Refer to this Section to plan your tasks to complete the installation. Please read this section thoroughly, especially if you are installing the

IFP-FFT for the first time.

2.1 Environmental Specifications

It is important to protect the IFP-FFT control panel from water damage. To prevent water damage, the following conditions should be fol-

lowed when installing the units:

•

Do not mount the panel directly onto exterior walls, especially masonry walls (condensation).

•

Do not mount the panel directly on exterior walls below grade (condensation).

•

Protect the panel from plumbing leaks.

•

Protect the panel from splash caused by sprinkler system inspection ports.

•

Do not mount in areas with humidity-generating equipment (such as dryers, production machinery).

When you select a location to mount the IFP-FFT, the unit should be mounted where it will NOT be exposed to temperatures outside the

range of 32°F-120°F (0°C- 49°C) or humidity outside the range of 10% - 93% at 86°F (30°C) non-condensing.

2.2 Preventing Water Damage

Water damage to the fire fighters phone system can be caused by moisture entering the cabinet through the conduits. Conduits that are

installed to enter the top of the cabinet are most likely to cause water problems. Installers should take reasonable precautions to prevent water

from entering the cabinet. Water damage is not covered under warranty.

2.2.1 Removing the IFP-FFT Assembly from the Housing

If it is necessary to remove the control panel assembly from the cabinet for repair, remove the screws that hold the control panel into the cab-

inet. Do not attempt to disassemble the circuit boards.

2.3 Electrical Specifications

2.3.1 Power Requirements

The voltage for the IFP-FFT must be a power-limited, filtered, non-resettable nominal 24 VDC source. The voltage source must be within

the range of 17-29 VDC.

2.3.2 Current Ratings

Table 2.2 lists the maximum current ratings used to determine the backup battery requirements used for the alarm (active) and standby con-

ditions over the input voltage range of 17-29 VDC.
