Text Box: Each of the installations are to be installed in series The protected side goes toward the equipment to be

protected. To maintain proper continuity, exit on the terminal screw that is directly opposite, A to A and B to B.

These units may be affixed to wall or other mounting surface by screw holes at either end of TVSS housing.

The screw MUST BE CONNECTED to the nearest unified ground to avoid possible ground loops.


Bell Circuits: 	Install the FA 30 VB-BH or FA60 VBNC for Bell Circuits with the protected side facing the PC Board.

Zone Circuits: 	Install the FA 24 for Zones with the protected side facing the PC Board

Power Supply: 	Install the 120HWCP 20CB with the load side (protected) facing the power supply.

Communication:  Install the DLT TOS 30 for the data line and the DLT TOS 200 for the tip and ring on the RJ3 IX application.

Grounding:          Attach FA units ground wire to 120HWCP20CB line side (unprotected side) ground. This will provide an alternative path 
                            way to ground.

Your fire alarm must have one reference to a unified ground to avoid ground loops. If you require technical
assistance please call 888-471-1038.
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Each of the installations are to be installed in series.  The protected side goes towards the equipment to be protected.   To maintain proper continuity, exit on the terminal screw that is directly opposite, A to A and B to B.  These units may  be affixed to wall or other mounting surface  by screw holes at either end of TVSS housing.  The GROUND WIRE MUST BE CONNECTED to the nearest unified ground to avoid possible ground loops.  The best source for unified ground is at the line side of the 120HWCP20CB.  This will also provide an alternative path flow around your panel to ground.  A special DDual 2WDTB/G 5V is available for PC board to Case Ground application.  The purpose of the DDual 2WDTB/G5V is to eliminate surge from the ground side up through the case into the PC board due to near by lightning ground strikes.

 

Initiating Circuits: (Class A) requires two FA24V, (Class B) requires one FA24V.  Install the FA24 for Zones with the protected side facing the PC Board.  Tie ground to the line side of 120HWCP20CB (unprotected).

 

Notification Appliances: (30 volts +3 amps) requires FA30VBHB, (34.4 volts +3 amps) requires FA60VBNC .  Install the FA30 or FA60 for the Notification Appliance with the protected side facing the PC Board. Tie ground on line side of 120HWCP20CB.

 

Power Supply:  Install the 120HWCP20CB with the load side (protected ) facing the power supply. Install all ground wires from low voltage surge suppressors zones, notification appliances, and PC board ground to line side of 120HWCP20CB (unprotected).

 

PC Board Ground: If ground wire is tied to from screw on PC board to Case, a DDual2WDTB/G5V  is available.  Install the DDual2WDTB/G5V with the protected side facing the PC board, and ground wire to line side of 120HWCP20CB (unprotected).

 

Communication: Install the DLTTOS 30V for the data line and the DLTTOS 200V (two required) for the tip and ring on the RJ31X application.Tie the ground back to the line side of 120HWCP20CB (unprotected).

 

 

 
 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Text Box: The TFX panel is experiencing multiple ground loops.  The TFX panel is not getting damaged, but the modules connected at the water source are excellent surge suppression devices.  You can blow out one or two modules as the high voltage, low current is trying to make it’s way to the TFX ground.

Recommendation:
Install an E/Clips  120HWCP20CB in-line series three stage surge suppressor on the TFX main panel.  The junction box on the line side of the 120HWCP20CB will be your path of least resistance to ground.

Recommendation # 2
Install an E/Clips FA24VB three stage in-line series surge suppressor on both the input and output of each module of each building including the TFX panel.  At the TFX panel, ground the FA24VB to the line side of the 120HWCP20CB which will provide an alternative path flow to ground.  

At each building, ground the FA24VB at a known ground , I.e. cold water pipe.

It is likely that you will blow the surge suppressors, but it will take a long time before one will blow.

If a surge suppressor does blow, the unit has a life time warranty, and will be replaced at no charge from the manufacture.

 

As it stands, there seems to be no possible way to eliminate the ground loops.  What is required is that you low voltage surge suppressors, and the AC surge suppressors be able to with-stand 6000 volts at 3000 amps impulse and keep ticking.  Your let through voltage must be no more then 238 volts AC and 34.4 volts DC.

I am making recommendations regarding grounding, based on ground loops. 

I do recommend if at all possible to provide a shield wire to one grounding source f

or all applications, but in this case it is not possible. 

 

I would like to speak to you more on this subject before this is finished.

 

I hope you have a clear picture what needs to be bought, and installed.

 

This is only a Sample of the last recommendation I did.
