Product Overview
The Very Early Smoke Detection Apparatus (VESDA) Peripheral Module (Model VPM)
and the VESDA High-Level Interface Kit (Model VESDA-HLI-KIT) are all optional
modules that work in combination to provide bi-directional communication between
the Desigo Fire Safety Modular system fire alarm control panel (FACP) and multiple
VESDA detection networks for the following types of VESDA detectors:
▪ E-Series VEU
▪ FirePLUS
▪ LaserCOMPACT
▪ E-Series VEP
▪ LaserSCANNER
▪ LaserINDUSTRIAL
▪ E-Series VES
▪ LaserFOCUS
▪ FireTRACER
Model VPM allows each Desigo Fire Safety
Modular system FACP to annunciate ‘Alert’ |
‘Action’ | ‘Fire 1’ and ‘Fire 2’ levels, as well as
provide ‘faults’ from select detectors on a
connected VESDA network.
Additionally, Model VPM allows a Model
FCM2041-U2 Operator Interface (OI) to
annunciate detailed Trouble-event codes
sent by VESDAnet. When used with a
VESDA LaserSCANNER, a Model FCM2041-
U2 OI displays the events to an individual
pipe.
The VPM Mounting plate (Model VPM-MP) allows the
mounting of one (1) Model VPM and two (2) of
Model VESDA-HLI-KIT inside a standard Desigo Fire
Safety Modular System Model CAB1 | Model CAB2 or
Model CAB3 enclosure. Model VPM-MP utilizes two
(2) module spaces on a single row of each
enclosure.
The VESDAnet Socket Card provides the terminals to
connect the VESDAnet field wiring as well as the
24VDC power for the high-level interface (HLI)
board.
The card is mounted on a Model VPM-MP stand-offs.
Additional stand-offs are available on Model VPM-MP
should a second card be needed.
