FL 128 Multizone System 15.01.2021 44
Yearly
It is recommended that the system is checked on an annual basis and costs can be forwarded to incorporate
the following schedule:
This inspection involves a complete Panel function re-test in accordance with our factory testing
schedule for all new Panels.
• Test all outputs, relays, sounders and LED indicators
• Ensure all relays are armed
• Check last 10 logged events for recording purposes
• Ensure date and time are correct
• Verify sensitivity settings for current conditions
• Check any personalised messages for zoning are still valid
• Check correct functioning of fan and battery
Zone Testing
Zone testing of the entire installation. This would comprise remote testing with meter readings
being taken from the control Panel position and comparisons made, to identify any anomalies,
against a standard alarm/detection threshold. Any anomalous results will be recorded, and a
physical inspection made of those zones.
The following list identifies the meaning of each reading range:
Open Circuit - above 1 meg ohm – “system fault”
Safe - 1 meg ohm to 300k/100k/50k/25k/ (according to
Sensitivity threshold chosen)
Wet - Below 300k/100k/50k/25k/ (as above) – “leak”
Short Circuit - Below 5k ohms – “system fault”
Cable Location Verification
A sample of 25% of the zones would be physically checked at two points along their extent for
correct Cable/Sensing Device positioning in accordance with the original design. Should any
variance be found it will be sufficiently investigated to establish an overall picture.
Sensor Testing
Selected areas will be wet tested to verify the correct working of the system.
Please Note: If the Leak Detection Alarms are onward communicated to a BMS etc, all
relevant personnel should be aware a maintenance check is being carried out.
