3.13 814RB RELAY BASE
3.13.1 GENERAL
The 814RB detector base is designed as a low cost output device. The relay is controlled by
the detector which is plugged into the base, but the operation of the relay can be quite
separate from the operation of the detector. (Refer to section
3.3.)
The 814RB Relay Base provides two sets of volt-free, change-over contacts capable of
switching ancillary equipment rated at up to 1A resistive @ 30Vdc. One set is labelled NO,
C, NC (for normally open, common, and normally closed.) The other set is labelled 1 for NC,
2 for C, and 3 for NO. The terminals accept a single cable of up to 2.5 sqmm. Relay
operation is controlled by the MX4428 via an output from the detector. Hence, a detector
must be fitted to the base in order for the relay to operate as the relay base does not have
its own address.
The 814RB may be plugged into a MUB standard base, 5B standard base, or 5BI isolator
base, or mounted directly on the ceiling or wall.
