i-Zone - Model iZ-T25 -Touch Screen Control Panel

The i-Zone Touch Control Panel is suitable for wall mounting. It is constructed from mild steel, and has a durable powder coated finish.It features a 7 inch full colour LCD Touch screen, and is capable of monitoring the full range of ‘Aqualarm’ detectors for water, fuel oils/chemicals, temperature, humidity, refrigerant gases and 2 x pulsed flow meters for incoming mains water supplies. 25 detectors/zones can be monitored via the current addressable CAN network, with planned future expansion to a RS485 network and a 433 MHz wireless network.

The Control Panel has 3 levels of use, Level 1 User level, Level 2 PIN protected Operator level, and Level 3 PIN protected Engineer access. In any alarm condition a 97db (at 1 metre) audible alarm will sound. The default detector identification is ‘Zone 1’, ‘Zone 2’ etc, however these can be customer programmed to read site specific locations, eg ‘Zone 1 Comms Room AC Unit 1, using the touch screen keyboard. Each zone can be independently configured to automatically trigger panel relays, beacon & sounder outputs, and to enable, or disable the panel and detector sounders. The Control Panel can store 100 events logs, which are protected by a non-volatile memory.

The system has an automatic Daylight saving setting to change times twice a year in line with UK protocols. This can be deactivated for export models. The Control Panel can also monitor a maximum of 5 ZLM-500 modules (max100/m network cable), before a separate power booster box is required, this will result in a single system monitoring 2500 metres of detecting cable. With this type of detector connected, in an alarm condition the display will show a meterage reading accurate to +/- 1 metre to the point of contact water has made with the cable. Features of the Control Panel include a MUTE button, ISOLATE detector button, and RESET button. The SHOW ME feature allows the user to view a ‘pinch to zoom’ electronic map of the location of the alarm. A HELP button will display information to aid users in understanding information being displayed. Detector /Zone parameters can be adjusted/set/changed by level 2 & 3 users. The system is fitted with 2 x sealed rechargeable lead acid batteries to support the system in a mains power down/switch over periods. When power/mains is reinstated the system will automatically restart. For remote signalling the Control Panel is supplied with the following outputs as standard: - MODBUS TCP/IP, five-zone relay contacts, which can be level 2&3 programmed to signal with any zone, 12v powered contacts to activate a sounder/beacon, repeater panels, 12 & 24v powered auxiliary outputs, and a 24v @ 8 amp relay for activation of a flow meter solenoid valve (note – this is NOT a powered relay). For safety, the Control Panel is fitted with a key operated door lock and ‘Power off’ door switch.
