Digital Interface Module

The Digital Interface Module (DIM) monitors the Linear Heat Detection (LHD) cable for both Fire and Fault (open circuit) conditions. Using an additional series resistor, it can also offer discrimination of a short circuit fault on the interposing field wiring. 

With the ability to monitor up to 5000m for both Fire and Fault conditions the DIM enhances any fire detection capability and allows an appropriate action to be taken. 

The DIM has volt free relay outputs for Fire and Fault which can be configured for connecting directly into a conventional fire alarm panel or addressable interface module. 

As well as having Fire and Fault indicators built in, it has two pairs of outputs for driving remote LED indicators for Fire and Fault.
