 If you require tools such as a ladder, these must be safe and must be intended

for the work in hand.

 When starting the fire control panel ensure that unstable conditions cannot

arise.

 Ensure that all points listed in the 'Testing the product operability' section below

are observed.

 You may only set controls to normal function when the product operability has

been completely tested and the system has been handed over to the customer.

Testing the product operability

 Prevent the remote transmission from triggering erroneously.  If testing building installations or activating devices from third-party companies,

you must collaborate with the people appointed.

 The activation of fire control installations for test purposes must not cause

injury to anyone or damage to the building installations. The following instructions must be observed:

– Use the correct potential for activation; this is generally the potential of the

building installation. – Only check controls up to the interface (relay with blocking option). – Make sure that only the controls to be tested are activated.

 Inform people before testing the alarm devices and allow for possible panic

responses.

 Inform people about any noise or mist which may be produced.  Before testing the remote transmission, inform the corresponding alarm and

fault signal receiving stations.

Modifications to the system design and the products

Modifications to the system and to individual products may lead to faults, malfunctioning and safety risks. Written confirmation must be obtained from Siemens and the corresponding safety bodies for modifications or additions.

Modules and spare parts

 Components and spare parts must comply with the technical specifications

defined by Siemens. Only use products specified or recommended by Siemens.

 Only use fuses with the specified fuse characteristics.  Wrong battery types and improper battery changing lead to a risk of explosion.

Only use the same battery type or an equivalent battery type recommended by Siemens.

 Batteries must be disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner. Observe

national guidelines and regulations.

Disregard of the safety regulations

Before they are delivered, Siemens products are tested to ensure they function correctly when used properly.

Overview

3 Structure and function

3.1 Overview

Aspirating smoke detectors are used for early detection of smoke-generating fires in rooms and equipment. They are especially suited to applications in which point detectors are pushed to their limits, cannot be used or can only be used with restrictions.

The aspirating smoke detector continually takes air from the monitored room using a connected pipe system with defined aspirating holes. The air is supplied to the detection chamber and is analyzed for smoke particles using the detector installed there. The sensitivity of the detector can be adjusted.

The position and size of the aspirating holes are calculated with the 'FXS2055 ASD Asyst Tool' software. The calculation ensures that the air passes from the aspirating hole to the detector in the time specified and with the required calculated sensitivity.

Examples of application

 Cavities such as false ceilings or false floors  Rooms with polluted air, in which the pollution has impaired the performance of

optical point detectors

 Clean rooms  Rooms the height of which is greater than that permitted for point detectors  Rooms with electromagnetic fields which influence the function of point

detectors

 Large rooms up to 800 m²  Separate monitoring of control cabinets and electronics cabinets  Data centers  Telecommunication centers  Mounting lines  Cable tunnels  Conveyor belts

4.2 Operating modes

Three different modes can be set.

'Automatic: switches between blue and blue-red based on ratio'

This mode is suitable for standard use. The sensitivity to small smoke particles is high and dust suppression is normal. The particle size is taken into account. This reduces the likelihood of a false alarm.

'Robust'

This mode is suitable for use in dirty rooms where there is a high dust load. The sensitivity to small smoke particles is lower, but this results in a higher level of dust suppression. This makes use possible in a dirty environment or in changing ambient conditions.

'Ultra sense: always blue'

This mode is suitable for use in clean rooms where there is a low dust load. The sensitivity to small smoke particles is very high and dust suppression is low. As a result, the detector is very sensitive even to minor changes relating to smoke or dust in the intake air.

Parameter sets can be used to make further settings with a view to fine-tuning the product for the installed pipe system. When making your selection, take the following into account:

 Ambient conditions  Place of installation  Usage conditions  Alarm delay  In the FDnet/C-NET, the operating mode and parameter sets can be configured

from the fire control panel.

 To determine suitable parameters, use the recommendations from the

Power supply

4.3 Power supply

The normal status and the alarm status must be taken into account when dimensioning the power supply. When the normal status applies, the power supply must provide the quiescent current for the smoke aspiration systems and ensure that the emergency batteries are charged in accordance with VDE 0883, Part 1. When the alarm status applies, additional power is required. Take this into account when dimensioning the batteries. The batteries must be designed to support a bridging time of 24 hours in the normal status and 1 hour in the alarm status.

