To set the FCS-320 to the airflow typical for the pipe network, an airflow initialization (flow-
init) procedure is carried out. This must be done for each unit once at the start after
installation, each time the pipe system is replanned/redesigned and after changing the fan
voltage. This enables the unit to determine and save the airflow typical for the pipe network.
Pipe System
A pipe system with an overall length of up to 300m can be connected to FCS-320 series
aspirating smoke detectors over a maximum of 32 aspiration points. Two pipe systems can be
connected to both the FCS-320‑TP2 and FCS-320‑TT2 variants. The entire pipe system then
has a total length of 2 x 280m and a maximum number of 2 x 32 aspiration points.
