FireRaptor Overview
The IMO FireRaptor shuts down DC supply at panel level to ZERO VOLTS in case of emergency. Shut-down is initiated in three ways -
Manual Operation, External Power Loss or Temperature Rise Trigger as follows:
Solar Panel Rapid Shutdown & Alarm
• Manual Panel Shutdown to 0V Operated from Ground Level
• Automatic Panel Shutdown to 0V at >85°C (185°F) Temperature
• Automatic Panel Shutdown to 0V on External Power Loss
• Hardwire or Mobile Communication Alarm Signalling
• Compliant with NEC 2014 & NEC 2017
• Suitable for New Installations or Retro-Fit

MANUAL OPERATION
Manual shutdown is initiated within less than 1 second of operation by pressing the emergency pushbutton on the Emergency Rapid
Shutdown Switch (Part no FRS-ESWx). The Emergency Switch can be conveniently located at ground level for easy access or multiple
switches can be installed in different multi-level building zones.
EXTERNAL POWER LOSS
Disconnection of the external AC supply, by whatever means, causes automatic remote operation of the Emergency Rapid Shutdown
Switch and panle shutdown.
TEMPERATURE RISE TRIGGER
Automatic shutdown occurs if the temperature sensor onboard the FireRaptor detects an ambient temperature rise above 85˚C (185˚F).
The two FireRaptor versions available shutdown in different ways.
The
FRS-01 shuts down only the panel(s) connected to it upon sensing an ambient temperature rise above 85˚C (185˚F). Provided
the temperature does not exceed 92˚C (198˚F), the unit will re-engage the panel(s) if the temperature drops back below 85˚C
(185˚F), otherwise a manual reset of the Emergency Switch is required.
The
FRS-02 shuts down the entire string connected to it upon sensing an ambient temperature rise above 92˚C (198˚F) and
resetting of the Emergency Switch by a professional installer is then required. The shut-down signal can be congured to provide
connection to the building’s central alarm system or notication via mobile communication (SMS, email etc.).
