    RCDS-2 Releasing circuit disable switch

    Description

    The device consists of a key operated DPDT switch and 1 green and 1 amber LED. It is mounted to a
    stainless steel faceplate designed to mount to a single gang electrical enclosure.
    The RCDS-2 complies with the requirements of NFPA Standards.
    Also, it complies with the NFPA 72 in the following way:
    · Specifying a physical switch to disconnect the release circuit in placer of a software controlled
    disconnect.

    · Creating a supervisory condition on the associated release panel.


    The green Led indicates the RCDS-2 is in the normal condition and the release circuit is enabled. The
    amber Led indicates that the release circuit is disabled.

    Operation

    With the key in the "System Normal" position, the green LED will be lit and the release circuit will be
    connected to the electrical actuator head of the extinguishing agent. Turning the key to the "Releasing
    Circuit Disabled" position turns off the green LED and lights the amber LED while disconnecting the release
    circuit from the electrical actuator head of the extinguishing agent. This allows to doing the maintenance
    working safely.

    · The green LED indicates the RCDS-2 is in the normal condition and the release circuit is enabled.
    · The amber LED indicates that the release circuit is disabled.

    Engineering specifications

    The Releasing Circuit Disable Switch, RCD5-2, shall be capable of switching the release output of a
    release panel to either a system normal (system under service) or releasing circuit disabled (system
    disabled).

    The unit shall consist of a DPDT key operated switch rated for 1 Amp at 40 VDC mounted to a stainless
    steel faceplate with green and amber LEDs:

    · The green LED shall be labeled "System Normal" and shall only light when the key is in the main
    position (system under service).
    · The amber LED shall be labeled "Releasing Circuit Disabled" and shall only light when the switch is
    in the secondary position (system disabled).

    The Key shall be removable in either position. The unit shall be designed to mount on a standard single
    gang enclosure.

    Installation instructions

    To install this Releasing circuit disable switch, the next instructions must be followed:

    · Connect the red and black leads to the 24 VDC power terminals on the Fire Alarm Control Panel.
    Be certain to observe polarity. Black in the negative terminal and Red in the positive terminal on the
    FACP.
    · Connect the yellow wires of the RCDS-2 to the supervisory zone on the release panel.

    Installation of the EOL diode with the RCDS-2

    The End Of Line diode is installed between the Releasing Circuit Disable Switch and the Re-assembled
    Electrical Actuator. For install the EOL diode, follow the diagram in the respective chapter of the RCDS-2 of
    this document or follow the instructions below:

    1. Connect the orange wires from the Release Circuit Disable Switch (RCDS-2) to the negative terminal
    of the EOL diode.

    2. Connect the positive terminal with a cable to the Re-assembled Electrical Actuator. The other terminal
    of the Re-assembled Electrical Actuator is connected to the positive terminal of the Fire Alarm Control
    Panel.

    3. Connect the gray wires from the Releasing Circuit Disable Switch to the EOL diode. Be certain to
    observe polarity.
