DETECTOR USE IN HAZARDOUS AREAS

The PM-5MPX is FM Approved to FM 3260: 2000,

intrinsically safe for use in Class I, II, III, Division 1,

Groups C, D, E, F & G hazardous (classified) locations;

non-incendive for use in Class I, Division 2 Groups A, B,

C & D locations and suitable for use in Class II/III Division

2, Groups F & G. This Approval depends on proper

installation and choice of components, which are

described in this installation manual. See the following

sections and Control Drawing Configuration (Appendix B)

for installation instructions and component selection

criteria.

ELECTRICAL CHARACTERISTICS

The PM-5MPX is designed to interface to any NFPA type

fire alarm control panel. A normally open solid-state relay

is provided for an alarm signal. The relay closes for a

minimum of five and a maximum of 15 seconds when a

fire is detected and is automatically reset after a fire. An

internal supervision solid-state relay closes when the

detector powers up and opens if a detector fault (such as

loss of power or low power supply voltage) occurs. In

NFPA 72, Class A or B circuits (see Appendix C, D and

E), such a fault condition is indicated at the control panel

as a trouble signal. A blinking red LED on the front of the

housing indicates the following:
1 Hz rate =

Normal operation

3-4 Hz rate = Alarm condition.

operAting voltAge—

9 to 30 Vdc at the detector (observe polarity), including

line drops and ripple.

NOTE

Detector output is not guaranteed below 9 Vdc.
The status LED and relay will reflect this condition.

poWer consumption—

10 milliamps maximum at +30 Vdc.

AlArm output—

Solid-state alarm relay is non-latching. Contacts close for

5 to 15 seconds.

trouble output—

Opening of normally closed solid-state relay.

soliD-stAte relAy rAtings—

100 mA at 30 Vdc; 30 ohms.

stAbilizAtion time—

Maximum 0.5 second after power up.

response time—

1 second maximum.

Wiring hArness—

Identification:

See Table 1.

Length:

50 feet (15.24 m).

Diameter:

0.3 inches (7.62 mm).

Individual Wires: 20 AWG, stranded.
