3.1 Prerequisites for Installation

CAUTION!
Depending on type of installation, the fire detection system must be installed by
trained personnel according to applicable industrial, maritime, offshore or rolling
stock requirements.
CAUTION!
It is highly important to eliminate or reduce any high external electromagnetic
interference which can have a negative effect on the loop communication.
Make sure that cabling is carried out according to local rules and regulations.
CAUTION!
All cables used during installation of the fire detection system should comply with
the FSS Code and be flame retardant.
CAUTION!
Always use halogen free cables for loop lines and connections to external systems.
The different parts of the system, the control and system modules, should first be
mechanically installed. The different loop units are thereafter electrically installed
and set up according to the definition of the loops and drawings.
The cables must be tested separately before the loops are connected to the loop
module. This eliminates any problem with the cable and electrical installation of
the loop units.
CAUTION!
Do not remove the protective cover from the detector until all paint work and
polluting (dusty) activities are finished and the area has been cleaned.
After installation: Be sure to remove all covers before the fire detection system is put
into operation.
3.2 Mechanical Installation

3.2.1 Recommended installation order
Install the control panel and central cabinet according to their drawings. The
Control Panel M 4.3 can be delivered in two ways - installed in the Fire detection
cabinet or as a separate unit. Separate drawings are delivered with the system.
3.2.2 Control Panels

CAUTION!
Ensure that the fire detection system is installed in a location that satisfies its
environmental requirements as stipulated in the project drawings.
The external control panels are delivered in cabinets for wall or console mounting.
Separate drawings are delivered with the system. Install the panels indoors in areas

3 Installation Installation Manual
in 0–80 % RH non-condensing conditions and within a temperature range of 0 ºC

to 50 ºC.
3.2.3 Loop Units

CAUTION!
Ensure that all loop units are installed in locations that satisfy the environmental
requirements.
A loop unit can be connected to a loop or to a conventional zone.
The mechanical installation of the different types of loop and zone units are
described in their respective data sheets.
3.2.4 Mounting of Modules on a DIN rail

Mount the module horizontally on a 35 mm DIN rail.
• Mount one module support on each side.

• Squeeze the whole package together and tighten the screws on the supports.
3.3 Electrical Installation

3.3.1 Cable requirements
Backbone Bus External (BBE)
The cables connecting from the backbone bus to the control panels or stretched
central part must meet the following requirements:
Channel 1 & 2
• Min 2 x 2 x 0.3 mm2, twisted pair shielded
(RS-485 + backup signal, one conductor)
NOTE!
The backup signal is only needed for one channel.
• Star networks are not permitted

• Max 700 m cable in one communications segment
• Two-wire connection shall be used when nodes have a common ground (-)
• Three-wire connection shall be used when nodes have a different ground (-),
for example between Bus Isolator M.
• Optional: Power supply (24 VDC) 1 x 2 x 0.75 mm2
Refer to the system connection drawing
NOTE!
Channel 1 and Channel 2 should be routed separately for improved safety.

Detector loops
CAUTION!
It is strongly recommended to use halogen free cables for loop lines and connections
to external systems.
Detector loop cables must meet the following minimum requirements:
Loop: Min. 2 × 0.3 mm²

Sub loop: Min. 2 × 0.3 mm²
This is the minimum cable diameter that the fire detection system can handle.
International rules and regulations must be followed with regard to cable diameter.
3.3.2 Loop Lengths

A loop or sub-loop's length depends on three parameters:
• cable type
• shielded or unshielded cable
• power consumption
A cable is considered shielded if the shielded part is more than 10% of the cable's
total length.
CAUTION!
Never exceed the recommended cable lengths as listed in table Table 2 Loop cable
lengths.
Loop units are divided into three types. These types (1, 2 and 3) are based on the
individual load on the loop.
Type 1A: Max capacity

• ACPWP-Exn
• AIN2
• AOHS-Exn
• EV-BI, EV-DP, EV-DPH, EV-H 54, EV-H 84, EV-P, EV-PH and EV-PS
• EV-MCP2

** Using min. a 0.75 mm2 cable, otherwise max. 2000 m.
*** Using min. a 0.75 mm2 cable, otherwise max. 1000 m.
Max number of units on one loop

The max number of units on one loop depends on the type of units and cable.
Please refer to Table 2 Loop cable lengths above.

NOTE!
When calculating the number of loop units, consider the future expansion of new
loop units. Make sure there are at least 10% in spare addresses evenly distributed
between zones.
For example, if using type 1A loop units:
254 addresses x 0.9 = Max. 228 loop units/loops.
NOTE!
Concerning the number of loop units in Ex areas, follow the guidelines in the control
drawing for the unit, or use the "Ex-Calculator" (Excel spreadsheet) to verify the
intrinsic safety.
CAUTION!
When using older versions of MCP-A, SCI-A, all versions of EV-SPB-BI and
EV-BI, the total number of these units, including SCI (Short Circuit Isolator) units,
are limited to 40 pcs on each loop.
CAUTION!
For loop configuration it is extremely important to follow the compatibility list. Do
not mix different types of SCI units.
Using EV-PS detector with built-in sounder

Using a combined smoke detector with a built-in sounder for a fire/general alarm
signal distribution results in an unusually high current consumption on the detector
loop when the sounders are activated. This naturally involves limitations in the
number of detectors per loop and in the cable lengths. The following examples
should be considered.
Cable Max cable Typical Max loop Max Total

twisted pair resistance cable current number of amount of
(Ω) length (m) (mA) EV-PS incl. loop units
UB-6 SCI incl. SCI
2 × 0.75 mm² 80 1500 155 30 254
2 × 0.75 mm² 83 1600 182 50 100
2 × 0.75 mm² 85 1600 205 60 60
2 × 1.5 mm² 47 1800 242 60 254
3.3.3 Detector Loops

A loop may contain different types and different numbers of loop units. (Some
limitations are explained in section Max number of units on one loop, page 10).
The connection to the loop depends on the type of loop unit and the configuration
of your system. Some of the loop units are connected directly to the loop and some
are connected through address units.
Figure 3. and Figure 4. illustrates addressable detector loops.
Figure 5. illustrates a conventional detector zone.
For more details about their connection, see Connections for Loop Units, page
73.