You will find details of the aspirating smoke detector's current consumption in chapter 'Technical data for FDA241, FDA221 [➙ 105]'.

Line calculation

The maximum length of the line is calculated on the basis of the permissible voltage drop on the supply line. The permissible voltage drop is the difference between the final voltage of the batteries (21.5 V) and the lower operating voltage limit of the smoke aspiration systems.

= Maximum length of line in [m]

Determining the batteries

4.4 Determining the batteries

WARNING

Switching batteries in parallel

● If you need more power, you must use batteries with a higher capacity.

If the aspirating smoke detector's power supply via the external power unit fails, power is supplied via batteries.

Determining the required battery type

The battery capacity depends on the following conditions:

 Buffer time required  Battery age  Country-specific specifications, as regulated in local regulations or European

provisions

 The required battery capacity can be identified using the following calculations:

= Battery capacity

Batter y

= Factor for the battery age

= Buffer time

Standby

= Internal current of the power supply unit

PSU

= Alarm time

Alarm

 To achieve the system voltage of DC 24 V, two batteries must be connected in

series.

 The buffer times specified in the table apply in the case of an operating

temperature within the range -5…45 °C.

 The batteries are charged using the external power unit. The charging current

for the batteries depends on the battery capacity. You should therefore select your external power unit to match the batteries' capacity.

Risk of explosion and fire

● Never connect batteries in parallel!

4.6 Environmental influences

Always ensure that the blowing-out unit used for blowing out is suitable.

If the devices are used in industrial applications, consultation with the project manager is required, since plastics do not withstand certain environmental conditions.

The following factors must be taken into consideration:

 Chemicals  Temperature  Moisture  Fluctuations in air pressure, e.g. in well aerated rooms

4.7 Blowing-out unit

Deposits at the aspirating holes affect air aspiration and have the potential to trigger an alarm. The pipe system should be blown out to purge it. To do this, compressed air is introduced into the pipe system. The compressed air clears deposits from the aspirating holes and capillary tubes. The aspirating smoke detector features an output for the purpose of controlling a blowing-out unit.

Find out about any local regulations.

Blowing out unit requirements

 The blowing-out unit must be approved in accordance with local regulations.  The aspirating smoke detector must not be subject to pressure.

– No compressed air is permitted to enter the aspirating smoke detector

during blowing out. – The blowing-out unit must feature suitable valves. – For blowing out purposes, it must be possible to disconnect the pipe

system from the aspirating smoke detector.

 Once blowing out has been performed, it must be possible to reconnect the

pipe system to the aspirating smoke detector.

Testing the airflow

7.5 Testing the airflow

Display

Designation

Function

At the time of commissioning, the airflow through the aspirating smoke detector is measured and this value is saved (normalization [➙ 90]). During operation, the aspirating smoke detector measures the current airflow continually. The current measured value is compared with the saved measured value and any deviations are indicated on the airflow indicator.

If the current value matches the standard value, the central LED lights up green. In the event of deviations, the LED moves up (higher airflow) or down (lower

airflow). When the topmost or bottommost LED is reached, it starts to flash once the alarm delay time has expired.

a) LED yellow

b) LED green

c) LED yellow

If a yellow LED lights up, the airflow has increased.

 As the deviation increases, th e light moves upwards.

If the topmost LED flashes, the airf low has exceeded the upper limit an d the a larm de lay time has expired.

One of the green LEDs lights up.

The airflow is normal.

If a yellow LED lights up, the airflow is too low.

 As the deviation increases, the indicator moves downwards.

If the bottommost LED flashes, the airflow has fallen below the lower limit and the alarm delay time has expired.

The 'FXS2051 ASD Configuration Tool' software can be used among other things

to display the current airflow in [l/min]/[cfm]. The values displayed can provide

information about faults. Possible causes of an airflow fault are leaks or blockages in the pipe system.

