The domestic alarm control and fire alarm device Quartz is produced at the Siberian Arsenal Combine. The device is a simple and reliable device that, in aggregation with various sensors, provides signals to a centralized console in case of violation of a guarded control zone or the appearance of a fire source. The product interacts with addressless indicators of several varieties.
Field of operation
The Quartz security and fire alarm control panel guarantees coverage of one security zone. The device performs the functions of an exclusively receiving alarm unit. The product can work in standalone mode, broadcasting alarm messages to light and sound transponders.
The system also interacts with the monitoring station (central monitoring point), signaling a fire or violation of the boundary of the security compartment by transforming the contacts at the output. The last elements are open-collector or “dry” configuration. The device is used in heated buildings for any purpose, has a continuous operation mode. The unit is not intended for work in the areas of the mining and petrochemical industries, flour mills.
Structural nuances
The reception and control security and fire device "Quartz", the diagram of which is given below, is equipped with a plastic case, mounted on a wall. On the back cover of the device there are holes for fastening, as well as perforated elements. If necessary, the last parts are removed, used to output the network connection, indicator conductors and light-sound signaling devices.
In the control line of the device in question, a consistent nominal resistance of 7500 Ohms is introduced. On a piece of fiberglass are all electronic components and screw blocks for connecting pulses at the input and output of sensors, signaling devices, a key reader TM. On the same sheet is a fuse of a self-healing type to protect against excessive loads in the household network, as well as a tamper, indicating a violation of the integrity of the housing of the device.
Functional
The security device "Quartz" operates in several modes. The device is transferred from one program to another state (during a fire alarm) using a special TM key (Touch Memory). If a malfunction is detected in the system, the relay contact of the monitoring station-2 opens, if a fire is noted, the monitoring station-1 is activated.
In the first case, a sound siren reproduces monotonous continuous sounds. In the second option - playback goes with small pauses. When the monitoring station-1 (central security guard 1) is triggered, the personnel are given two minutes to make sure that the system resumes and leave the building. No more than ten seconds are allocated for entry and removal from control.
In the range of the monitoring station-2, the alarm signal is broadcast in two directions. Departmental security provides for the location of the TM key from the outside of the controlled object. The remaining modes assume the system is triggered, as in the first two versions.
Features
If the reception and control fire and security device “Quartz” is in the control state, both sections of the monitoring station are in a closed position. When the device is removed, the second monitoring station is disconnected, and in the case of an alarm signal, the monitoring station-1 contacts open. In ten seconds, the message is transmitted on the first line if there is a maximum discharge of the battery.
Reactivation of the control mode during deactivation of the siren and the transition of the loop to the normal state can be carried out up to five times. In the case of operation of the device in question as a fire alarm with smoke sensors, the indicator of the current consumption should be taken into account, which should not be higher than 1.5 mA.
If it is not possible to connect to a 220 V network, an alarm will activate the siren for one minute. When the battery is completely discharged, the device in automatic mode deactivates the monitoring mode. The selection of TM keys with their inclusion in the list of allowed controllers is carried out by installing “jumpers” on the gap. After touching the port key, its information is entered, which is confirmed by turning off all sensors.
main parameters
The Quartz fire device has four operating ranges: removal of control, its setting, alarm, coordination of the list of keys. Under the control of the device there is one loop, and the displayed messages can have one of the following configurations:
- "Norms";
- "Unsuccessful.";
- "anxiety";
- "fire";
- "reserve";
- "nutrition";
- “Opened”;
- "Low battery".
The line is controlled by measuring resistance. If the output indicator is within 3-4.5 kOhm, this is considered the norm. An alarm is given when leaving a range of 2-5 kOhm. The device does not respond to interruptions in the loop if the oscillations did not exceed 50 ms.
Below are a few more important features:
- The performance of the device is relevant when the resistance of the section is less than 220 Ohms and a similar indicator on insulation of more than 50 kOhm.
- When operating the security indicators, for correct operation, a linear resistance of less than 470 Ohms is required, and insulation - more than 20 kOhms.
- The range of operating temperatures is from -30 to +50 degrees, with humidity not more than 93%.
- The nominal service life is 10 years with an MTBF of up to 40 thousand hours.
- Overall dimensions - 15 / 18.5 / 7.0 cm.
- Weight - 2.0 kg.
- Warranty from the manufacturer - 36 months.
Connection of the Quartz security control panel
The specified device at the serviced object should be mounted in a secluded place that is protected from weather disasters and the actions of intruders. In addition, the rule of eliminating the possibility of accidental damage must be observed. Typically, a TM (key reader) is installed at the entrance to a building or premises. All tie lines and supply lines are wired according to the connection diagram using recommended wires.
When installing the battery, observe the polarity. When deactivating the device for a long period, disconnect the wire from the plus of the battery. To set the mode of use, the device is removed from the panel, using the "jumpers" to determine the desired configuration.
At the final stage, they check the quality of installation, begin testing the reception and control security and fire device "Quartz" from a 220 volt network. All steps are described step by step in the instruction manual, which is supplied with the package. After the initial tests, the ability to work offline from the battery is checked. At the finish, they check the operation of the device in conjunction with the central monitoring console.
Recommendations
The instructions for the Quartz security and fire alarm control panel indicate that the connection of external consumers will require removal of the back cover. Setting the desired operating mode is ensured by shorting the jumpers with a special connector located on the working board.
Before putting the unit into operation, it is necessary to check the fuse integrity and rated compliance (FU1-0.5 A). The same procedure is carried out after each repair of the device. Do not use breakers that are not listed in the attached documentation.
Warranty period
For the warranty period, the manufacturer undertakes to perform a number of works at its discretion. This includes setting up or replacing a broken device for free. On a model with mechanical deformation or other signs of operational disruption, service is not provided. The warranty period is calculated from the date of purchase or installation of the device.