The information about the electrical installation of each type of loop unit is
provided in its respective data sheet.
NOTE!
• Set the address switch on each loop unit before connecting them to the loop. If
an address unit is used, set its ID switch. See Setting the Address on Loop
Units, page 14 later in this chapter and also Address List and Test Report,
page 68 and ID List, page 71.
CAUTION!
Do not remove dust protection covers from the smoke detectors until all polluting
activities (such as construction work) are finished and the area has been cleaned.
Hint!
Further information about loop units and cabling can be found in chapter Fire
Detection Installation Guidelines, page 35.
3.3.4 Loops with SCI functionality

CAUTION!
For loop configuration it is extremely important to follow Consilium document no.
6300148 "Compatibility List" covering compatibility of loop units/system.
Do not mix old types of SCI units with the new generation of SCI units (consisting
of MCP-A SCI, MCP-A WP SCI, NMI-SCI, UB-6 SCI and SPB-ADAPT SCI)
Loop units can be connected to the loop in two different set-ups:
SCI functionality in all loop units

• For passenger ships (>36 passenger onboard).
• Fitting all loop units on the single loop with units including SCIs.
Figure 3. Typical connection diagram for SCI functionality in all loop units

NOTE!
The illustrated SCI units above are polarity dependent.
SCI functionality in selected loop units

• For all other type of ships.
• In case SCIs are only partly to be installed, meaning not all bases/loop units,
ensure that maximum amount of detector heads in between each SCI does not
exceed 32 units.
Figure 4. Typical connection diagram for SCI functionality in selected loop units
NOTE!
* Maximum 32 detector heads of Type 1A/1B
The illustrated SCI units above are polarity dependent.

3.3.5 Connection to Zone Module, type I/O M 70
Figure 5. Example of a detector zone with conventional non-addressable loop units.
A zone should in any case include no more than 50 enclosed spaces.
3.3.6 Setting the Address on Loop Units

CAUTION!
Take care to set appropriate addresses for all loop units.
A fault alarm concerning a wrong loop unit address has to be dealt with promptly. A
correct address is essential to communicate alarms from the loop unit to the fire
detection system.
In order to become operational, all addressable loop units such as detectors, manual
call points, etc. that are connected to the Loop M loop module must be given an
address between 1-254.
NOTE!
Loop units located on a single physical loop must be given unique addresses.
Loop units without address switches

For addressable units without a DIP switch, the address is set with a special address
programming tool. For further instructions, see Instructions for Address
Programming Tool, page 16.
Loop units with address switches

On units with a DIP switch, the address is set using the 8 pole DIP switch located
on each addressable unit as shown in the following figure. The DIP switch values
follow the binary system.

Figure 6. DIP switch with 8 poles.
Refer to the Installation Manual Appendix for an address list.
The value of the address is set according to the switches set to ON position as
shown in the following figure:
Figure 7. Setting DIP switches.
By setting the switches numbered 1,2,3,4 and 6 to the ON position, the address is
configured as 1+2+4+8+32 = 47.
NOTE!
After setting the address, remove the label attached to the detector and use it to seal
the address switch.
Address units
In addition to the address DIP switch, address units and I/O units are equipped with
an ID DIP switch. This ID DIP switch determines the unit’s functionality.
Refer to the Installation Manual Appendix for an ID list.
Addressable indication units

The address of addressable indication units is set identical to the loop address of
the detector it shall indicate.
Addressable timers
The addressable timers are located on the detector loop in the same way as any
loop unit.
For UR-2/UR-2K type timers, three DIP switches are set as follows:
• The loop address for the timer.

• Not used.
• Not used.
The disablement interval is defined in the Configuration program.
NOTE!
Timers do not affect the function of the manual call points or heat detectors.

Short circuit isolators

The separate short circuit isolators are given a unique loop address in the same way
as the other loop units.
3.3.7 Instructions for Address Programming Tool

To set address on loop units without address switch, please use suitable address
programming tool. One example is the Evolution Address Programmer (EV-AD2)
Part no. 5200123.
Figure 8. Evolution Address Programmer (EV-AD2)
1 For detailed information, refer to the data sheet for corresponding unit.
3.3.8 Setting address and layout on Repeater M4.3
Follow this instruction to set the address and the functions of the Repeater M 4.3.
1 Power up the Repeater M4.3 panel and wait until it is operational.

2 Press and hold both arrow keys + for 5 seconds to open the Enter Access Code
menu.
3 Use the arrow keys to scroll and select the digits for the Access Code.
Confirm with the Local Mute key (= Next digit or Enter).
(Key = Previous.)

4 Proceed to choose address (according to parameters defined for the system) and layout
for the Repeater module:
1. Enter Central Address
2. Enter Module Address
3. Enter Layout (Marine or Transport)
For all menu alternatives use the arrow keys to scroll and select. Confirm with the Local
Mute key.
Follow the instructions on the lower part of the screen.
5 Reboot (power off/on) the Repeater module (it can take the module up to one minute to
restart).
Layout and functions:

• Marine
Layout “marine” gives the repeater no operational privileges except for local
mute of the buzzer and to view fire alarms, fault alarms and disablements.
• Transport
Layout “transport” gives the repeater control privileges. When the Fire or Fault
list is displayed, the “Local mute” key acts as mute and reset for the
selected/marked alarm or fault.
CAUTION!
This layout shall not be used if the Repeater is located in a
public area!
3.3.9 Group Activation of Buzzers

The purpose of the functionality Group Activation of Buzzers (connected to
detector’s remote indication output) is to give the possibility to simultaneously turn
on/off a group of buzzers with a single Cause/Effect expression.
The configuration of Group Activation of Buzzers is done in the CCP

Configuration tool as described in the 5100335 Configuration manual.
Function Description and Limitations

Automatic functions will assign detectors to a group depending on their zone
number and amount of detectors in a zone (maximum 65 detectors in a group).
Example:
Zone 1 Addresses 1-60 -> Loop x Group 1 (Addresses 1-60)

