FLEXmax 100
Here is an example of how to wire the FireRaptor with the FM100. The key is to give the FM100
the proper signal to disconnect power to the FWPV6-FH600-SDA during a rapid shutdown event.
The FM100 requires a closed circuit signal during normal operation and an open circuit during a rapid
shutdown event. Two different options are:
Wiring across a dry contact that opens during a rapid shutdown event, and connecting that to the
FM100 RSD input on the C
ONTROL WIRING TERMINAL BLOCK (also called the AUX terminals).
Connect the 24 Vdc output of the switch to a 24-volt-rated normally open device (OBR-16-DIN)
that will open upon loss of 24 Vdc and close with the presence of 24 Vdc.
The FWPV6-FH600-SDA should be powered on the controlled side of the switch, so that upon a
rapid shutdown event 24 Vdc will be removed from the FWPV6-FH600-SDA combiner box.
