EXI800
MX IS LOOP INTERFACE MODULE
514.001.063
INPUT VOLTAGE: 20-40 VDC
MAXIMUM OUTPUT VOLTAGE: 26.5 VDC
The Tyco EXI800 MX IS Loop Interface Module is a dedicated interface component designed to extend and integrate intrinsically safe detector loops within marine fire alarm systems. Acting as the bridge between the main fire detection panel and field devices on IS-rated loops, this module plays a critical role in maintaining signal integrity and system continuity. Its compatibility with intrinsically safe installations makes it particularly relevant in hazardous and monitored areas aboard vessels where fire detection reliability is a SOLAS-mandated requirement.
Key Features
✓ Functions as a loop interface module for intrinsically safe (IS) fire detection circuits, enabling compliant integration of field devices within the EXI800 system architecture.
✓ Rated for an input voltage range of 20–40 VDC with a maximum output voltage of 26.5 VDC, as specified in the original product data.
✓ Designed for use within the Tyco EXI800 MX fire alarm platform; compatibility with specific panels or controllers beyond this system is subject to confirmation.
✓ Suited for installation in controlled onboard environments where intrinsically safe loop separation is required; exact mounting configuration depends on the system layout.
✓ As a field-replaceable interface module, it supports scheduled maintenance and fault rectification without requiring full system downtime, subject to shipboard commissioning procedures.
Marine Applications
✓ Fire detection systems aboard commercial cargo vessels, tankers, and bulk carriers requiring intrinsically safe loop segregation.
✓ Hazardous area monitoring installations on offshore support vessels and platform supply vessels where IS-rated equipment is mandated.
✓ Central fire alarm panel loop expansion on passenger ferries, RoPax vessels, and cruise ships with large zone counts.
✓ Engine room and machinery space fire detection networks where signal isolation between safe and hazardous zones is required.
✓ Retrofit and upgrade projects on vessels transitioning to or maintaining Tyco EXI800 MX fire alarm infrastructure.