Zone 2 Addresses 61-150 -> Loop x Group 2 (Addresses 61 – 126)
->Loop x Group 3 (Addresses 127-150)
When activation of buzzers in a Zone is initiated for a first time, Loop will measure
current consumption of the groups and based on it decided if all groups of the zone
can be activated simultaneously or pulsed signal shall be used.
When MESSAGE ZONE 1 BUZZER ON/OFF is activated

Loop x Group 1 (Zone 1, Addresses 1-60) are activated if current consumption is <
190 mA
When MESSAGE ZONE 2 BUZZER ON/OFF is activated
If current consumption is < 190 mA

Loop x Group 2 and 3 (Zone 2, Addresses 61-150)
If current consumption is > 190 mA

Loop x Group 2 (Zone 2, Addresses 61-126) 1 second ON, 1 second OFF
Loop x Group 3 (Zone 2, Addresses 127-150) 1 second OFF, 1 Second ON
When MESSAGE ZONE 1 BUZZER ON/OFF and MESSAGE ZONE 2 BUZZER

ON/OFF are activated simultaneously
If current consumption is < 190 mA

Loop x Group 1, 2 and 3 (Zone 1 and 2, Addresses 1-150)
If current consumption is > 190 mA

Loop x Group 1 (Zone 2, Addresses 61-150) 1 second ON, 2 seconds OFF
NOTE!
Groups are not active simultaneously.
In order to further decrease current consumption on the loop, the number of loop
units with steady light LEDs are restricted to four.
If more than four loop units on the loop detects fire, only the first four loop units
will indicate fire with steady light LEDs and the rest will indicate fire with blinking
LEDs.
The Loop M X module remembers in which order the loop units detected fire, so if
a fire alarm in a loop unit is reset the next loop unit that detected fire will switch
from blinking light to steady light.
Summary
• The Broadcast Buzzers functionality is limited to CN- and EV-Series (not
EV-PP/XXX) of detectors, since it is the only detector type that supports
broadcasts on the loop line.
• Max 8 Groups per loop.
• Max 65 detectors per group.
• If not all groups can be activated at the same time without violating maximum
current consumption of 190 mA, as many groups as possible is turned on for 1
second, then turned off and other groups are turned on, and so on.

• An overload fault message is generated if the current consumption is above

250 mA for 30 seconds or during the same time the maximum current
consumption of the line is violate three times or more.
• If a broadcast group is causing an overload above 300 mA more than 10 times,
the group is blocked from being activated again and an overload fault message
is generated. The block for the group is removed when the fault is reset.
• The group number is registered in a detectors internal EEPROM on the Loop´s
first startup, if this fails fault code 241 ”DEVICE WRITE FAULT” is
generated.
• The number of loop units with steady light LEDs are restricted to four.
3.3.10 Electrical Installation, Central Equipment

Terminal layout
Since most systems are designed specifically for each customer, no standard for
connecting the different modules within the system exists.
Refer to Central Unit Terminal & Cabling Layout, page 77 for more information.
For other electrical installations, such as Printer and Basic Backup Signal (BBU),
refer to the specific project drawings.

4.2.2 Testing of System Parts

4.2.2.1 Prerequisites for testing
CAUTION!
A fault alarm concerning a wrong loop unit address has to be dealt with promptly. A
correct address is essential to communicate alarms from the loop unit to the central
unit.
CAUTION!
Communication problems on a loop due to high external electromagnetic
interference have to be addressed as soon as possible in order to secure the
functionality of the complete fire detection system.
It is highly important to eliminate or reduce any external interference to restore
communication on the loop.
After installation of the Fire detection system, test the different parts of the system
to assure that they function properly.
4.2.2.2 About Testing

CAUTION!
Perform visual inspection of all fire detectors as often as needed to find detectors
which have deliberately been covered (vandalised). Because a covered detector will
not be able to detect a fire and the fire detection system can't detect if a detector has
been covered.
CAUTION!
Check for contaminated detectors. Use the Control panel menu system to display a
list showing in which condition the detectors are.
For additional information about testing, please refer to the Service and
Maintenance Manual.
NOTE!

4.2.2.3 Test mode overview

The system has a special test mode function which makes the testing easier.
When a zone is in test mode:
• External alarm devices and controls are by default not activated in case of a
fire.

Hint!
This functionality can be turned off if controls are to be tested
while the tested zone is in test mode.
(Menu » 3 Disablements » 1 New Disablement » 3 External
Controls)
• The alarm level is lowered to give a quick response to detector test equipment.
• LED indicators on loop units are blinking.
• Each tested loop unit will indicate activation with a steady LED indicator.
• Key events (as well as information of system components and system
software) will be stored in the system log which can be saved on a USB
memory stick. If a printer is connected to the system, alarms will automatically
be printed as a result of the tested units.
• The units in alarm are automatically reset when the heat or smoke
concentration is under the alarm level, or when the test key is removed from
the manual call point.

4 Reconnect and restart the loop.
4.3.2 Wrong Number of Loop Units (only for

Addressable Loops on Loop M)
CAUTION!
A fault alarm concerning a wrong loop unit address has to be dealt with promptly.
A correct address is essential to communicate alarms from the loop unit to the fire
detection system.
If a limited number of loop units do not answer, the problem may depend on one of
the causes listed below.

communication” or “abnormal condition”.
4.3.3 Cable Break

CAUTION!
A loop cable break has to be located and corrected in order to secure the
functionality of the complete fire detection system.
The loop is communicating in both directions and only one cable break will
therefore not cause malfunction. But if the loop cable breaks in a second place or if a
short circuit will occur, all loop units between the two cable breaks or short circuit
will be lost.
CAUTION!
A sub-loop cable break has to be located and corrected as soon as possible in order
to secure the functionality of the complete fire detection system.
The loop units which can have a sub-loop are some types of detectors and I/O units.
NOTE!
A cable break fault cannot be reset in case a fire alarm is present on the loop.

