Condition Tones Priority Input

PA 800 + 5 Hz with ½sec. 1 Manual
mark/space ratio

GA. 500-1200Hz-500Hz in 2 Manual & auto

112
 -

3 sec. cycle

Process Pre-recorded 3 Auto

Alarm Message messages
Emergency 4 Manual
announcement
Normal PA Two tone chime 5 Manual
Telephone Paging One tone chime 6 Manual
Tests Steady 7 Manual

The unit priority (for Emergency Announcement and Normal Paging) shall
be in the following descending order

Control Room in the Terminal building

Security in the Terminal

Fire Crash Rescue
The priority system is required to ensure efficient usage of the PA System.
Tone priority as specified above shall be easily changed/interchanged if
and when required an input for higher priority shall automatically
stop/override an existing lower tone and activates the higher priority tone.

When Emergency PA function e.g. Abandon Facility, (Priority Level 1), is

manually activated during presence of a Fire and Gas alarm (Priority Level

2), the Fire and Gas alarm tone shall be overridden for the duration of the
Abandon Facility alarm tone. (This feature shall apply to all levels of
alarms).

When an Emergency Announcement (Priority 4) is selected during the

presence of any higher priority tone alarms, the tone alarm shall be

reduced to a lower audio level, after time delay, for the duration of the
announcement.

A timer shall control the time delay, which shall be an integral part of the
main/central PA equipment. It shall be possible to vary the pre-set delay
from 1 to 30 seconds.

The tone muting shall be automatically controlled for a period of

approximately 30 seconds and activated by relay contacts from the
System.

Tone muting level shall be adjustable from 6 dB to infinity. Permanent

muting action shall be prevented.

113
 -

When a higher priority alarm condition arises while the Emergency

Announcement is being used (during lower priority alarm), the higher
priority alarm shall override the Emergency Announcement and continue
to broadcast the higher priority alarm tone for the pre-set time as stated
before the Emergency Announcement function can once again be used.

The selection of normal paging/test function during an alarm annunciation

shall not be possible except during the localized Process Alarm. During
localized Process Alarm, normal paging shall still be possible to other
areas except the affected area(s) and the sleeping areas.

The normal paging access is from PA control panels or the telephone

extensions. This priority arrangement is for ensuring that the activated
alarm having the highest assigned priority level is
broadcasted/annunciated and that lower priority alarms are muted. Hence,
this priority arrangement assures that only the most urgent alarm will be
heard at anyone time.

Alarm Sequence 3.2

The alarm pattern for the visual and audible GA and PA shall be unique
and in accordance with the table below:

Alarm Alarm Public

Signal Activated Reset

corresponding amplifier connected in parallel) for changeover.

The PA speakers shall be installed at strategic locations throughout the

only cover these areas at pre- selected zone buttons.

Paging zones shall be field configurable (without the requirement for

special tools, cables etc) to enable flexibility for future re-zoning.

System Description: 5.2

Under normal operating conditions, inverters share the AC load, 5.2.1
inverters derives its DC power from the Float/Boast chargers, while the
Battery remains in float across the output of the chargers. The chargers
in turn draw its AC power from the commercial AC mains.

5.2.2 In case of interruption to AC mains, the inverters get the DC

power from the battery, so that the AC output of the inverters remains
uninterrupted. The battery is discharged under this condition.

5.2.3 When the AC mains is restored, the chargers will feed the
inverters again and at the same time supply charging current to battery
to boost and restore the full charge condition. At the end of charging
cycle , the chargers revert automatically to floating mode.

5.2.4 In case of failure to AC output of the inverters, the static switch

automatically by pass the load to the AC mains.

5.2.5 When the AC load is fed directly from the AC mains, the voltage
across the load should be regulated to 230V±2%, which requires a
separate Static AC regulator of full capacity to be provided. The load
should be reverted to inverters automatically or manually after rectifying
the fault.

132
 -

5.2.6 Manual Bypass switch is required to bypass the inverters and

transfer the AC load manually to the AC commercial.
5.2.7 The system should be fully redundant. It should consist of more
than one inverter, chargers connected in parallel, two battery banks of
adequate capacity to cater for 30 minutes backup, bypass equipment
and static voltage regulator of full load capacity.

5.2.8 The whole system should be flexible to expansion.
