The main alarm card(s) for the EN54 MX series are developed to allow a delay in power outage alarms. This function is used to prevent immediate alarms during brief power outages, which can reduce the risk of false alarms and thus minimize the need for unnecessary interventions. The delay can be set within a range from 1 minute to a maximum of 30 minutes, depending on the specific requirements of the system in question.
The delay function is particularly relevant in environments where temporary power interruptions may occur, but where an immediate alarm is not always necessary. By setting a delay, the system provides the user with time to resolve the issue before an alarm is triggered. This is especially useful in situations where short-term power fluctuations should not generate an alarm, such as during maintenance or minor electrical disturbances.
The installation of the cards is designed to integrate seamlessly into existing EN54 MX systems without significant modifications. The system complies with the necessary EN54 standards for fire alarm systems, ensuring that the product meets current European safety requirements.
In summary, this delay function provides flexibility and reliability in managing power outage alarms, reducing the risk of false alarms and optimizing system reliability