6 Fire Detection Installation Guidelines
CAUTION!
Always refer to and act according to current local rules and regulations.
CAUTION!
Ensure that the fire detection system cabinet is installed in a location that satisfies
the environmental requirements.
6.1 Loop Units

6.1.1 General comments when installing fire detectors
This chapter provides important information for installing protective fire detection
equipment.
NOTE!
Do not start an installation unless all conceivable considerations regarding detector
location have been taken into account.
For detailed connection and installation information, refer to the data sheet for each
unit.
• Set the address on every loop unit. Also set the ID on loop units which are
equipped with an ID DIP switch.
• After the loop unit address is set, place the adhesive label over the address DIP
switch to seal it. (Only applicable for detectors equipped with DIP switch.)
• An end of line resistor shall be installed in the end of each sub-loop (if used).
The type of resistors to be used and how to install them can be found in the
project documentation or in the data sheets.
• Make sure that smoke detectors maintain their protective dust covers until
polluting activities such as construction have been completed and the area have
been cleaned.
• Mark each loop unit with zone and address number. For detectors, the
markings shall be placed on the base, not on the detector head since it might be
replaced in the future. Also keep this in mind when marking other types of
loop units. Special adhesive labels for marking are available from Consilium or
one of Consilium's representatives.
• Make sure that the IP class for each unit meets the environmental
requirements.
• Plug unused cable glands.
6.1.2 Fluorescent light sources

Due to EMI issues, the recommended minimum distance between the detector and
any part of a fluorescent light source is 0.5 m.
This limitation concerns all types of detectors.

6 Fire Detection Installation Guidelines Installation Manual
Figure 12. Minimum distance from fluorescent light source to detectors
6.1.3 Smoke detectors

• If possible, install smoke detectors in the center of a supervised area or where
smoke most likely arises.
• A smoke detector covers a maximum area of 74 m2.
• To avoid unnecessary alarms, keep smoke detectors away from showers,
saunas, ovens, and toasters.
• Do not install a smoke detector behind an air duct or near ventilation inlets,
which could delay smoke from reaching the detector. The minimum distance
for placement of a smoke detector from a ventilation inlet/outlet is 0.5 m.
• Do not install a smoke detector in areas with temperature below 5°C or where
condensation is likely.
• A smoke detector’s minimum distance from a wall or a bulkhead is 0.5 m.
Figure 13. Smoke detector locations.
• The maximum distance for a smoke detector from a wall or a bulkhead is 5.5
m. The maximum distance between two detectors is 11 m.
• Each smoke detector installed in engine room areas shall have cables that are
two (2) meters longer than needed, this to make it possible to relocate the
detector position when performing “real” smoke tests with fans etc. running.
• In cabins and in lockers, mount the detector with its LEDs facing toward the
door. (Not applicable for detectors with OmniView LED.)

6.1.4 Heat detectors

• Install a heat detector in an area’s center and where it can work reliably and
provide the best protection.
• A heat detector covers a maximum area of 37 m2.
• The alarm temperature of a heat detector shall always be at least 30 ºC above
normal temperature.
• Avoid placing the detector near heat-generating devices, such as ovens or
saunas, which could cause unwanted alarms.
• A heat detector’s minimum distance from a wall or a bulkhead is 0.5 m.
• A heat detector is installed a maximum distance of 4.5 m from a wall or a
bulkhead. The maximum distance between two heat detectors is 9 m.
• In cabins and in lockers, mount the detector with its LEDs facing towards the
door. (Not applicable for detectors with OmniView LED.)
6.1.5 Flame detectors

• Install flame detectors where flames, in the initial stage of a fire, might arise.
• Mount the detector giving it wide access to the whole area where the flames
are expected. The detector should be aimed toward the center of the detection
zone and have a completely unobstructed view of the protected area.
• Mount the detector in such a way that vibrations are avoided as much as
possible.
• Avoid shadow areas from objects in the room, by placing a second flame
detector facing the opposite side of the object, see Figure 14. An example of
flame detector mounting.
• Mount the flame detector to give it clear access to the location of the
anticipated fire. See data sheet of flame detector for more information about
cone of vision. Place the detector beside, but not directly above, the protected
object to prevent the risk that black smoke may block the flames. Place the
detector at an angle of 45° downwards. This way the detector will project both
downward and forward and catch the least amount of dirt. For more
information about its angle of projection, refer to the flame detector’s data
sheet.

Figure 14. An example of flame detector mounting
• A general rule is to install the detector on a height that is twice the height of
the highest object in the supervised area, if possible.
• Avoid sources for false alarm (e.g. flares) from entering the detector’s cone of
vision.
6.1.6 Intrinsically Safe Detector for Ex Areas

• Select the detector’s location as described under section Smoke detectors, page
36 respectively section Heat detectors, page 37.
• Detectors are connected to the fire detection loop through an isolator unit,
which must be located in a safe area directly outside of the protected Ex area.
Install the smoke detector so it becomes easily accessible for service and
maintenance.
Figure 15. Example of IS circuit with addressable detectors.

Figure 16. Example of IS circuit with conventional detectors.
CAUTION!
Depending on the number of IS isolators and Ex loop detectors that are to be
installed, the number and placement of short circuit isolators (SCIs) could be of
great importance.
Short Circuit Isolator, page 40.
Information on how the circuit installation shall be made in order to comply with
the ATEX directive is found in the control drawing for the detector type. Available
is also the "Ex-Calculator" (Excel spreadsheet) which can be used to verify the
intrinsic safety of a circuit with regard to the number and type of units, cable
length, and gas group. Contact your local supplier.
6.1.7 Conventional High Temperature Heat Detectors

• Saunas generally have ceiling-installed detectors.
• Install a heat detector in center of the ceiling and where it can work reliably
and provide the best detection of heat.
• The alarm temperature of a heat detector shall always be at least 30 ºC above
normal attainable temperature.
• Connect the detector to an address unit located outside the hot area and in an
environment suitable for it's IP class, and where it can easily be accessed for
service and maintenance. The maximum cable length between the detector and
the address unit is 25 m.
• The address should be set on the address unit and the function ID switch
should be set.
• An end-of-line resistor (SLZ-2) shall be fitted inside the detector base if the
detector is the last unit on the sub-loop.
6.1.8 Conventional Cold Room Heat Detectors

• Always select a detector that can withstand the lowest temperature used in the
cold room.

