified [FWR]) if the HPFF is programmed for Sync Generator.

2. The number of possible units that can be interconnected depends on the current capability of the FACP output. Each HPFF12 input

HPFF12 NAC Expander — P/N 53576:B3 10/1/2018 39

draws 12.26 mA at 24 VDC.

3. The total line impedance for interconnected units cannot be such that it creates a voltage drop > 2 VDC. Zline total =2V/(1 Unit + 1 ELR) Example: Zline total = 2V/(12.26 mA + (24-2)/4.7K) =118.1 ohms

Section 6: Power Supply Requirements

6.1 Overview

This section contains instructions and tables for calculating power supply currents in standby and alarm conditions. This is a four step process, consisting of the following:

1. Calculating the total amount of AC branch circuit current required to operate the system

2. Calculating the power supply load current for non-alarm and alarm conditions and calculating the secondary (battery) load

3. Calculating the size of the batteries required to support the system if an AC loss occurs

4. Selecting the proper batteries for your system.

This section also contains related calculations for NAC circuits; see Section 6.5, “NAC Circuit Loop Wiring Requirements”.

6.2 Calculating the AC Branch Circuit Current

The power supply requires connection to a separate, dedicated AC branch circuit, which must be labeled FIRE ALARM. This branch circuit must be connected to the line side of the main power feed of the protected premises. No other non-fire alarm equipment may be powered from the fire alarm branch circuit. The branch circuit wire must run continuously, without any disconnect devices, from the power source to the power supply. Overcurrent protection for this circuit must comply with Article 760 of the National Electrical codes as well as local codes. Use 14 AWG (2.08 mm²) wire with 600 volt insulation for this branch circuit.

Use Table 6.1 to determine the total amount of current, in AC amperes, that must be supplied to the system.

Table 6.1 120/240 VAC Branch Circuit Requirements

6.3 Calculating the System Current Draw

6.3.1 Overview

The power supply must be able to power all internal and external devices continuously during the non-alarm condition. To calculate the non-alarm condition load on the power supply when primary power is applied, use the Calculation Column 1 in Table 6.4. The power supply must support a larger load current during an alarm condition. To calculate the fire alarm load on the power supply, use the Calculation Column 2 in Table 6.4. The secondary power source (batteries) must be able to power the system during primary power loss. To calculate the non-alarm condition load on the power supply when primary power is applied, use the Calculation Column 3 in Table 6.4.

When calculating current draw and the battery size, note the following:

• Primary refers to the main AC power source for the power supply.

• Secondary refers to the Power supply's backup batteries.

• All currents are given in amperes (A). Table 6.2 shows how to convert milliamperes and microamperes to full amperes.

To convert... Multiply Example

Milliamperes (mA) to amperes (A) mA x 0.001 3 mA x 0.001 = 0.003 A

Microamperes (µA) to amperes (A) µA x 0.000001 300 µA x 0.000001 = 0.0003 A

6.3.2 How to Calculate System Current Draw

Use Table 6.4 to calculate current draw as follows:

1. Enter the quantity of devices in all three columns.

2. Enter the current draw where required. Refer to the specifications of compatible devices for their current draw.

3. Calculate the current draws for each in all columns.

4. Sum the total current for each column.

5. Copy the totals from Column 2 and Column 3 to Table 6.4. Following are the types of current that can be entered into Table 6.4 on page 43.

• Calculation Column 1 — The primary AC supply current load that the power supply must support during a non-alarm condition, with AC power applied

• Calculation Column 2 — The primary AC supply current load that the power supply must support during an alarm condition, with AC power applied

• Calculation Column 3 — The standby current drawn from the batteries in a non-alarm condition during a loss of AC

Table 6.4 contains three columns for calculating current draws. For each column, calculate and enter the total (in amperes) in the bottom row. When finished, copy the totals from Calculation Column 2 and Calculation Column 3 to Table 6.5.

Power Supply Requirements Calculating the Battery Size

6.4 Calculating the Battery Size

Use Table 6.5 to calculate the total Standby and Alarm load in amperes hours (AH). This total load determines the battery size (in AH) required to support the power supply under the loss of AC. Complete Table 6.5 as follows:

1. Enter the totals from Table 6.4, Calculation Columns 2 and 3 where shown.

2. Enter the NFPA Standby and Alarm times. Refer to “NFPA Battery Requirements.”

3. Calculate the ampere hours for Standby and Alarm conditions, then sum the Standby and Alarm ampere hours.

4. Multiply the sum by the derating factor of 1.2 to calculate the proper battery size (in AH).

5. Write the ampere-hour requirements on the Protected Premises label located inside the cabinet door.

Secondary Standby Load (total from Table 6.4 Calculation Column 3) [ ]

Primary Alarm Load (total from Table 6.4 Calculation Column 2) [ ]

Sum of Standby and Alarm Ampere Hours = AH

Multiply by the Derating Factor X 1.2

Battery Size, Total Ampere Hours Required = AH

Table 6.5 Total Secondary Power Requirements at 24 VDC

6.4.1 NFPA Battery Requirements

NFPA 72 Local and Propriety Fire Alarm Systems require 24 hours of standby power followed by 5 minutes in alarm

6.4.2 Selecting and Locating Batteries

Select batteries that meet or exceed the total ampere hours calculated in Table 6.5. The power supply can charge 7 AH to 26 AH batteries.

The standard HPFF wall cabinet is capable of housing batteries up to 18 AH. Larger capacity batteries can be used if they are housed in an external UL-Listed enclosure, along with a UL-Listed battery charger with sufficient capacity to restore the full charge to the batteries in the required time. To use an external battery charger, remove the control board’s jumper at J1 CHARGER DISABLE and connect an external battery to the battery terminals on the control PCB. The alternate enclosure and battery charger shall be listed for Fire Protective Signaling use.

Required Standby Time (24 or 60 hours)

X [ ] = AH

Required Alarm Time (for 5 min., enter 0.084, for 10 min., enter 0.168) X [ ] = AH

NOTE: The HPFF12 cannot be mounted in the top position of the large equipment enclosure.

6.5 NAC Circuit Loop Wiring Requirements

Make sure these requirements are met:

1. For any NAC circuit with a full load (up to 3 Amps), the total wire resistance must be less than or equal to 0.66 Ohms.

and

2. The NAC loop current draw multiplied by total wire resistance on any single NAC circuit cannot exceed 2.0 volts.

NOTE: For loads smaller than 3 Amps, use the second calculation.
