PS1400 Sounder - Installation Instructions
Pertronic Industries Ltd 10300- PS1400 Sounder Issue 4.0 20220331
Overview
The PS1400 Sounder is one of a range of sounders manufactured byPertronic Industries.
The PS1400 Sounder is a modified PS1 sounder and generates tones equivalent to the
System Sensor PA400 sounder. The PS1400 is NOT AS2220 compliant.
The PS1400 Sounders have a maximum sound pressure level of 83dBA. The sound level
may be adjusted by a Volume control.
PS1400 Sounders are normally connected to the monitored Bell or sounder circuit of a
Fire Alarm Panel and are activated when the sounder circuit voltage polarity is reversed
in the ‘Alarm’ state.
The PS1400 Sounders may be mounted in a standard single-gang electrical flush-box
fitting, and are supplied with a protective plastic cover for installation and building
construction use.

Operation
The panel Bell circuit connects to the PS1400 Sounder as shown below.
Bell terminals ‘+’ and ‘-’ connect to the corresponding Sounder ‘+’ and ‘-’ terminals.
If the Bells are not active,the panel monitors theBell circuit byapplying a negative voltage
to the PS1400 ‘+’ terminal. The quiescent current drawn by the PS1400 under this
condition is less than 0.4A.
When the panel Bell circuit activates, the panel Bell circuit voltage reverses (applying
positive voltage to the PS1400 ‘+’ terminal), sounding the PS1400. The ‘Alert’terminal has
no effect on a PS1400.

Some bell driver circuits provide a pulsed signal to the PS1400 to give an alternative
‘Alert’ signal using the ‘Evacuation’tone.
The sequence is: 3.75 seconds –Evacuation tone (one cycle)
12 seconds –silence
3.75 seconds –Evacuation tone
12 seconds –silence (repeated).
