T1000 MARINE FIRE DETECTION CONTROLLER
1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 SCOPE OF THE MANUAL
This manual contains the necessary information to enable trained personnel to install the T1000 Marine
Fire Detection controller. Installation consists of mounting the controller on the bulkhead, wiring and
connecting the required power supply to the controller, wiring of all field circuits into the controller but
without connecting the field circuits to the controller terminations. The integrity of the power supply
circuits must be checked before they are offered for connection to the controller. The installer should not
attempt to power up the controller, this must be left to the Commissioning Engineer.
WARNING:
THE EQUIPMENT REQUIRES A 220v 1PH 50Hz INPUT SUPPLY (OR A 24V DC ISOLATE LINE &
NEUTRAL SUPPLY). ALL APPROPRIATE SAFETY AND WIRING REGULATIONS MUST BE
OBSERVED. THIS EQUIPMENT CONTAINS VOLTAGE/STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES AND MUST NOT
BE SUBJECTED TO HIGH VOLTAGE INSULATION TESTS.
1.2 OVERVIEW
The T1000 Marine Series Fire Detection System of Controllers have been designed to satisfy SOLAS and
other Marine requirements.
The operation of the controller is effected by in-built Cause and Effect firmware. Each Marine fire
controller is supplied complete with a Cause and Effect configuration to satisfy Marine users.
The controllers are available with either 8 or 16 zone inputs. For details of the standard features provided
for each of the controllers refer to the following table.

Note:
1) If using 230V 1 phase Main Supply, ensure that the External Backup Supply does not
exceed 27.5V. This ensures that the controller operates from the Main Supply.
2) If using a 24V dc Main Supply, ensure that the External Backup Supply is 0.5V less than
the Main Supply voltage. This ensures that the controller operates from the Main
Supply.
No more than one detector at a time should be removed from a zone otherwise the ability of the system
to detect a fire could be seriously affected.

3. INSTALLATION
3.1 GENERAL
This section should be read fully before commencing the wiring and installation of the fire controller.
Fire detection installations should be designed according to SOLAS and Classification Society rules.
The choice of cables used is dependent on the installation and should comply with SOLAS and/or
Classification Society requirements.
Cables should be installed according to the current edition of the IEE Wiring Regulations (Regulations
for Electrical Installations, published by the Institution of Electrical Engineers [BS 7671 1992]) or Local
National Wiring Regulations.
Installation will consist of mounting the controller on the wall, wiring and connecting the required power
supply to the controller, wiring of all field circuits into the controller but without connecting the field
circuits to the controller terminations. The integrity of the power supply circuits and field circuits must
be checked before they are offered for connection to the controller. The installer should not attempt to
power up the controller, this must be left to the Commissioning Engineer.

The connection should be via an isolating protective device (ie a switched fused outlet) rated at 5 Amps,
reserved solely for the purpose as detailed in SOLAS. A plug and socket connection is unsatisfactory.
The isolating protective device should be painted red and labelled “FIRE ALARM : DO NOT SWITCH
OFF” and should be secure from unauthorised operation.
The isolating switch:
• Must be as close to the incoming supply as is practicably possible and be readily accessible.
• Should be secure from unauthorised operation.
WARNING:
FOR A SITE WHERE THE NEUTRAL OF THE MAINS SUPPLY CANNOT BE IDENTIFIED A
TWO-POLE ISOLATING SWITCH MUST BE USED WHICH DISCONNECTS BOTH POLES
SIMULTANEOUSLY.
WHERE THE NEUTRAL OF THE MAINS CAN BE IDENTIFIED, A SINGLE POLE ISOLATING SWITCH
MAY BE USED WHICH DISCONNECTS THE LIVE CONDUCTOR.
Note:
1) If the neutral of the mains supply is fused, a warning label must be affixed to the
controller to that effect.
2) A warning label must be affixed adjacent the mains cable entry or inside the controller
giving the location of the isolating switch.

WARNING:
THE INCOMING MAINS EARTH MUST BE CONNECTED TO THE SAFETY EARTH STUD (ENSURE
THAT THE MAINS EARTH LEAD WILL REMAIN CONNECTED TO THE SAFETY EARTH STUD IF THE
LIVE AND NEUTRAL LEADS ARE PULLED FROM THE MAINS CONNECTOR). THE POWER SUPPLY
EARTH WIRE MUST ALSO BE CONNECTED TO THE EARTH STUD.

T1000 MARINE FIRE DETECTION CONTROLLER
The 24V dc main connection should be made using (600V 105ºC) wire via an isolating protective device
conforming to applicable Standards (ie a 2-pole switch and fuse) rated at 10 Amps, reserved solely for
the purpose of supplying the T1000 Marine controller. A plug and socket is unsatisfactory. The isolating
device should be labelled ‘FIRE ALARM : DO NOT SWITCH OFF’ and should be secure from
unauthorised operation.
Note:
1) If using internal backup batteries, the main dc supply voltage must be 26 to 28V to
ensure that the controller is able to maintain the batteries in a charged condition.
2) If using an external backup supply, the main dc supply voltage should be at least 0.5V
higher than the backup supply to ensure the controller operates from the main supply.
3) The 24V dc supply must be isolated from earth or the controller will continuously report
an earth fault condition.
The negative (black) battery lead from the power supply also contains a temperature sensor which must
be affixed to the top surface of the battery using the self adhesive pad supplied after the controller has
been commissioned and is ready for hand over, see diagram below.
Connect the batteries to the Backup Supply connection block on the side of the Power Supply chassis as
shown in Figs. 6 & 7 observing the correct polarity:
Red wire to the Positive (Red) connection of the battery
Black wire to the Negative (black) connection of the battery

The external backup 24V dc supply connection should be made using (600V 105ºC) wire via an isolating
protective device conforming to SOLAS Standards (ie a 2-pole switch and fuse) rated at 10 Amps,
reserved solely for the purpose of supplying the T1000 Marine controller. A plug and socket is
unsatisfactory. The isolating device should be labelled ‘FIRE ALARM : DO NOT SWITCH OFF’
and should be secure from unauthorised operation.
Note:
1) If using 230V 1 phase Main Supply, ensure that the External Backup Supply does not
exceed 27.5V. This ensures that the controller operates from the Main Supply.
2) If using a 24V dc P:rimary Supply, ensure that the External Backup Supply is 0.5V less
than the Primary Supply voltage. This ensures that the controller operates from the
Primary Supply.
3) The 24V d.c. supply must be isolated from earth or the controller will continuously report
an earth fault.

Four, separately fused, monitored output circuits are provided (of which any number can be used for
sounders). Each output is separately fused at 1 amp.
Sounder output circuits should be wired as continuous pairs without spurs or tees.
An end of line device, as detailed in the “Technical Specification” Section, should be fitted to each
sounder circuit as shown in Fig. 3.9.
Refer to the individual sounder manufacturers data for details on sounder terminals and wiring.
An end of line device, as detailed in the “Technical Specification” Section, should be fitted to the end of
each zone circuit (Fig. 3.10). Unused zones require an end of line device connecting across the zone input
terminals to prevent an open circuit fault.

The circuit should be wired as shown in Fig. 3.11. I.S. installations must be installed to a BASEEFA or
other I.S. certified body certificate (eg Thorn Security System 601, Certificate No. Ex82254).
