APPLICATION OF XP95 DETECTORS ADDRESSING AND COMMUNICATIONS The choice of detector from the XP95 range follows the well established principles of system design. That is, the optimum detector type will depend on the type of fire risk and fire load, and the type of environment in which the detector is sited. Each XP95 device responds to interrogation and command from central control equipment.

XP95 IONISATION SMOKE DETECTOR Fig.1 XP95 Ionisation Smoke Detector page 6 OPERATING PRINCIPLES The XP95 ionisation smoke detector has a moulded self-extinguishing white polycarbonate case with wind resistant smoke inlets. Stainless steel wiper contacts connect the detector to the terminals in the mounting base. Inside the detector case is a printed circuit board that has the ionisation chamber mounted on one side and the address capture, signal processing and communications electronics on the other.
ELECTRICAL DESCRIPTION The detector is designed to be connected to a two wire loop circuit carrying both data and a 17V to 28V dc supply. The detector is connected to the incoming and outgoing supply via terminals L1 and L2 in the mounting base. A remote LED indicator requiring not more than 4mA at 5V may be connected between +R and -R terminals. An earth connection terminal is also provided, although this is not required for the functioning of the detector.

XP95 HEAT DETECTOR Fig.12 XP95 Heat Detector Part Number 55000-400 external air temperature. OPERATING PRINCIPLES The XP95 heat detectors have a common profile with ionisation and optical smoke detectors but have a low air flow resistance case made of self-extinguishing white polycarbonate. The devices monitor heat by using a single thermistor network which provides a voltage output proportional to the Fig.
