GSA-REL Technical Reference Manual 25
Wiring the GSA-REL
Caution: Do not connect the releasing solenoids before the system has been
programmed and tested, and the Signature loop controller and GSA-REL have
reached their normal state. See Chapter 3 “Programming” and Chapter 4,
“Testing and troubleshooting” for details. Failure to follow these instructions can
result in unexpected release of the fire suppression agent.
Observe static-sensitive material handling practices while installing or servicing
the GSA-REL. Electrostatic discharge may damage the equipment and activate
the release circuits.
Ensure that you are using a compatible power supply, as listed in the topic
“Compatible panels and devices” on page 6.
Wire the GSA-REL according to Figure 12.
If your application requires supervision of the service disconnect station, install
and wire components according to Figure 13.
MIR2 systems have a relay confirmation function that you can program to
indicate activation of the prerelease and release relays at the panel. QuickStart
systems do not offer relay confirmation, so additional components are required to
indicate activation of the prerelease and release relays. See Figure 14 for
component and wiring details.
Note: When you use monitor or supervisory event messages to indicate
activation of the service disconnect station, prerelease relay, or release relay,
you must route those messages to the panel.
