Galvanic Isolator Interface

Pertronic

ISGAIFNZSSAP Interface

The Pertronic Galvanic Isolator Interface (ISGAIFNZSSAP) connects a galvanically isolated detection circuit to a Pertronic conventional detection zone. The interface may be used with a conventional Pertronic fire alarm control panel (F1, F4, F16e), or a Pertronic loop responder.

The interface performs two functions:

  • Translates signals from intrinsically safe devices to trigger the appropriate response in a Pertronic conventional detection zone
  • Compensates for level changes introduced by the Galvanic Isolator

The Pertronic Galvanic Isolator Interface is compatible only with NZS 4512:2010 detection circuits. It does not support NZS 4512:1997 detection circuits.

Features

  • Interfaces one conventional detection zone with a Pepperl + Fuchs KFD0-CS-Ex1.51P Galvanic Isolator connected to conventional detection devices
  • Suitable for Pertronic NZS 4512:2010 20 Volt (nominal) conventional circuits, including F1, F4, F16e, and Loop Responder
  • Powered from conventional zone +20 Volt dc output
  • Translates Orbis intrinsically-safe (IS) detector levels and MCP activation to Pertronic M-voltage levels
  • May be used with a mix of Orbis and System Sensor EIS series IS detectors
  • Works with normally-closed type intrinsically-safe MCPs (contact goes open when activated)
  • LED indications for NORMAL (green), ALARM (red), and DEFECT (yellow)
  • Label on the product shows connection diagram
  • Maintains the integrity of fire alarm control panel Earth-Defect supervision
  • On-board indicator shows current and historic defects
  • Missing 20 V, 0 V, or M causes a defect
  • Wiring open- or short-circuits between the Interface and the Galvanic Isolator trigger a Defect
  • 35 mm DIN-rail mounting

NOTE

The Galvanic Isolator Interface does not support NZS 4512:1997 circuits. In these circuits, an open circuit in the detector cabling would trigger a (non-indicating) heat or MCP alarm condition at the panel.
