20. FAULT All faults are delayed in order not to generate any unnecessarily faults, for example. for COM loop and zone line input faults the delay time is approx. 45 seconds. Some units may also have an internal delay time, which makes the delay time even longer, for example the Multipurpose I/O unit 4461 has an internal delay time of 30 seconds, which results in 45+30=75 seconds delay time in total.

Page 131: How To Avoid Nuisance Fire Alarms
EBL512 G3 V. 3.0.X - FIRE ALARM SOLUTIONS OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS 40. HOW TO AVOID NUISANCE FIRE ALARMS We all realise, when life, buildings, production facilities, etc. shall be saved, it is of utmost importance that an initial fire is detected as soon as possible.
Page 132 LACK OF MAINTENANCE Smoke detectors (sensors) are influenced by their environment and become "dirty". In an analog system (like EBL512 G3) a Service signal is given when it is time to exchange the smoke detectors (sensors) to new ones. The alternative is to exchange detectors at given periods, to be on the safe side.
Page 133: Radioactive Radiation Source
41. RADIOACTIVE RADIATION SOURCE Today, Panasonic have no ionization smoke point detectors but old detectors connected to the EBL512 G3 installation might be smoke sensors / detectors of the ionization type. They contain a small radioactive radiation source, normally Americium 241.
