Description
Mircom’s intelligent module products are designed to meet
a wide range of applications. Monitor and control modules
can be used to supervise and activate sounders, strobes,
door closers, pull stations, waterfl ow switches, conventional
smoke detectors, and more. Each module is rigorously designed and tested for electromagnetic compatibility and
environmental reliability, in many cases exceeding industry
standards. Modules are addressed with easy-to-use rotary
code switches. Full size modules mount in standard 4″ x 4″
x 2 ⅛” junction box. Wiring terminals are easily accessible
for troubleshooting purposes.
MIX-M500M Monitor Module, MIX-M501M Mini Monitor Module and MIX-M500DM Dual Input Monitor Module
Mircom’s monitor modules provide an interface to contact
devices, such as security contacts, waterfl ow switches,
or manual stations. They are capable of Styles A and
B supervised wiring to the load device (MIX-M500M
is capable of Style D). Conventional 4-wire smoke
detectors can be monitored through their alarm and
trouble contacts, wired as an initiating loop to the module.
In addition to transmitting the supervised state of the
monitored device (normal, open, or short), the full analog
supervision measurement is sent back to the panel. This
allows impedance changes in the supervised loop to the
monitored device to be detected.
The MIX-M500DM is capable of monitoring two separate
Class B circuits simultaneously, making it ideal for
waterfl ow tamper switch and fl ow switch monitoring. The
small size of the MIX-M501M allows it to fi t inside devices
or junction boxes behind devices.
MIX-M500R Relay Module
The MIX-M500R Relay Module contains two isolated sets
of Form-C contacts, which operate as a DPDT switch. The
module allows the control panel to switch these contacts
on command. No supervision is provided for the relay
contacts.
MIX-M502M Zone Interface Module
The MIX-M502M Zone Interface Module allows Mircom’s
intelligent panels to interface and monitor two-wire
conventional smoke detectors. All two-wire detectors
being monitored must be UL or ULC compatible with
the module. The MIX-M502M is addressed through the
communication line of an intelligent Mircom system. It
transmits the status of one zone of two-wire detectors
to the fi re alarm control panel. Status conditions are
reported as normal, open, or alarm. The interface module
supervises the zone of detectors and the connection of
the external power supply.
MIX-M500S Supervised Control Module
The MIX-M500S Supervised Control Module provides
supervised monitoring of wiring to load devices that
require an external power supply to operate, such as
horns, strobes, or bells. It is capable of Styles Y and Z
supervision. Upon command from the control panel, the
MIX-M500S will disconnect the supervision and connect
the external power supply across the load device. The
disconnection of the supervision provides a positive
indication to the panel that the control relay actually turned
on. The external power supply is always relay isolated
from the communication loop, so that a trouble condition
on the power supply will never interfere with the rest of the
system. Full analog measurement of the supervised wiring
is transmitted back to the panel and can be used to detect
impedance changes or other special test functions.
M500X Isolator Module
The M500X Isolator Module is an automatic switch that
opens when the line voltage drops below four volts.
Isolator modules should be spaced between groups of
sensors or modules in a loop to protect the rest of the loop.
If a short occurs between any two isolators, then both
isolators immediately switch to an open circuit state and
isolate the devices between them. The remaining units
on the loop continue to fully operate. No more than 25
devices are recommended for each group.
