Clunid FMZ6000 - Control Panel

The new fire detection and suppression control panel, Clunid FMZ6000

Safer. Easier. Universal.

In fire de­tec­tion and ex­tin­guish­ing con­trol pan­els, the in­form­a­tion from all fire de­tec­tion and mon­it­or­ing ele­ments comes to­gether. They re­ceive events, eval­u­ate them and auto­mat­ic­ally man­age the ne­ces­sary ac­tions in a tar­geted man­ner: from alert­ing, man­aging and test­ing ex­tin­guish­ing sys­tems to the situ­ational con­trol of build­ing ser­vices de­pend­ing on the course of the fire. Fire de­tec­tion and ex­tin­guish­ing con­trol pan­els thus form the heart of fire pro­tec­tion.

However, there are often re­stric­tions in the op­er­a­tion and use of fire de­tec­tion con­trol pan­els. On the one hand older sys­tems es­pe­cially often no longer meet today’s tech­nical re­quire­ments. On the other hand the op­er­a­tion of a fire de­tec­tion and ex­tin­guish­ing con­trol panel re­quires par­tic­u­lar skills. In stress­ful situ­ations even ex­per­i­enced people can quickly make er­rors in in­ter­pret­a­tion and op­er­a­tion, with ser­i­ous con­sequences. Minimax has the ap­pro­pri­ate solu­tion: Clunid FMZ6000.

High levels of op­er­at­ing safety

The new and up to date con­trol panel tech­no­logy has a power­ful per­form­ance with gen­er­ously sized event and his­tory memory. The sys­tem stands for the highest level of avail­ab­il­ity. In the Clunid FMZ6000, be­sides the re­dund­ancy (re­quired as stand­ard) of the cent­ral sig­nal pro­cessing unit, the pro­cessors on all func­tional mod­ules and zone con­trol boards are also im­ple­men­ted re­dund­antly. This makes break­downs and down­times a thing of the past  without hav­ing to build in com­pon­ents twice and un­ne­ces­sar­ily waste space. Even when re­pla­cing in­di­vidual func­tion mod­ules, op­er­a­tion can con­tinue without a break thanks to hot plug in­teg­ra­tion. Still not enough though. The newly in­teg­rated Lo­gic­Man­ager pre­vents er­rors by plaus­ib­il­ity checks right from con­fig­ur­a­tion and thus in­creases the de­pend­ab­il­ity of the total sys­tem.

Vari­ous areas of ap­plic­a­tion

The Clunid FMZ6000 meets the re­quire­ments for dif­fer­ent ap­plic­a­tions. It is used among other things:

• As a pure fire de­tec­tion con­trol panel
• As a com­bined fire de­tec­tion and ex­tin­guish­ing con­trol panel for gas and spark ex­tin­guish­ing sys­tems
• As a mon­it­or­ing panel for water based sup­pres­sion sys­tems
• For the ac­tiv­a­tion and mon­it­or­ing of pilot op­er­ated dry alarm valve sta­tions
• For the ac­tiv­a­tion of hy­drant sys­tems in Loop tech­no­logy
• For the ac­tiv­a­tion of FSX valves (hy­drant tech­no­logy) with and without ex­ternal re­set­ting
• As a con­trol panel for com­plex fire in­cid­ent­matrices for act­ive prin­ciple test

Simple hand­ling of the fire alarm panel

Users ap­pre­ci­ate the op­er­a­tion via the full color 7" touch dis­play. User nav­ig­a­tion is in­tu­it­ive thanks to the tile design, func­tional con­di­tions being visu­al­ized via the dis­play color and mes­sages being dis­played in clear text. Ad­di­tional func­tions can be eas­ily man­aged by pro­gram­mable area con­trol pan­els. Even the leg­ally re­quired doc­u­ment­a­tion be­comes sim­pler. The Lo­gic­Man­ager con­fig­ur­a­tion soft­ware auto­mat­ic­ally gen­er­ates gen­eral sys­tem doc­u­ment­a­tion. So when mak­ing changes to con­fig­ur­a­tion and use, doc­u­ment­a­tion be­comes child’s play. Fur­ther­more, func­tional tests for re­fur­bish­ment or main­ten­ance meas­ures are user­guided and se­curely saved.

