EN54-23 Open Class—FC430LPBSB LP Loop

Powered Beacon-Sounder Base

Introduction

The EN54-23 Open Class—FC430LPBSB LP Loop Pow-

ered Beacon-Sounder Base is designed to be driven

from a FIRECLASS controller via the addressable loop.

The FC430LPBSB LP is designed to be fitted between

a detector and a 4" mounting flange.

A ‘Type A’ mounting flange is supplied with the base

and can be fixed to a flat surface or a suitable electrical

backbox with standard 50 mm, or 70 mm fixing centres.

Alternatively, a DAB3-4 mounting flange (to be ordered

separately, refer to “Order Information” on page 14)

can be used with surface mount trunking.

Fig. 1 shows a general view of the base.

The beacon-sounder base may be used without a detec-

tor by fitting a blanking cap (see “Order Information” on

page 14).

The detector or blanking cap must be locked onto the

beacon-sounder base by using a locking device (sup-

plied).

The sounder has four volume settings:

High (90 dB ±3),

Mid High (80 dB ±3),

Mid Low (70 dB ±3) and

Low (60 dB ±3).

The beacon emits a white flashing light and has two

flash rates:

Slow Flash (½ Hz), or

Fast Flash (1 Hz).

The FC430LPBSB LP Beacon-Sounder Base devices are

synchronised, but not synchronous with other sounders

(FC430SB/FC410SNM) and beacons (FC430SAB).

The first flash of the beacon is synchronised with the

start of the tone.

The FC430LPBSB LP Beacon-Sounder Base has a built

in two port isolator.

The FC430LPBSB LP Beacon-Sounder Base requires

two addresses, not including the associated detector.

Fig. 4). The data applies to both the Slow Flash (1/2 Hz)

and the Fast Flash (1 Hz) while it is fitted with either a

detector or a blanking cap.

The light distribution is cylindrically symmetrical about

an axis at a right angle (Alpha of 90°) to the surface on

which the device is mounted, i.e. when the device is

mounted on a horizontal ceiling, the light distribution is

symmetrical about an axis extending vertically down-

wards through the centre of the device. The light distri-

bution in Fig. 4 represents a cross-section through the

volumetric shape using the values as indicated in
