Hochiki Addressable Manual Call Point with Short-Circuit Isolator, ESP, Red HCP-E(SCI)
About this product
The Hochiki HCP-E(SCI) is an analogue addressable manual call point with an integral short-circuit isolator, for fire alarm loops that use Hochiki's ESP protocol. It suits installers of ESP systems. It has a non-frangible element fitted as standard, which means no glass to break, and a bi-coloured LED that shows its state.
Key features
- Helps a loop survive a fault – integral short-circuit isolator
- Shows a short at a glance – the LED will show amber when a short-circuit is present
- Clear when operated – the LED is continuously lit and shows red when the device is operated
- No glass to clear up – non-frangible element fitted as standard (conforms to EN54)
- Checks itself – a built in test function initiated by the control panel
- Easy to test by hand – a test key in the underside of the unit
- Certified for its job – LPCB Approved to EN54
For installers
- Power: Operating Voltage 17–41 VDC. Quiescent Current 350 µA (max), 250 µA (typ). Alarm Current 10.0 mA (max), 5 mA (typ).
- Mounting: flush onto any standard UK single switch/socket box having 60mm horizontal fixing centres and a recommended minimum depth of 25mm, or surface with the SR back box.
- Cabling: two terminal blocks for the loop wiring. The loop cable diameter should not exceed 2.5mm 2.
- Compatibility: Hochiki's ESP analogue addressable protocol only. Address it with the TCH-B200 and programming lead PL-3. Check the panel's own documentation for protocol support.
- Standards: LPCB Approved to EN54. Ingress Protection Rating IP24, for indoor use only.
Frequently asked questions
Which protocol does it use?
Hochiki's ESP analogue addressable protocol. It is only compatible with the Enhanced Systems Protocol (ESP).
How is it addressed?
With a TCH-B200 Hand Held Programmer and PL-3 programming lead, with the loop not powered. Each device must have a unique address before operation.
Can it be surface mounted?
Yes, with the SR Back Box.
What does an amber LED mean?
A short-circuit is present. The LED switches to red if the unit is activated.
Can it be used outdoors?
No. These call points are for indoor use only, even though the rating is IP24.
How is it reset after activation?
With the supplied test key. Insert it at the bottom of the unit until the lower cover opens, then slide the cover back up until it clicks shut.
