RSI-95 Description Releasing Solenoid Interface The Releasing Solenoid Interface (RSI-95) is an addressable Releasing Service Module, providing intelligent analog addressable control functionality complete with full solenoid supervision and transient voltage suppression. Only the RSI-95 can be used to actuate the releasing solenoid. The RSI-95 is automatically bypassed during a SmartStart™ or circuit initialization to prevent accidental discharge during the generic configuration, should inputs be inadvertently activated. The analog addressable RSI-95 solenoid control module is designed for use with any 600 Series FACP. To avoid unplanned fire suppressant release, the RSI-95 assembly is the ONLY assembly to be used to provide remote releasing solenoid control. The circuit can control up to two amps of DC power to the solenoid. The RSI-95 is powered and controlled via the analog addressable signaling line circuit and the solenoid power is obtained from the control panel or a UL-Listed fire protection 24 VDC power supply. The RSI-95 fully supervises the releasing solenoid. CS-2064ph1.wmf The Gamewell-FCI 600 Series analog addressable Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) will provide all of the required functions to control the releasing of bulk fire suppressant materials. The Gamewell-FCI 600 Series analog addressable FACPs are currently listed for NFPA 13 Sprinkler, NFPA 15 Water Spray, NFPA 11 Low-Expansion Foam, NFPA 16 Water Foam, NFPA 17 Dry Chemical, and NFPA 2001 Clean Agent types of suppressant. The GamewellFCI Releasing Solenoid Interface (RSI-95) is an intelligent addressable interface for the remote control and supervision of activation solenoids used in releasing applications.

A page 1 of 2 Installation Guideline (Continued) Ordering Information The addition of the trim ring (P/N 70839) allows flush installation. The total voltage drop from the power supply to the end of the solenoid circuit shall not exceed two volts. The RSI-95 must have its address programmed before the system will operate correctly. Model Description RSI-95 RSI-95 assembly consists of an RSM-95 analog addressable Releasing Service Module and integral SID Solenoid Interface Device. NOTE: RSM-95 and SID no longer available separately. Flush trim ring for RSM-95. Installation Connect the system wiring to the four-position terminal block L1, L2, P1, P2 per wiring diagram A-W532-1. Connect the solenoid device wiring to the four-position terminal block per wiring diagram A-W572. 70839 IMPORTANT! Maximum L1 – L2 loop resistance should not be more than 25 ohms. CAUTION: No wiring connections should be made while the system is powered.