• Install a heat detector in the center of the ceiling and where it can work reliably
and provide the best detection of heat.
• A heat detector is installed a maximum distance of 4.5 m from a wall or a
bulkhead. The maximum distance between two heat detectors is 9 m.
• Connect the detector to an address unit located outside the cold area and in an
environment suitable for it's IP class, and where it can easily be accessed for
service. The maximum cable length between the detector and the address unit
is 25 m.
• The address should be set on the address unit and the function ID switch (small
DIP switch) should be set.
• An end-of-line resistor shall be fitted inside the detector base if the detector is
the last unit on the sub-loop.
6.1.9 Address Units

• The address unit is used to interface conventional detectors (or any dry closing
contact) to the addressable fire detection loop.
• In addition to the address DIP switch, the address unit has one ID switch that
has to be set. For more information, refer to ID List, page 71.
6.1.10 Manual call points

• A manual call point shall be installed at each exit at a height of 1600 mm from
deck to the centre of the call point. No part of a corridor shall be more than 20
m away from a call point. Positions where risk for impact or physical damage
is likely to occur shall be avoided.
• In special category spaces call points shall be spaced so that no part of the
space is more than 20 m away from a call point, and one shall be placed close
to each exit from such spaces.
• A test key is supplied with each call point. Save these keys for future tests.
6.1.11 Short Circuit Isolator

For loop configuration it is extremely important to follow Consilium document no.
6300148 "Compatibility List" covering compatibility of loop units/system. Do not
mix old types of SCI units with the new generation of SCI units.
• Installation shall preferably be hidden from the public but easily accessible for
service.
• The short circuit isolators must be connected with correct polarity.
In cases where SCIs are not needed in every loop unit:

• Short circuit isolators (SCIs) can be installed between each fire detection zone,
where the loop cable leaves or enters the zone. SCIs can also be installed
between decks. The location principle is to separate each fire detection zone

with an SCI. It is important to have the SCI close to where the cable changes to
a new fire detection zone.
In cases where intrinsically safe isolators are used:

• When an intrinsically safe (IS) isolator is to be used on the loop it is necessary
to install an SCI before the IS isolator.
• When having two (or more) IS isolators in series, there must be an additional
SCI between the IS isolators.
Figure 17. Example of an SCI installation in a system with two IS isolators.
• If Isolator-A is used as an intrinsically safe isolator and there are more than
five detectors on the Ex-spur, two parallel SCIs must be installed before and
after each IS isolator.
Figure 18. Example of a parallel SCI installation.

Figure 19. Connection diagram for parallel SCI connections.
NOTE!
The SCI function between the IS isolators can also be
achieved by installing a detector or other loop unit equipped
with SCI.
6.1.12 Timers
• The timer unit is used for the temporary disablement of detectors in areas
where smoke or heat can occur under normal circumstances.
• The timer should be mounted for easy access and operation and well marked
with its function.
• For UR-2 type timers:
In addition to the address DIP switch, the address interval for the detectors to
be disabled must be set on the timer’s extra DIP switches.
6.2 Alarm devices and external control

equipment
6.2.1 Bells
• Installation height is normally 0.2 m below the ceiling and max 2.2 m from the
deck or floor level.
• After installation, make sure that the gong is free from the cables, otherwise
the sound output may be reduced.
• Should be mounted with cable entrance facing downwards.

6.2.2 Electrical siren

• Make sure to programme the siren to the correct sound and intermittence using
the DIP switch inside the siren. More information about how to set the DIP
switch is found in the siren’s data sheet or in the project documentation.
• Turn the volume control to max.
• Clearly label the siren with the alarm’s category (e.g., FIRE ALARM).
6.2.3 Door Holder Magnet 65kp (650N)

• Normally used for door leaves less than 1050 mm wide.
6.2.4 Door Holder Magnet 130kp (1300N)

• Normally used for door leaves more than 1050 mm wide.
6.2.5 Door Release Switch

• This switch is normally placed on both sides of each fire door. Make sure it is
not hidden behind the door leaf when the door is in open position.
• Installation height is normally 1.8 m above deck or floor level.
6.3 Cabling and Electrical Installation

Guidelines
6.3.1 EMC requirements
Cables to be installed may be susceptible to electromagnetic interference, why
consideration must be given to their location, design, and proximity to other cables
and equipment.
Cable categories
The cables are divided into the following categories with regard to their
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC):
• A. Power supply cables:

Motor cables, AC drives(VFD), heating supply cables, cables to line filters (on
inverter side), auxiliary equipment supply cables, combustion motor starter
cables, etc.
• B. Battery cables and binary control cables
• C. Signal transmission and communication cables
NOTE!
Cables used in the Consilium fire detection systems generally belong to EMC
category C, the exception being control cables with voltage above 50 V (usually 230
V), that are rated category B.

Cable separation
To fulfill EMC requirements, cables of different categories must be separated from
each other in order to avoid capacitive or inductive interference. As an example,
loop cables installed too close and in parallel with cables connected to a switching
motor controller may affect the communication in the loop cable.
The table below shows the minimum cable separation between the different cable
categories.
Table 6. Minimum cable separation distance in air.

Category A — Category B 0.1 m / 4 in
Category A — Category C 0.2 m / 8 in
Category B — Category C 0.1 m / 4 in
NOTE!
When different types of cables cross each other at right angle (90°), other limitations
apply.
If the minimum cable distance cannot be met, each category of cables must be
provided with metallic tubes, trays, screens, or similar in order to physically
separate them from other cable categories.
The preferred location of a loop cable is in the bundles for low voltage cables (such
as for alarm, communication, measuring and navigation equipment).
Shielding of cables
Although not a requirement, shielding of the detector loop cables is recommended
in order to protect them from electromagnetic emissions. Other cables of category
C should always be shielded, whereas category A cables could optionally be
protected. However in environments with exceptionally high electromagnetic
disturbance levels we strongly suggest that shielding is done for all cable
categories.
Shielding can be done by means of a screen or a conductive metallic casing around

the cable.
Earthing of cables
The earthing of the loop cables must be adapted depending on the design of fire
detection system (see examples below). This is to ensure that no currents run
through the screen due to voltage differences between the earth points (so called
stray voltage).

