5.0 Installation
The TimeSaver base enables quick and easy installation of these units
with no extra cabling to be made to the head of the unit. Connections are
made to the base during the initial wiring phase which results in a faster
and more reliable installation. The sounder head ‘twists and clicks’ into
the base on commissioning, thus avoiding any wiring or connection prob-
lems associated with traditional installations.
If required, the mechanism for locking the sounder to the base can be
activated by removing the thin section of plastic shown in Fig. 1 with side
cutters or a similar tool. To open a locked head, remove the small rubber
bung from the hole on the side of the sounder insert a tool into the hole,
and depress the clip whilst twisting the head.
An alternative locking method is shown in Fig. 1b. Drive the hexagonal
locking screw forward by turning a 1.5mm hexagonal key clockwise until
the head is locked.
The O-ring and bung must be re-tted to maintain weatherproong.
General Requirement
The Sounder must be installed in accordance with the latest EN60079-0
specication or equivalent IEC specication, with consideration for any
local installation requirements, and should only be carried out by appro-
priately competent and qualied personnel.

• The location of the Sounder should be chosen with due regard to
the area over which the signalling device must be audible.
• These units are suitable for wall or ceiling mount only.
• Environmental exposure conditions during installation should be dry.
Moist or wet conditions should be avoided.
• Avoid mounting the Sounder where it may be subjected to excessive
vibration.
To mount the unit
• Remove the head from the base by rotating anticlockwise until it
comes free.
• Remove the appropriate xing hole and conduit knockouts from the
back box.
• The back box provides IP66* protection. For this to be maintained,
suitably rated (minimum IP66) M20 cable glands must also be used
for cable entry/exit.
• Insert cable glands and attach to surface.
• Select required wiring option for required operation (see wiring sec-
tion 6.0).
• Select tone by conguring the DIP switches in the head unit. The
tone table can be found on page 12 of this booklet (Pre-set to tone
18).
• Relocate head onto mounted base unit & rotate clockwise until
locked in place.

6.0 Wiring
Table above indicates markings inside the base of the unit for wiring con-
nections.
Each unit must be powered via an approved Zener Barrier or Galvanic
Isolator whose entity parameters do no exceed:
Uo:28v, Io: 93mA, Po:660mW, Ci:0, Li:0
Operation of the Sounder Range can be taken from the table below:
Single Stage Alarm
Before nal installation of the IS-S-02 Sounder head unit onto the installed
base, the alarm tone must be set (see page 5).
To control the Sounder use either a switch in the safe area on either the
positive or negative lines into the Barrier, or by turning the power supply
on and off ,this is shown at the top of page 7.

Two Stage Alarm
When a two stage alarm is required it is possible to activate an alternate
tone by connecting the “♫/☼” (Beacon ground) pin to 0v (as detailed in
the table on page 5).
For this application, a barrier with 2 Diode return paths is required as
shown in the diagram below:
Switching between return paths for the 2 stage system will enable the
2nd tone. Second stage tone can be found in the table on page 12.

Galvanic Isolator
The IS-S-02 Intrinsically Safe Sounder Range is compatible for use with
suitably rated Galvanic Isolators. The Galvanic Isolators have the advan-
tage of not requiring an Isolated high integrity earth to be installed to con-
nect the Zener Barriers. These Isolators are often more expensive per
unit but may reduce installation costs as the earth is not required.
The IS-S-02 range can be powered by the Galvanic Isolators with match-
ing parameters as described in the entity parameters section of the in-
stallation sheet. The Sounder can be turned on and off either by using a
suitably placed switch in the positive or negative rails (switch must be of
suitable ratings if installed in the Hazardous area), or by turning the Gal-
vanic Isolator on and off.
As with the Zener barriers, the second stage alarm can be triggered when
using Galvanic Isolators, however an additional Intrinsically Safe relay is
required to make the additional connection.
As with all equipment in the system, the correct ratings must be main-
tained to keep the integrity and safety to the correct levels. The relay can
be switched to change between stage 1 and stage 2.
8 S00608 Issue 8

End of line monitoring is applicable to the Sounder Product. For this to
function correctly the resistor must be connected between the IN+ termi-
nal and the Sounder Negative Supply. A suitable Zener Barrier which can
allow reverse polarity monitoring to take place and a re panel compatible
with Intrinsically Safe products must also be used.
If required, an external switch can be wired in series with the (1) and/or (2)
connections to give independent remote change over from 1st stage to 2nd
stage tones. This switch must conform to Intrinsically Safe installation
(EN 60079-0:2012 + A11:2013, EN 60079-11:2012, EN 50303:2000).

7.0 Maintenance
Little or no maintenance is required during the normal working life of the
product. The Moash Intrinsically Safe enclosures are resistant to most
acids, alkalis and chemicals and have been designed to withstand severe
weather conditions. However it is suggested that continuous supervision
and periodic inspections may be required in relation to the requirements
of the installation as per IEC 60079-17.
To avoid the possibility of a potential electrostatic charge build up, it is
recommended that the exterior of the product is periodically wiped down
with a clean damp cloth. At this point a visual inspection is recommended
to ensure that the product is in good working order and no damage has
been sustained during its normal operation.
The enclosure is non-conducting and may generate an ignition-capable
level of electrostatic charge under certain extreme conditions. It is the
responsibility of the user to ensure that the equipment is installed in a
location where it will not be subjected to external conditions that might
cause a build-up of electrostatic charge on the surface of the unit.
8.0 Conditions for Use
The Moash Intrinsically Safe Signalling Range uses an enclosure rated
at IP66*. To ensure that this rating is maintained once installed, a suitable
cable gland must be used which matches this level of protection. The
base of the unit contains 3x M20 knockouts for wiring in purposes, and
only those required should be used. Any that are removed must have at
least an IP66 rated gland tted with cable passing through it or suitable
plug.
*= meets the IP33C requirements of EN 54-3:2001+A1:2002+A2:2006.
