3. Protector Overview
3.1 Product Decription
The AutroGuard® Multicriteria Protector and its base are designed for
use with Autronica’s interactive fire detection systems.
The AutroGuard® Multicriteria Protector features two heat sensors
and a smoke chamber. The type of operation can be configured to fit
the application, Heat, Optical or Multi Sensor.
AutroGuard® protectors can be delivered in a combination with
integrated sounder, LED indicator and EN54-23 approved visual alarm
device (VAD).
The protector range comprises series V-430 and the SIL2-certified
(pending) series V-530. Specific Ex ia or Ex ic versions of the V-530
series are available for use in use in intrinsically safe areas EX zone 0,
1 and 2. (See next chapter for information on variants).
The AutroGuard® basesare prepared for easy mounting and
fastening of the protector. The loop diagnostic tool AS2000 can be
used to scan all loops, view the loop topology and type of bases,
verify connections and detect possible short-circuits or breaks on the
loops before protectors are mounted.
Autronica provides also several different variants of protectors
specifically intended for retrofit purposes. These protectors can easily
be mounted onto an existing AutroSafe base (BWA-100/BWA-101).
The replacement is a 1 to 1 replacement. No software upgrade or re-
configuration is necessary.
Autrosafe fire panels support configurations of mixed loops
consisting of both legacy AutroSafe detectors and AutroGuard®
protectors.