Figure 20. Earth points in a loop.
Figure 21. Earth points in a spur.
Figure 22. Earth points in a stretched central system (marine SRtP applications only).
6.3.2 Cable types

NOTE!
It is strongly recommended to use halogen free cables for loop-lines and connections
to external systems.
All cables must be approved according to the applicable requirements. Refer to

section Cable requirements, page 8.
6.3.3 Cable Protective Tubes of Metal

When installing cable protective tubes – take into account that the cable easily can
be pulled through the tube and afterwards easily be changed or removed.
When installing metal cable tubes – following must be taken into account:

• If there is more than one cable in the same tube, the cross section (counted of
mutual external diameters) may be max 40% of the inner cross section of the
tube.
• If the tube is more than 10 m long, drafting holes has to be drilled.
• Tubes must be installed on support so that the background may be painted.
• Tube installation must be done by welding or by tube joints. Fastening
distances are located 100 mm from the tube end and afterwards every 1.5 m.
• Bending radius must be at least 6 times the external diameter of the tube.
• The upper tube end in open decks must be sealed up, this to prevent water from
coming in.
6.3.4 Cable Protective Tubes of Plastic

Plastic tubes will be used inside the wall linings and also in the ceiling, where
attachment directly to the supporting construction is not possible.
When installing plastic cable tubes – following must be taken into account:
• Use halogen free cable tubes.

• Bending radius must be at least six times external diameter of the tube.
• Installation must be done onto the warm side of a thermal insulation and at
least 100 mm from a hot surface, preferably below it. Piping is not allowed
inside a thermal insulation.
• The tubes are tied with galvanized wire clips. The first clip is located
approximately 100 mm from the tube end and afterwards every 1 m.
6.3.5 Cabling
When installing the cables – take into account the minimum internal bending
radius, that has nominal value of six times the external diameter of the cable.
• If two separate routes for the cables are required – all involved power supply
and communication cables must be included in each separate route according
to the drawings.
• Do not bundle low voltage cables together with power cables, they have to be
separated from each other.
• When cable bundles are mounted on trays this can be done as follows:
• On the trays along the ship – the power cables on the left side (Port-side)
and the low voltage cables on the right side (Starboard-side) of the tray.
• On the trays across the ship – the power cables to the fore side and the
low voltage cables in the stern side of the tray.
• On the fore or aft stem bulkhead trays in vertical shaft – the power cables
to the Port-side or the Starboard-side bulkhead trays, the power cables to
the fore side and the low voltage cables to the stern side of the tray.

• In cable junctions and when exiting the cable trays bridges fastening bolts have
to be used – low voltage cables for alarm, communication, navigational and
measuring equipment have to be installed in their own bundles.
• Each fire detector installed in engine room areas shall have two (2) meters
extra cables, this to make it possible to relocate the detector position when
performing “real” smoke tests with fans etc. running.
6.3.6 Cable Inlets to Equipment

When installing – the following must be taken into account.
• Wet spaces:
• Cables are entered from below or from the side.
• Let the cables enter the sealing at a right top angle (or as near a right
angle as possible).
• Dry spaces:
• The cable can enter from any direction.
No cables are to be installed below 50 mm distance from bottom of fuel oil tank,
except cables ending in these spaces.
6.3.7 Fixing of Cables

When fixing the cables – the following must be taken into account.
• When cable bundles are mounted on trays the fixing is as follow:

• Cables above a tray:
- a few small cables with a bundle tie
- bigger bundles with wide bundle ties
• Cables under a tray, vertical trays and tray installed in their angle side:
- plastic bundle ties can be used, however every fourth tie shall be of
metal
• Outdoor cables shall be mounted with stainless steel band.

• Cable fixing is to be done at every ladder rung, max 400 mm.
• Cable fixing shall be fixed so that possible mechanical strain do not pass over
to penetrations or connection points.
• When installing cables without plastic tube inside the lining, the cables are
fastened to supporting construction of the ceiling with plastic bundle-ties.
6.3.8 Markings
• Cables entering terminal boxes and equals shall be marked with identification
markings.
• The cable identification is to be done with a metal dymo-tape – on open decks
the dymo-tape must be of stainless steel.

• Cable markings are the same as the identification marks in the drawings.
6.3.9 Cable Ends

When terminating the cables – the following must be taken into account:
• The cable is passed in switchboards, decks and terminals unpeeled as near the
connection place as possible.
• Mark extra wires (not used) and do not cut them.
• Earthing wire is marked following national rules and regulations.
• Cable wire ends of 0.5–2.5 mm2 shall be equipped with compression-type
collar, if the contact screw presses direct wires.
• A cable eye shall be installed at the end of a conductor, connected by means of
a screw or a bolt.
• No more than two conductors shall be connected onto one side of the same
terminal.
6.3.10 Protective earthings

• All metal casings of electrical equipment over 24 V are to be earthed to the
ships hull. When the earthing is done with cable conductors – yellow/green1
conductors are to be used or last conductor wire of the cable covered along the
whole length with yellow/green hose. Yellow/green is used only for earthings.
• All metal casings of electrical equipment over 24 V are to be earthed to the
train body. When the earthing is done with cable conductors – yellow/green2
conductors are to be used or last conductor wire of the cable covered along the
whole length with yellow/green hose. Yellow/green is used only for earthings.
• A separate earthing conductor is connected to the earthing point on the external
enclosure of the equipment and on the ships hull by means of a screw
connection.
• A separate earthing conductor is connected to the earthing point on the external
enclosure of the equipment and on the train body by means of a screw
connection.
• Devices shall not be earthed by means of a separate earthing conductor through
another installation (serial earthing).
• The door of a metal casing containing electrical equipment (voltage over 28 V)
must be earthed to the casings body with one earthing conductor. The earthing
fastening screw shall have a diameter of at least 6 mm with the exception of
the screws mounted by the manufacturer. The earthing screw shall not be used
for any other purpose than earthing.
• Electrical equipment is to be earthed by a single conductor cable
(yellow/green) of supply cable with a cross section area of 1.5–16 mm2.
Other equipment earthings - see table below.
1) Always mark earthing wires following national rules and regulations

