Steps o.k. not n/a

o.k.

1 Smoke Collectors
Check for location and secure mounting of the smoke collectors in the monitored
areas.
2 Pipe and Hose Connections
Check all pipe and hose connections for secure fastening and support.
3 Assignment of Pipe and Hose Connections
Check the assignment of pipe and hose connections to the hose fittings of the smoke
detection system. Incorrect connections will cause incorrect alarm indication in a fire.
4 Cleaning the Pipes *)
Thoroughly clean all pipes with compressed air. The pipes must be free of rust, dirt and
other particles.
WARNING: Before doing this, ensure that the flexible hoses are disconnected from the
smoke detection panel and extension, because otherwise the pressure switches which
monitor the air flow could be damaged. See section 5.3.9.
5 Fastening of the Smoke Detection System
Check all installations in the smoke detection system, including the fan unit, for
secure mounting.
6 Cable Connections
Check all cable connections for proper position and correct connection.
7 Connection of Cable Shields
Check the correct connection of the shields for the cables to the repeater panel(s),
relay box and extension panel(s). See sections 3.3 and 3.4.
8 Earth Connection
Check the earth connection.
9 Terminal Resistors
Check the 120 Ohm terminal resistors at the ends of the bus cable.
See diagram SDS02.080 in the appendix.
10 Turning on the Smoke Detection System
Set the 3-way valves to position “smoke detection system”. Ensure that no painting or
welding is going on in the monitored areas (contamination hazard for the smoke
detectors).
Turn on the main and auxiliary power supplies. The line and address number setting
shown during the start message must match the actual line and address number (see
section 4.2)
Acknowledge any fault warnings with a quick press of the ACCEPT button and, if
necessary, remedy the reported fault (see fault table section 5.2).
11 Lamp and Buzzer Test **)
Carry out a lamp and buzzer test. For this, press the ACCEPT button not longer than 6
seconds. All lamps, the background lighting for the LC display and the buzzer must be
on while the button is pressed.
12 Fan Test *)
Check whether the active fan is drawing air. Then check the second fan by activating
the special function “Switch Fans” (see section 4.8.3).
To test the automatic switch over function open upper doors of all SDS-panels to
reduce air pressure which simulates a motor failure.
WARNING: Do not remove fuses F2 – F5 while fans are running.
*) This test shall be repeated every 3 month **) This test/step shall be repeated daily

3 Installation and Initial Start-up

13 Power Supply
Check function of main and emergency power monitoring. For this, switch off the
main and the emergency power supply one at a time. A corresponding fault warning
“FAULT: Main Supply” or “FAULT: Emergency Supply” must appear.
14 Air Flow Monitoring *)
Close each 3-way valve one at a time. After a few seconds a corresponding fault
warning “FAULT: Airflow Line -x-” must appear for each line.
15 Smoke Test *)
Carry out a smoke test for each smoke collector. For this, bring a smoke generator in the
vicinity of each point in the cargo spaces where air is drawn. A suitable smoke generator is
available on request (part no. B30.001). Check the fire alarm at the smoke detection panel
and at the repeater panel(s).
For the 3-monthly-check, cigarette smoke can alternatively be blown directly into the
flexible hose at smoke detection panel. Important: Smoke must be present at the
smoke detector for several seconds. Close appropriate 3-way-valve to prevent quick
removal of smoke during test.
16 External Fire Alarm
Let a fire alarm go for at least 2 minutes without acknowledging it. The LCD will then
display: GENERAL EMERGENCY ALARM. An external fire alarm must be
activated.
17 Final Test *)
Reset the fire alarm and ensure that no fault warnings are indicated. When no fault and no
fire alarms are showed any more, the smoke detection system is ready for operation.
WARNING: In case of any spray paint or welding works in cargo holds the SDS-system
shall be switched off to avoid soiling of optical components.
Removing the transformer fuse F1 from the power supply module can take the system out
of operation.
*) This test shall be repeated every 3 month

5.2 Display of Fault Warnings

Nearly all possible system faults of the smoke detection system SDS-48 will be indicated on the display.
Please find hereafter a description of all possible fault indications.

