DESCRIPTION

DETECT-A-FIRE® detectors are the “heart” of many fire protection systems. These highly reliable devices have been the standard for over 65 years. Thousands of these detectors are in use controlling the release of extinguishants such as clean agents, CO2, water, or dry chemicals. In some systems the device is used as an ALARM device, to sense overheat or fire and alert personnel.

DETECT-A-FIRE detectors have met with wide acceptance because they are designed with RATE COMPENSATION. This provides a unique advantage over both fixed temperature and rate-of-rise types of detectors because only the DETECT-A-FIRE detector accurately senses the surrounding air temperature regardless of the fire growth rate. At precisely the pre-determined danger point, the system is activated.

Fixed temperature detectors must be completely heated to alarm temperature and therefore a lag in response time may occur with a fast rate fire. Rate-of-rise devices, on the other hand, are triggered by the rate of increase in ambient temperature and are subject to false alarms caused by harmless, transient thermal gradients such as the rush of warm air from process ovens.

The key to the unit’s sensitivity is in the design (Figure 1). The outer shell is made of a rapidly expanding alloy which closely follows changes in surrounding air temperature. The inner struts are made of a slower expanding alloy. Designed to resist thermal energy absorption and sealed inside the shell, the struts follow temperature changes more slowly.

A slow rate fire (Figure 2) will heat the shell and struts together. At the “set point”, the unit will trigger, actuating the alarm or releasing the extinguishant.

A transient rush of warm air up to 40°F/min. may expand the shell, but not enough to trigger the unit. By ignoring transient warm air excursions, the DETECT-A-FIRE detector virtually eliminates false alarms prevalent with rate-of-rise devices.

If a fast rate fire (Figure 3) starts, the shell will expand rapidly. The struts will close, actuating the alarm and/or releasing the agent. The faster the fire rate of growth, the sooner the DETECT-A-FIRE detector will react.

VERTICAL DETECT-A-FIRE DETECTOR SPECIFICATIONS

Vertical DETECT-A-FIRE detectors are designed for use in both “ordinary” or “hazardous” locations. For “ordinary” use, they may be mounted to any approved junction box with 7/8” diameter opening by using 1/2-14 NPT mounting nuts. The device may be wired in or out of conduit, depending on local preferences and codes. To facilitate supervision of system wiring, four lead wires are provided on normally open vertical units (that close on temperature rise). When mounted in a suitable enclosure, detectors are Underwriters Laboratory and Underwriters Laboratory of Canada listed, and Factory Mutual approved for hazardous locations.

HORIZONTAL DETECT-A-FIRE DETECTOR SPECIFICATIONS

Horizontal DETECT-A-FIRE detectors are designed for locations where appearance is a factor. The low-profile, functional design lends physical protection of the unit while making it suitable for commercial, industrial, mercantile public buildings, institutions, and marine applications in non-hazardous locations (those classified as “ordinary” under the National Electric Code). Flush mounted units are designed to fit standard 4-inch octagonal electric boxes and surface mounting units are designed to mount directly on ceilings or on 4-inch electrical junction boxes. Canadian Electrical Codes requires mounting only to an electrical junction box.

SGX-32 Series

Explosion Proof

Manual Pull Stations

Description

Operation

The SGX-32 Series is a cast aluminum manual alarm pull station available in either single or dual action configurations. These explosion proof stations have a DPDT switch mounted in heavy duty cast aluminum housings, complete with screw terminals that accept #22 to 12AWG field wiring.

The solid design and rugged construction of the SGX-32 station makes it ideal for use in harsh operating environments and hazardous locations.

The SGX-32 series of manual stations is UL and FM listed for use in the various classifications of hazardous environments shown in the specification table. These devices have a NEMA type 4X rating for operation in extreme weather conditions and plant washdown applications. They are also UL Marine listed for operation in highly corrosive environments.

The SGX-32 series is available in red, yellow, green and blue for use in fire, hazmat, medical and weather applications. Please consult the factory for additional colors and other applications. Colored adhesive lables are available for non-fire applications. These labels are affixed on the front of the station to indicate the particular application. Refer to the table on the back for a description of the available adhesive labels.

The SGX-32SK2 single action station is operated by pulling the handle marked “PULL” on the front of the station as far down as it will go. At that point, the station will lock in place and is easily visible from up to 50 feet. The SGX-32SK1 dual action model features a “PUSH” bar that moves inward, allowing the “PULL” handle to be grasped and operated by a single hand. The activated station is reset by opening the station with a key, placing the handle in the normal upright position, and re-locking the station.

