Accessories | Partial Drop.Guidance for specification option: The barrier shall have the facility to deploy to a pre-determined position to allow escape and initial smoke containment. The partial close position shall be site adjustable with an adjustable wait time in the partial close position of up to 10 minutes Emergency Retract.Guidance for specification option: The barrier can have an emergency retract interface for escape and emergency access. The interface shall be volt free, normally open (close on operation). The signal required shall be momentary with a site adjustable retract time. The emergency retract facility shall be operational as long as there is primary / secondary power available. BMS Interface.Guidance for specification option: The barrier has volt free c/o contacts to indicate whether the barrier is fully open or fully closed. Obstruction Beam Detection Device.Guidance for specification option: An obstruction beam detection device, with on site adjustable time module between 5 minutes and 10 minutes, shall sound in the event of an obstruction being present as along as mains power is available. The obstruction device shall not stop the barrier from deploying it to its active position. Where sensory equipment for detecting obstructions to barrier assemblies is provided they shall conform with BS 8524-1 (5.8.5). Audio / Visual / Spoken Warning Unit.Guidance for specification option: The barrier has a volt free contact which indicates an active c/o (change over) contact which indicates an active alarm signal. An Audio / Visual / Spoken warning unit can be interfaced with this using power supplied by the primary / secondary source or via an external source. |