5.2.1 Airflow Fault

If the airflow in detection line is too weak, the following fault warning will be issued:

FAULT: Airflow Line -x-

Possible causes:

• Pipe of detection line no. x is blocked and must be cleaned.

• 3-way-valve of detection line no. x is in position “CO2-extinguishing system”.
• Pressure switch of detection line no. x is defective.

For fault finding please proceed as follows:

• Remove the flexible hose from the appropriate detection line. If now the airflow fault indication for this
detection line disappears, the pipe of this detection line must be cleaned. Refer to section 5.3.9.
• If the fault is still present, open the housing in which the pressure switch of the detection line is located.
Disconnect the cable from the pressure switch at the sensor connection module in the middle of the
housing. Connect a small wire instead of the cable at the sensor connection module (short circuit). If the
airflow fault indication for this detection line disappears now, the pressure switch must be replaced.
Refer to section 5.3.1.

5.2.2 Polluted Smoke Detector

If a smoke detector is so dirty that its diagnosis value is outside the range for clean smoke detectors (less
than 5 or more than 45), the following fault warning will be issued:

FAULT: Dirt in Line -x-

To ensure proper functioning of the smoke detection line, the pipe of the detection line and the appropriate
smoke detector should be cleaned as soon as possible. See sections 5.3.2, 5.3.3 and 5.3.9.

5.2.3 Defective Smoke Detector

If the smoke detection panel cannot get in contact with the smoke detector in detection line no. x, the
following fault warning will be issued:

FAULT: Smoke Detector Line -x-

Possible causes:

• smoke detector of detection line no. x is missing.

• smoke detector of detection line no. x is defective.

To correct the fault, exchange the smoke detector.

5.2.4 Data Transfer Fault

If the smoke detection panel cannot get in contact with the repeater panel or relay box at address -x- , the
following fault warning will be issued:

FAULT: Data Transfer Address -x-

Possible causes:

• Repeater panel or relay box at address No. x not connected or defective.

• Repeater panel or relay box not set to address -x- (refer to section 6).
• RS-485-bus cable at repeater panel or relay box not connected correctly.

In case of a repeater panel at address No. x, this repeater panel will issue following fault warning:

FAULT: Data Transfer

(Checksum Faults: xxx)

„xxx“ indicates the cumulative number of checksum faults (data transmission failures). If the number of
checksum faults „xxx“ increases rapidly, the wires of the bus-cable on terminals 19 and 20 are reversed.

If the adjusted address No of a repeater panel is higher than the highest address-no. that has been adjusted
during the system configuration, the repeater panel issues for example the following fault warning (this
warning will not be issued on other devices):

FAULT: Local address exceeds range of 4

In this example the highest permissible address No. in the system configuration is 4. Consequently the
adjusted address No. of the repeater panel is higher than 4. To settle the fault, adjust the correct address No.
at the repeater panel (refer to section 6.1).

5.2.5 Power Supply Failure

If the main power supply fails, the following fault warning will be issued:

FAULT: Main Supply

If the emergency power supply fails, the following fault warning will be issued:

FAULT: Emergency Supply

5.2.6 Failure of Fan Unit

If fan no.1 fails and no airflow will be sucked , the smoke detection system automatically switches over to
the standby fan. The following information will be given:

CHECK: Fan -1-

Possible causes:
• Fuse(s) for the fan is (are) blown. Fault correction: Fix the cause and replace fuse(s).
• On of the two fans is defect. Repair or replace the fan module.
• All 3-way-valves had been shut briefly and the smoke detection system assumes a failure of the fan. In
this case the information can be deleted by activating the reset function or by manually switching over
the fans.

If both fans fail, the following clue will be given:

FAULT: Airflow all Lines

CHECK: Valves and Fans

Possible causes:
• Both fans out of order. Repair or replace the fan unit.
• All 3-way-valves are shut. The fault warning disappears as soon as at least one 3-way-valve has been
opened.

This information will also be given, if all 3-way-valves are closed. The condition for this information is, that
no airflow on any detection line will be detected.

5.2.7 Contrast of Display

If the contrast of the display is too weak or too strong, it can be readjusted with the contrast adjuster on the
rear side of the control module. See also the photo in section 6.2.
