Before You Begin Installing 3.6 Mounting the SK-2224 Read the environmental specifications in Section 3.5 before mounting the cabinet. The panel should be accessible to main drop wiring runs. It should be mounted as close to the center of the building as possible and located within a secured area, but should be accessible for testing and service. End-users responsible for maintaining the panel should be able to hear alarms and troubles.
Model SK-2224 Fire Control Panel Installation/Operation Manual 3.7 Assembly The components listed in Table 3-1 are all packed within the cabinet and require some assembly. Follow these steps to assemble the components inside the cabinet: 1. Remove keys from small manila envelope taped to the top of the cabinet. 2. Unlock the cabinet door. 3. Remove the packing material and the SK-2224 components. 4. Snap the bezel into the opening in the front of the cabinet. See Figure 3-3.
Before You Begin Installing 3.8 Wiring Specifications Induced noise (transfer of electrical energy from one wire to another) can cause false alarms or interfere with control panel operation in other ways. To avoid induced noise, follow these guidelines: • Isolate input wiring from high current output and power wiring. Do not pull one multiconductor cable for the entire panel.

Section 4 Hardware Installation 4.1 AC Power At installation, connect the transformer AC inputs to the AC power source as shown in Figure 4-1. It may be necessary for a professional electrician to make this connection. The AC inputs are rated as 120 VAC, 60 Hz or 230 VAC, 50 Hz. See Table 3-1 for more information.
Model SK-2224 Fire Control Panel Installation/Operation Manual 4.2 Battery Connection The SK-2224 battery charge capacity is 7.0 AH. Use two 12V batteries of the same AH rating. Determine the correct AH rating as per your current load calculation (see Table 3-6). Wire batteries in series to produce a 24-volt equivalent. Do not parallel batteries to increase the AH rating. Note: The SK-2224 cabinet supports two 7.0 AH batteries. Battery jumper (P/N 140694), shipped with the control panel.
Hardware Installation 4.3 4.3.1 Initiation Circuit Installation Contact Wiring Wire normally open contacts as shown in Figure 4-3. This is the type of wiring that would typically be used for water flow switches, heat detectors and other normally open devices. Figure 4-3 N.O. Contact Wiring 4.3.2 Two-Wire Smoke Detector Wiring Figure 4-4 shows how to connect two-wire smoke detectors to the SK-2224 loops. The figure uses Silent Knight's SLK-24F with HSB-224 base as an example.