IMPORTANT NOTICE

when used on fire systems, Universal Stopper is intended for areas where the incidence of false fire alarms from manual pull stations is high or has proven to be a serious problem. Any disadvantage of the device is more than balanced when one considers the consequences of false fire alarms, especially if fire service personnel and equipment are responding to a false fire alarm when they are needed for a real fire somewhere else. Add to this the disruption to the facility when false alarms occur. If you have, or may have, a problem with false fire alarms or physical/weather damage to your fire alarm activation devices, the Universal Stopper could prove invaluable.

2. Engine-driven Generator If an engine-driven generator dedicated to the system is used as a required power source, operation of the generator shall be verified in accordance with NFPA 110, Standard for Emergency and Standby Power Systems, by the building owner.

3. Secondary (Standby) Power Supply All primary (main) power supplies shall be disconnected, and the occurrence of required trouble indication for loss of primary power shall be verified. The system’s standby and alarm current demand shall be measured or verified, and, using manufacturer’s data, the ability of batteries to meet standby and alarm requirements shall be verified.

General alarm systems shall be operated for a minimum of 5 minutes, and emergency voice communications systems for a minimum of 15 minutes. Primary (main) power supply shall be reconnected at end of test.

www.alarmcontrol.com

4. Uninterrupted Power Supply (UPS) If a UPS system dedicated to the system is used as a required power source, operation of the UPS system shall be verified by the building owner in accordance with NFPA 111, Standard on Stored Electrical Energy Emergency and Standby Power Systems.

5. Batteries (General Tests) Prior to conducting any battery testing, the person conducting the test shall ensure that all system software stored in volatile memory is protected from loss.

a. Visual Inspection Batteries shall be inspected for corrosion or leakage.

Tightness of connections shall be checked and ensured. If necessary, battery terminals or connections shall be cleaned and coated. Electrolyte level in lead-acid batteries shall be visually inspected.

b. Battery Replacement Batteries shall be replaced in accordance with the recommendations of the alarm equipment manufacturer or when the recharged battery voltage or current falls below the manufacturer's recommendations.

c. Charger Test Operation of battery charger shall be checked in accordance with charger test for the specific type of battery.

d. Discharge Test With the battery charger disconnected, the batteries shall be load tested following the manufacturer’s recommendations. The voltage level shall not fall below the levels specified.

Exception: An artificial load equal to the full fire alarm load connected to the battery shall be permitted to be used in conducting this test.

e. Load Voltage Test With the battery charger disconnected, the terminal voltage shall be measured while supplying the maximum load required by its application. The voltage level shall not fall below the levels specified for the spec type of battery. If the voltage falls below the level specified, corrective action shall be taken and the batteries shall be retested.

Exception: An artificial load equal to the full fire alarm load connected to the battery shall be permitted to be used in conducting this test.

6. Battery Tests (Specific Types)

a. Primary battery load voltage test The maximum load for a No. 6 primary battery shall not be more than 2 amperes per cell. An individual (1.5 volt) cell shall be replaced when a load of 1 ohm reduces the voltage below 1 volt. A 6-volt assembly shall be replaced when a test load of 4 ohms reduces the voltage below 4 volts.

b. Lead-acid type

1. Charger test With the batteries fully charged and connected to the charger, the voltage across the batteries shall be measured with a voltmeter. The voltage shall be

2.30 volts per cell +/-0.02 volts at 77°F (25°C) or as specified by the equipment manufacturer.

2. Load voltage test Under load, the battery shall not fall below 2.05 volts per cell.

3. Specific gravity The specific gravity of the liquid in the pilot cell or all of the cells shall be measured as required. The specific gravity shall be within the range specified by the manufacturer. Although the specified specific www.alarmcontrol.com gravity varies from manufacturer to manufacturer, a range of 1.205-1.220 is typical for regular lead-acid batteries, while 1.240-1.260 is typical for high-performance batteries. A hydrometer that shows only a pass or fail condition of the battery and does not indicate the specific gravity shall not be used because such a reading does not give a true indication of the battery condition.

c. Nickel-cadmium type

1. Charger test With the batteries fully charged and connected to the charger, an ampere meter shall be placed in series with the battery under charge. The charging current shall be in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations for the type of battery used.

In the absence of specific information, 1/25 of the battery rating shall be used.

2. Load voltage test Under load, the float voltage for the entire battery shall be 1.42 volts per cell, nominal. If possible, cells shall be measured individually.

d. Sealed lead-acid type

1. Charger test With the batteries fully charged and connected to the charger, the voltage across the batteries shall be measured with a voltmeter. The voltage shall be

2.30 volts per cell +/-0.02 volts at 77°F (25°C) or as specified be the equipment manufacturer.
