PRODUCT OVERVIEW
General Description of the Equipment
The ESPRiT-G extinguishing gas panel acts as both a conventional fire alarm panel and an automatic
extinguisher control panel and was designed from the ground up to be intuitive and flexible for the
engineer. The panel is easy to install and programme and incorporates a large 240 x 64-pixel graphical
LCD display, with an easy-to-navigate menu system, which contains simple discernible icons in each
section.
In-built safety features ensure the client’s employees and assets are protected to the highest degree
with the minimum risk.
The panels are available in One Flood Zone (three Conventional Detection Circuits), and Two Flood
Zones(six conventional detection circuits), and hence will be presented in two different enclosure sizes.
The Gas panel can be powered by either; 35W, 1.2 Amps (for 1 Flooding Area), or 100W, 3.4 Amps
(for 2 Flooding Areas), switch mode PSU’s, rated at 230VAC, 50/60Hz.
The panel also offers optional Output Expansion Relay Board providing additional volt-free relay
outputs.
The panel supports connections for up to Sixteen Remote Status Units (RSU), or up to Sixteen
Economy Remote Status Units (EcoRSU).
This product has been designed and manufactured in the United Kingdom.

INSTALLATION
Safety
Important notice:
Please read this manual before handling the equipment and observe all advice given within it.
Important Notes:
The product must be installed, commissioned and maintained for operation in accordance with the
instructions and the applicable wiring codes of practice and national standard regulations for fire
systems appropriate to the country and location of the installation.
This equipment is designed to be operated from 230V AC 50/60 Hz mains supplies and is of Class I
construction. As such it must be connected to a protective earthing conductor in the fixed wiring of the
installation. Failure to ensure that all conductive accessible parts of this equipment are adequately
bonded to the protective earth will render the equipment unsafe.
Warnings
Warning Sign: Before installation refer to the ratings shown on the label inside the
product and to the ‘Specifications Chart’ in this document. If you are unclear on any
point, please DO NOT proceed. Contact the manufacturer or supplier for
clarification and guidance.
Only trained service personnel should undertake the Installation, Programming
and Maintenance of this equipment.
Cautions
Equipment Guarantee
This product has been manufactured in conformance with the requirements of all
applicable EU Council Directives and is not guaranteed unless the complete system
is installed and commissioned in accordance with the laid down national standards.
This product has been designed to comply with the requirements of the Low Voltage Safety and the
EMC Directives. Failure to follow the installation instructions may compromise its adherence to
these standards.
Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment Directive

Approved Document Ref: UI-ESG-01 Issue 2.0
ESD Precaution
This particularly applies to the precautions necessary to avoid Electro-Static Discharge.
Attention –Observe precaution for handling electro-static sensitive devices.
This equipment is constructed with static sensitive components. Wear an anti-static earth strap
connected to panel enclosure earth point. Before installing or removing any printed circuit boards
remove all sources of power (mains and battery).
Note: This equipment is a piece of class 1 equipment and must be earthed.
Installing the System
Environment
The site chosen for the location of the panel should be clean, dry and not subject to shock or vibration.
Environments where there is damp, salt air, water ingress or extremes of temperature must be avoided.
The temperature should be in the range of -5°C to +40°C, and the relative humidity should not exceed
95%.
Mounting the Cabinet
Secure the cabinet to the wall using the four indented holes in the back of the cabinet. Ensure the
cabinet is mounted level and in a convenient location for it to be operated and serviced.
Recommended screws size is M 4.0 * 38mm.
External cables should pass through a suitable gland and fitted to the cabinet via preformed knockouts
at the top and rear of the cabinet. Any unused knockouts must be securely blanked off.
Knockouts should be removed with a sharp tap at the rim of the knockout, using a 6mm broad bladed
screwdriver. Use of excessive force will damage the enclosure around the knockout.

Mains Connections
Note: All connection must be carried out in accordance to local requirements and regulations.
Connecting the Batteries
Note: In the event of mains failure, the battery charger circuit will protect the batteries from full
discharge by disconnecting them when they reach below 19v. When the mains supply is restored the
batteries will be automatically reconnected.
Note: If the mains are connected before the batteries, the panel will show a Power Supply fault for up
to 1 minute until the monitoring cycle has finished polling. This is normal. If the fault doesn’t clear after
1 minute, check connections.
Connect the red lead to the positive (+) terminal of battery No.1 and the black lead to the negative (-)
terminal of battery No.2. Connect the negative terminal of battery No.1 to the positive terminal of
battery No.2, using the supplied link cable.

Battery Charging Voltage Checks
The battery charging voltage is factory calibrated to 27.3VDC +/- 0.2V at 20°C. This should not normally
require adjustment. Where battery problems are experienced, the following information should be
considered.
Quiescent current and alarm current details for standby battery calculations:
a) If a battery is disconnected from the charger, no voltage will appear on the output leads or
terminals, due to intelligent battery controls.
b) Check the power supply voltage at the PSU supply input terminals. With the batteries disconnected
the voltage should be 29.0VDC +/- 0.2V.
c) To test the batteries, turn off the mains and see if the system will run on the batteries. Check the
battery voltage, which should be 26.8V for a good battery or 22V for a flat battery.
d) The power supply voltage can be adjusted using the potentiometer on the power supply module,
checking at the 28V & 0V output terminals with a calibrated voltmeter. Batteries should be
disconnected and the Access Level 3 DIL switch should be set to ‘ON’, which will override the
temperature compensation controls. Carefully adjust the voltage to 29.0VDC +/- 0.2V. When
completed, switch off Access Level 3 DIL switch and re-connect the batteries.
e) When the panel is re-charging a low battery, it should be possible to see the voltage across the
batteries increase gradually. If this is not occurring, the batteries or the panel may be faulty.
Battery Charging Voltage Calibration
Should the battery charging voltage require calibrating (i.e. following replacement of the main board),
proceed as follows:
•Turn Activate Controls key clockwise to On
or
•Use the keypad to enter Authorised User (Access level 2) code 1111:
oPress ✓key
oUse Up/Down arrow keys to increase/decrease the number value
oUse Left/Right arrow keys to move to the next digit in the 4-digit sequence
oWhen all 4 digits have been set to the code 1111, press the ✓key again
•The Main Menu will become available for operation
•On the Main Menu, use Left/Right arrow keys to move cursor box to Report menu
•Press Enter ✓key to select the Report menu
•Under Report Menu, use Left/Right arrow keys to highlight the BATTERY option, and then
press Enter ✓key to select it
•BATTERY STATUS menu will display the following:
