Dorma 8600 EMR Series User manual

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
Each 8600 EMR series unit contains a door closer, hold
open electromagnet and smoke detector. The unit can be
used as a single installation or as a series of singles
powered from one or more power supplies. When a
series of 8600 EMR units are wired together in a run,
groups of up to 5 units may be interconnected.
Interconnection is accomplished through terminals #4
and #15 and results in all units alarming when any one
of them senses smoke. In turn, all associated hold
open electromagnets are de-energized. Within any run of
detectored units, it is permissible to form as many
interconnected groups as the total power supply
amperage will allow; but, again no more than 5 units
can be interconnected together.
Any detectored 8600 EMR series unit can be connected
to an auxiliary EMF non-detectored unit, or remote
detector, or both. It can be a single installation or part
of any of the multiple arrangements described above.
An auxiliary unit (double door applications) is a
companion to the main unit, and its electromagnet
de-energizes along with the main unit. A remote open
area detector sensing smoke alarms the 8600 EMR to
which it is connected and any other 8600 EMR to which
it is interconnected.
Single installations or groups of installations can be
connected to the alarm initiation circuit of a compatible
UL/ULC listed fire alarm control unit in 4-wire or 6-wire
configurations.
Additional functions are provided to separately power
the hold open electromagnet directly from the alarm control
panel as well as connections for a remote alarm
indicator lamp.
INSTALLATION
1. Read entire instruction sheet prior to installation
and refer to NFPA 72E. Standards may be obtained
from THE NATIONAL FIRE PROTECTION
ASSOCIATION, Batterymarch Park, Quincy,
MA 02269.
2. Reference unit carton for unit mounting type.
3. Prepare door and frame for fasteners using the
appropriate template. Mark, drill, and tap holes as
indicated. If surface wiring is used, omit 7/8" hole
for wire access.

WIRE GAUGE: The maximum wire gauge for wiring the SD2 detector module is #18 AWG. The method for
determining wire gauge is given below. NOTE: A minimum of 20.4 VDC must be supplied to each electromagnet
in the run.
E1, E2, E3 etc. are the number of electromagnets at each subsequent station. D1 is the distance from the
power supply to the first solenoid station. D2, D3, D4 etc. are the distances from the previous solenoid
station to the next solenoid station in the run. To determine the correct wire gauge multiply E1 times D1.
Add that quantity to E2 times D2. Repeat the same procedure for each solenoid to test the last unit in
the run. Compare the quantity calculated to the chart below. The calculated value must be less than or
equal to the value corresponding to the appropriate wire gauge.
10 GAUGE-11,788 12 GAUGE-7,407 14 GAUGE-4,669 16 GAUGE-2,997 18 GAUGE-1,843
The procedure described above can be expressed in the following equation: (E1xD1) + (E2xD2) + (E3xD3)
....(EnxDn) The above values correspond to the wire gauge to be used. If the calculated value is 1,843
#18 AWG wire can be run and connected directly to the detector module. If the calculated value exceeds
1,843 larger wiring will be required. Since the detector will only accept #18 AWG wire, a wiring splice will
be necessary as illustrated below.

NOTE: Make this connection the same time as the main hold open electromagnet
connection. Strip approximately 1/4" of plastic insulation from the ends
of the wires. Connect auxilliary hold open electromagnet wires to 9&6 of SD2 detector.
Some applications may require input power to the hold open
electromagnet to be supplied through a UL/ULC listed alarm control
panel so the hold open electromagnet functions separately from the
internal detector module. This application requires the alarm
contacts of the SD2 detector and any remote detectors
to be connected to the alarm contacts of the control panel. An alarm indication to
the panel results in the loss of power to the hold open electromagnets in the related
zone, which allows the doors to close. Wire main electromagnet to alarm control panel as
illustrated.

1. Up to (5) SD2 detectors, with or without connection to an auxiliary unit or remote area detector may be interconnected. This limitation applies
only to interconnected units and assumes a power supply large enough to handle this load if the power supply is common to all units
interconnected. Separate power supplies may be used for each SD2 detector while permitting the units to be interconnected.
2a. For units without connection to remote detectors, connect terminal #15 (+) between the units to be interconnected. Connect terminal #4 (-)
between the units to provide a common for the interconnection. Additional units are wired in the same manner as unit #2 but no more than
five (5) units can be interconnected.
2b. For units used in conjunction with remote area detectors, complete wiring connections as illustrated
below. Heed caution note in SD2 DETECTOR TO REMOTE AREA DETECTOR section of instruction sheet.
Additional units are wired in the same manner as unit #2 but no more than five (5) units can be
interconnected. Installations using a combination of SD2 detector modules with or without remote area
detectors can be wired accordingly by substituting the wiring diagram from unit 1, 2, or 3 in step 2a.

SD2 DETECTOR TO REMOTE AREA DETECTOR
SD2 DETECTOR TO AUDIBLE SIGNAL APPLIANCE
A remote open area detector can only be connected to a unit whose trouble relay contacts
(#5 & #13) are connected in a circuit for the purpose of obtaining an audible trouble signal
in the event of a circuit fault. In the event that the unit is used for releasing service only,
the trouble contacts are connected to the trouble circuit of a UL/ULC listed alarm control
panel. This condition is satisfied by the four (4) and six (6) wire supervisory connections in
the alarm initiation wiring section. Perform wiring connections as illustrated below. NOTE: The
SD2 is wired as the E.O.L. (end of line) device for the remote detector. Therefore, it
must act as the last item in the loop.