2) Always mark earthing wires following national rules and regulations

6.3.11 Location of electrical equipment

CAUTION!
Ensure that the central unit enclosure is installed in a location that satisfies its
environmental requirements specified in the drawings.
CAUTION!
It is highly important to eliminate or reduce any high external electromagnetic
interference which can have a negative effect on the loop communication.
Make sure that cabling is carried out according to international rules and regulations.
The mounting heights are according to the table below, unless otherwise specified
in the installation drawings.

before 1.2.0 you may still be able to
program it by manually rebooting the
target when requested by the tool. (If
the bootloader supports booting over
Ethernet.)
3 Target will then re-establish connection with the tool and start downloading the new
firmware.
4 Target will be reflashed.
5 Target will reboot and start the new firmware.
7.2.4 Troubleshooting for Firmware Update Tool

If the tool runs but the firmware has not been updated
• Check that there is no cm_firmware file present on the SD card mounted in the
control module.
If the tool stops while attempting to start servers

• Check that you are running the tool with administrator rights
• Check that you have selected the correct Ethernet interface in Tools » Options
• Check that the target module is running (i.e. turned on)
If the tool stops while scanning for target hardware

• Check the physical cable connection
• Check that the target has U-boot 1.3.4 and firmware release at least 1.1.1
• Check that the target is running (i.e. turned on)
If the tool stops while establishing TFTP connection

• Try to re-run the program procedure from start, or
• Try to switch to another Ethernet adapter.
If the tool stops while requesting target reboot

• A target reboot may take some time, please be patient and wait awhile before
proceeding.
The tool should continue when a response is received from the target.

• The target hardware may be lacking a BIOS, or have a BIOS with an incorrect
version name. This prevents target reboot.
For instructions on how to solve this, refer to Upgrade BIOS, page 51.
• The target hardware may be running a firmware before 1.1.1 and therefore can
not respond.
In this case you can try and reboot the target manually.
7.3 Upgrading Large Systems

7.3.1 Upgrade strategy
NOTE!
The following procedure is recommended for centrals containing many control
modules/repeaters and/or distributed centrals.
Hint!
Before following the instructions below it might be a good idea to understand the
basics of what the instructions are trying to achieve in order to avoid excessive
master/slave switches and to minimize the traffic that occurs when the system is
trying to synchronize its state between all control modules.
To accomplish less traffic due to the configuration synchronization upgrade the

firmware and configuration at the same time for each control module using the
USB stick (repeaters must still be synchronized at the last step).
In order to reduce the number of master/slave switches the ordering of the upgrade
is to start with the control modules on the primary system bus and then proceed
with the control modules on the secondary system bus.
To further reduce traffic on extension buses. Upgrade and restart the control
modules owning an extension bus before the repeaters on the extension bus.
Finally, for really large systems (more than 5000 loop units) it will further reduce
the traffic to disconnect the system buses completely at 1.1 and 1.2 during the
upgrade.
7.3.2 How to upgrade each control module

Preparation
Prepare a USB memory stick with the desired controlm_firmware file and
configuration file.
Upgrade for control panel modules (Control M 4.3 and Control M 2.2)
Hint!
Further information can be found in section C. Upgrade the firmware in a Control M
4.3, Repeater M 4.3, Control M 2.2 or Control M X with USB port, page 54.

2 Reboot the control module. Update starts. Wait until the firmware
update is finished.

3 Remove the USB memory stick.

4 Restart the control module. Wait until the control module has

from USB Memory.
7 Remove the USB memory stick.
8 Restart the control module again.
Upgrade for Control M X modules without USB port
1 Connect an Ethernet cable to the Control M X For instructions to use CCP Firmware
and use the firmware updater software (CCP Update Tool, please refer to Upgrade
Firmware Update Tool). Firmware in a Control Module via
Ethernet (Control M X without USB
port), page 57
2 When the module is upgraded and restarted use WinSCP (or similar) to copy the
configuration file to /app/rw.
3 Restart the module again.
7.3.3 Upgrade modules in the following order

NOTE!
Make sure to read How to upgrade each control module above before attempting to
follow these instructions!
1 Disconnect power to all control modules/repeaters in the system.

For really large systems (more than 5000 loop units) also disconnect the system buses at
1.1 and 1.2.

Panel
8.1 General Alarm on the CCP Panel

The Fire alarm panel type Salwico CCP Cargo will be used as the General alarm
system. The general alarm functionality is type approved by Det Norske Veritas.
In addition to meeting the DNV requirements and regulation 6.4.2 of Chapter III in
the SOLAS the general alarm functionality meets the requirements of paragraph
7.2.1 of the LSA Code and IMO Resolution A.830(19): Code on Alarms and
Indicators, 1995. The CCP fire alarm system also conforms to the requirements in
IEC-90945.
In general, the sound level during general alarm should be a least 10 dB(A) above
the ambient noise level in all accommodation spaces, service spaces, control
stations and engine room spaces. Inside the cabins, the sound level should be at
least 75dB(A) at the sleeping position. In no case should alarm level in a space
exceed 120dB(A).
To comply with the DNV requirements the alarm devices must either have one
fused alarm circuit pr. deck or be connected to a ring loop as shown in Figure 23.
Figure 23. Ring loop.
Figure 24. shows the redundancy in power supply to all units in the system. The
system is power supplied both from the main 230 V supply and the emergency 230
V supply. The backup batteries must be calculated to last for at least 30 minutes.