Mod­u­lar design of the Clunid FMZ6000

As stand­ard the Clunid FMZ6000 is fit­ted with a 7" touch dis­play in­clud­ing group dis­plays, a cent­ral and re­dund­ant sig­nal pro­cessing unit, power sup­ply unit and bat­tery sup­ply. It is pre­pared for up to 80 func­tion mod­ules and 27 zone con­trol pan­els

• Sig­nal pro­cessing unit: The con­trol panel tech­no­logy is char­ac­ter­ized by rapid re­sponses and power­ful per­form­ance. The sig­nal pro­cessing unit is fit­ted with re­dund­ant pro­cessors and thus re­duces the prob­ab­il­ity of fail­ure to a min­imum.
• Func­tion mod­ules: De­pend­ing on re­quire­ments, ad­di­tional func­tion mod­ules are avail­able from input mod­ules such as con­ven­tional de­tector or loop AP via out­put mod­ules such as con­trol groups or re­lays up to com­mu­nic­a­tion mod­ules such as fire bri­gade peri­phery or net­work­ing. A suit­able mod­ule is avail­able for every ap­plic­a­tion.
• Power sup­ply unit: The Clunid FMZ6000 can be used world­wide. The power sup­ply units used come with ex­ten­ded voltage range input and cover vari­ous sup­ply voltages. The voltage out­put and con­trol group mod­ules are provided with elec­tronic fuses and are thus UL and FM-con­form­ant.
• DC/DC con­verter: A DC/DC con­verter can be op­tion­ally in­teg­rated which sta­bil­izes the out­put voltage from the con­trol groups and thus provides for a con­stant out­put voltage even in bat­tery op­er­a­tion or dur­ing tem­per­at­ure fluc­tu­ations. This is often ne­ces­sary for stand­ard com­pon­ents such as horns or solen­oid valves without ad­equate ex­ten­ded voltage range input.
• Hous­ing sizes: All com­pon­ents can be fit­ted in the four stand­ard hous­ing sizes D04, D14, D21 and D40. These can be in­di­vidu­ally ex­ten­ded and offer suf­fi­cient scope for a con­fig­ur­a­tion that meets your needs.

Cross-gen­er­a­tional net­work­ing

Clunid Con­nect en­ables the cross-gen­er­a­tional net­work­ing of Minimax fire de­tec­tion and sup­pres­sion con­trol panel sys­tem tech­no­lo­gies. Via a hard­ware and soft­ware in­ter­face, ex­ist­ing sys­tems can be eas­ily net­worked and, if ne­ces­sary, ex­ten­ded. Loc­a­tion-in­de­pend­ent, cent­ral­ized, cross-net­work con­trol al­lows all fire alarm con­trol pan­els in the sys­tem to be con­veni­ently and eas­ily op­er­ated.

Step by step:
Flex­ible and ad­apt­able to cus­tomer re­quire­ments and eco­nomic cir­cum­stances, Clunid Con­nect en­ables easy in­teg­ra­tion of ex­ist­ing net­works into the Clunid sys­tem tech­no­logy and thus al­lows for a gradual mod­ern­iz­a­tion of fire de­tec­tion and sup­pres­sion con­trol pan­els.

Easy, in­tu­it­ive, and cent­ral­ized:
Clunid Op­er­ator en­ables cross-net­work con­trol, al­low­ing for easy and con­veni­ent op­er­a­tion of FMZ 5000 and FMZ6000 con­trol pan­els from a cent­ral point. It is no longer ne­ces­sary to in­stall a sep­ar­ate con­trol panel that only serves as a re­peater panel. The UCC user in­ter­face is in­spired by the look and feel of Clunid FMZ6000 and re­quires no major trans­ition on the part of the cus­tomer. Op­er­a­tion there­fore re­mains clear, in­tu­it­ive, easy, and be­comes cent­ral­ized.

Fu­ture proof:
Clunid Op­er­ator en­ables the mod­ern­iz­a­tion and con­ver­sion of fire alarm con­trol pan­els to the FMZ6000, thus provid­ing the found­a­tion for im­proved sup­port via WebAc­cess in the fu­ture. Driven by con­stant tech­no­lo­gical pro­gress, which makes con­tinu­ous mod­ern­iz­a­tion and ex­ten­sion in build­ing and safety tech­no­logy an ab­so­lute ne­ces­sity, the latest gen­er­a­tion of con­trol pan­els of­fers the ideal pre­par­a­tion for the fu­ture.

Clunid Gate­way and Clunid Op­er­ator:
As the hard­ware in­ter­face, Clunid Gate­way con­nects the vari­ous net­works with one an­other. By means of
Clunid Op­er­ator, the in­ter­face is visu­al­ized on a sep­ar­ate op­er­at­ing panel, thus en­abling loc­a­tion-in­de­pend­ent, cent­ral­ized con­trol and op­er­a­tion.
