Description
2243isox.wmf
The Gamewell SS-LI Fault Isolator
Module is used with the 602, 610,
632, 654, 658, 602VE, 610VE, VSYS1 thru IS-610 and 632-126 thru -1008
to protect the system against wireto-wire short circuits on the
SmartScanTM SLC loops.
Applications
The Fault Isolator Modules should
be spaced between groups of sensors in a loop to protect the rest of
the loop. Use to isolate short circuit
SS-LI Fault Isolator Module
problems within a section of a loop
so that other sections can continue
to operate normally. The SS-LI supports a maximum of 25 devices
inbetween isolators.
The maximum number of addressable devices between isolators (or B224BI isolator bases) is 25 devices. B224RB relay bases draw more current than other intelligent devices. When calculating the 25-device maximum: B224RB represents 2.5
DEVICES
NOTE ON MAXIMUM NUMBER OF DEVICES: Up to 99 SS-LI modules and/or bases
an be used per Signaling Line Circuit (SLC) without loss of additional module addresses due to current limitations.
• Integral LED blinks to indicate
normal condition. Illuminates
steady when short circuit condition
is detected.
• High noise (EMF/RFI) immunity.
• Wide viewing angle of LED.
• SEMS screws with clamping
plates for ease of wiring.
• Opens SLC loop automatically on
detection of short, preventing the
short from causing failure of the
entire loop.
• Automatically resets on correction
of short.
• Supports Style 4, 6, or 7 wiring.

Operation
Specifications
Automatically opens circuit when the line voltage drops below four volts. Fault Isolator Modules should be spaced between groups of addressable devices (maximum
25, see notes on page 1) in a loop to protect the rest of the loop. If a short occurs
between any two isolators, then both isolators immediately switch to an open circuit
state and isolate the groups of sensors between them. The remaining units on the
loop continue to fully operate.
Operating voltage
15 – 32 VDC (peak).
Current range
5 mA for LED latched in alarm.
Standby current
400 µA maximum, plus supervision current.
Pulsing current
30 mA for 15 mS.
Temperature range
32°F to 120°F (0°C to 49°C).
Relative humidity
10% to 93%.
Weight
150 grams (5 oz.).
In Style 4 loops, the SS-LI is generally used at each T-tap branch, to limit the effect of
short circuits on a branch to the devices on that branch. The LED indicator is on
continuously during a short circuit condition.
The SS-LI Fault Isolator Module automatically restores the shorted portion of the
communications loop to normal condition when the short circuit condition is removed.