Possible types of leak:

 Cracks in the pipe  Loose connections

Possible types of blockage:

 Particles at the aspirating hole  Deposits in the pipe  Condensation water  Ice

The response time is the time it takes for the smoke indicator to respond after smoke enters an aspirating hole [➙ 24].

The 'FXS2051 ASD Configuration Tool' software can be used to set the alarm delay and the tolerance for airflow deviations.

 A smoke stick/aerosol spray is available.

 The fire detection system has been switched to maintenance mode.

1. Move the smoke/aerosol toward the aspirating hole at the end of the pipe system.

2. Measure the response time (the time it takes for the smoke detector on the aspirating smoke detector to change).

3. Compare the measured response time with the amount of time you know it should take for the detector to respond.

– On initial installation, compare the response time with the response time

calculated by the 'FXS2055 ASD Asyst Tool' software. For details, see document A6V10340094.

– In the case of subsequent measurements, compare the response time with

the response time that was measured after successful normalization as part of first commissioning.

 If the measured response time deviates by more than 15 %, the pipe system

must be checked.

 To check the pipe system, proceed as follows:

– All aspirating holes must be clear.

– The pipe system must not be blocked.

– All pipe connections must be tight.

– The pipe system must not have any cracks or fractures in it.

The duration of normalization can be configured with the 'FXS2051 ASD

The 'Normalize Flow' and 'Normalize Smoke' buttons can only be actuated using

During normalization, the aspirating smoke detector is set to the prevailing usage and ambient conditions. This setting cannot be made during detector production.

Example: The ambient conditions prevailing in the industrial zone of a large city where there is a lot of air pollution will be very different from those found in a climatic spa town.

During normalization, current airflow values or smoke values are determined over a long period of time. The values are permanently averaged and saved as zero reference. If the housing cover is closed, the aspirating smoke detector is still fully capable of alarms during normalization.

8 Maintenance / Repair

8.1 Visual inspection

Check the following:

 Assuming the pipe system is freely accessible, check it is securely attached

and free of damage.

 The aspirating holes of the pipe system are clear.  The intake pipe and connecting cables are securely connected.  The device retainer (if present) has been correctly secured.  The smoke aspiration system is free of damage. See also 'Fault indication

[➙ 109]'.

8.2 Checking the pipe system

In areas that are prone to dust particles or freezing, check whether the aspirating holes of the pipe system are blocked. Blow out the pipe system and the aspirating holes (using compressed air, if necessary). To do this, use a portable compressed air cylinder (blowing-out equipment) or a permanently installed manual blowing-out system.

8.3 Status queries with service devices

If the aspirating smoke detector is connected to the FDnet/C-NET detector line via communication transponder FDCC221S, line tester FDUL221 can be used.

You will find a detailed description of line tester FDUL221 in document 008250. The aspirating smoke detector can communicate directly with detector exchanger

and tester FDUD292 or intelligent detector tester FDUD293 via the MC link interface on the communication transponder.

You will find a detailed description of these test devices in documents 007227 and

009718. All the relevant settings can be made with the 'FXS2051 ASD Configuration Tool'

software. The PC communicates with the aspirating smoke detector. For more information, please refer to document A6V10332759.

8.6 Cleaning

Use a damp cloth to clean the housing. Do not use chemical cleaning agents.

8.7 Carrying out water trap maintenance

The procedure for draining the water trap varies according to the design. Observe the following information:

 Check the water level regularly. Base the maintenance interval on the usage

conditions to ensure compliance with the mandatory minimum distance (> 300 mm) between the surface of the water and the airflow.

 Condensation water must never be allowed to enter the airflow. Therefore, you

should switch off the aspirating smoke detector before carrying out drainage or should close the connection between the condensation water and the airflow while carrying out the procedure.

 If an open connection to the pipe system occurs during drainage, the aspirating

smoke detector will interpret the open connection as a fault. In this case, switch off the aspirating smoke detector while draining the water.

 An error message on the aspirating smoke detector can be avoided if the

connection only remains open very briefly (<2 seconds).