General recommendations for RS-485 installation:
• Twisted pair wire should be used

• Shielded cables
• Star networks are not permitted
• Termination shall be made at each end of the bus with a 120 ohm resistor
• Max 700 m cable in one communications segment
• Two-wire connection shall be used when nodes have a common ground (-)
• Three-wire connection shall be used when nodes have a different ground (-),
for example between Bus Isolator M.

14.2 Additional Information for BBU Termination

14.2.1 Basic Backup Signal, BBU
The Basic Backup Signal, also known as X-Fire , is a signal in the Backbone Bus
that is used for transmitting the Central's alarm status. The BBU is only used when
a module in Managed mode loses communication with its Controller Module.

The outputs supporting the Basic Backup Signal have an X-Fire property that can
be set in the Configuration Program.
Modules not having full contact with the controller act upon the Basic Backup
Signal.
NOTE!
The pre-alarm level does not affect the Basic Backup Signal.
There are some rules for X-Fire:
• Modules that can act as a Controller are able to generate a 2.0 V Surveillance
Voltage on the Basic Backup Signal. At present only the Control Modules can
act as a Master.
• Only one module within each Central may generate the 2.0 V Surveillance
Voltage on the Basic Backup Signal.
• All modules that can generate alarms are able to generate the 6.0-28 V Fire
Voltage signal on the Basic Backup Signal. At present Modules with an
addressable detector loop (Loop M X) and conventional Zone ( I/O 70 M) can
generate alarms.
• If an I/O module is operating in normal or quarantine mode and the master
does not poll the module for 75 seconds, the module shall enter isolated mode
where it monitors fire inputs and issues fire alarms on its own I/O and using
the Basic Backup Signal according to their pre-stored configuration.
• Modules that can be configured to handle X-Fire Alarm shall supervise the
Basic Backup Signal for faults. At present this only excludes the Bus Isolator
Module.

CAUTION!
A 2 kΩ resistor is pre-fitted between terminals 31 and 32.
• Remove the resistor if the Basic Backup (BBU) output is being
used.
• Ensure the resistor remains fitted if the terminals are not in use.
If the resistor is missing when the BBU signal is activated (fire
alarm), it will not be possible to reset the alarm.
Figure 32. Example of BBE connection between two (or more) backbone segments in one spur
NOTE!
Only one of the Basic Backup (BBU) channels shall be connected.

several spurs
BBE = Backbone External, BBI = Backbone Internal, = 120 ohm resistor. Use twisted
pair cables for the BBE connections. See Figure 32. regarding the BBE, BBU and resistor
specific connections.

14.2.3 Testing the BBU Installation

1 Make sure that the system is connected to an external power supply.
2 Place a temporary jumper between terminals 31 and 41 to make a short circuit which
will trigger an alarm in the system.
3 Wait until the short circuit fault has generated an alarm in the system
4 Remove the temporary jumper between terminals 31 and 41.

• If the alarm can be reset the BBU installation is OK.
• If the alarm cannot be reset check for any missing 2 kΩ resistor between unused
terminals 31 and 32

Pre-Alarm condition A condition preceding the Alarm condition to give early warning for potentially
dangerous situations like a smouldering fire.
Programmable output Output which signal behaviour is configurable via the Configuration program.
PSU Power Supply Unit.
Rate of Rise Rate of Rise functionality by using C/E commands for setting of a different alarm
threshold and temperature rise threshold for heat detectors.
Redundancy Refers to the quality or state of being redundant, that is exceeding what is necessary or
normal. In the system the term is used to describe backup functionality like in Hot
Standby Controller modules.
Redundant loop Redundant loop means loop module redundancy on one single loop-line between two
loop modules.

Relay Electrically operated switch output, normally providing C/NO/NC contacts for
connection of signal receiver.
Repeater panel The main attribute for Repeater panels is that they can show information but not affect
the central (or system) they belong to. The Repeater M 4.3 is a Repeater panel.
RS-485 Serial communication interface used for external communication and BackBone bus.
Is a standard defining the electrical characteristics of drivers and receivers for use in
balanced digital multipoint systems.
Safe State Modules enter 'safe state' when they detect system faults. Modules in Safe State put
their I/O in a predefined state and stop all communication in order to avoid disturbing
system integrity.
Salwico Language A text based interpreting language for making logical cause effect expressions
developed by Consilium.
SCI Short Circuit Isolator.
SCM Software Configuration Management.
SCS Single Central System.
SDTv2 Safety protocol from CS-Com M
SMig system Salwico Safety Management interactive graphics, a PC-based software package
providing graphical presentation and control of the system.
Spur Branch from a loop-line without return.
Stretched central (DCS) A central that is physically distributed to two or more physical locations. One location
may or may not supply power to another location (segmented) and two locations may
or may not have isolated communication lines.
Sub-loop It is possible to connect sub-loop units to some loop units using a sub-loop cable. The
cable is however not a loop. One end is connected to the loop unit and the other end is
connected to the sub-loop unit.
Sub-loop unit A device which cannot be connected directly to the loop. A sub-loop unit can be a
switch or a relay contact will be used to send a fire or fault alarm to the FDS.
Synchronization signal A signal that is transmitted to a backbone bus in order to synchronise the system
modules.
System A system consists of a number of loop units and one or more centrals.
System bus The communication bus used for connecting multi-central systems. The System bus is
used for inter-central communication but can also be used for external communication.
If inter-central communication redundancy is required, the system bus will consist of a
primary and a secondary System bus.
TBD To Be Done, To Be Decided/Determined.
TCMS Train Control and Monitoring System acting as the central computer on-board the
train.
Terminal A Terminal is a physical point of connection, compare I/O pin.
Test condition Detectors put in the Test condition (or test mode) are inhibited from generating the
Alarm condition but the alarms are displayed on the Control panels to prove that the
tested detectors are operational.
USB Universal Serial Bus, a communications bus that may be used to connect flash
memories, keyboards, mice or other devices.
Warning Condition The state of the system when a warning is detected. Warnings are not as serious as
faults and only of informative nature, for example in case of a lightly contaminated
detector.
Zone A group of detectors located in a geographical area.
