Model ABHW-4BZ

Intelligent Audible Base

Introduction

The Model ABHW-4BZ audible base from Siemens Industry,

Inc. consists of a standard base combined with an audible

device. It is an intelligent supervised audible base which

provides 6 selectable tone patterns, 2 volume levels and 2

different power types for alarm (loop power or external power)

by using system configuration tool when ABHW-4BZ used with

the FD-UL compatible detectors (refer to “Compatible fire

alarm control panels”, “Compatible detector ”,“Detector

Placement” and “Tone and Volume Selection”). The ABHW-

4BZ audible bases in the same device loop are fully

synchronized with FD-UL detectors and also support RL-HC,

RL-HW remote lamp. The ABHW-4BZ provides Steady,

Temporal 3, Temporal 4, Temporal 4 low power, March time

120 and Canadian March time 30.

ABHW-4BZ is fully compatible with all Siemens addressable

detectors (see Compatible detectors section) and recognizes

the detector type automatically.

Application

note

The ABHW-4BZ is a UL268 & ULC-S529 listed smoke detector

supplementary device which combines detector base and

audible device functions. It meets or exceeds 85dB at 10 foot

audibility requirement as specified in UL268. When used in

conjunction with listed, compatible Siemens equipment, the

ABHW-4BZ

may be used in lieu of single/multiple station smoke

alarms to achieve enhanced, system-level functionality.

The ABHW-4BZ

can also meet requirement specified in UL464,

UL2075 and ULC-

525 except 520Hz requirements for “Sleeping

Area”.

The alarm current of ABHW-4BZ CAN’T be energized by a 24V FWR power supply. The maximum number of ABHW-4BZ is related to the max. current rating and the power line resistance of the external power supplies applied on the ABHW-4BZ. Refer to the related installation instructions of the auxiliary power supply.

If questions arise regarding detector placement, it is extremely important that the drawings provided or approved by Siemens Industry, Inc., or by its authorized distributors be followed! The detector placements shown on these drawings were chosen after a careful evaluation of all facets of protecting the area. Environmental factors such as air current, temperature, humidity, air pressure, and the nature of the fire load are carefully considered.

APPENDIX: Max. number of loop powered ABHW-4BZ audible bases in one loop 1. The max. number of loop powered ABHW-4BZ audible bases in one device loop depends on the available load current for ABHW-4BZ audible bases. The available load current for loop powered ABHW-4BZs (I) can be calculated by: I = Imax – Id In which, Imax is the max load current in one loop under the worst case d the total load current for the scenario with 50 Ωiscable resistance. I devices loaded in the loop.
