Use
PIP-2AN/Junction/9x4mm2 box is intended for use in fire alarm systems (FAS) as part of a cable assembly. It is characterised by straight laying of the signal line.
Cable assemblies composed of a fire box and a cable with fastening ensure the continuity of electricity supply or signal transmission for the time required to activate and operate fire protection devices. According to DIN 4102-12:1998, PIP-2AN/Junction/9x4mm2 boxes are classified in the electrical function maintenance class E90.
Construction
The PIP-2AN/Junction/9x4mm2 box consists of two parts: a cover and a base (rectangular shape), which are connected together with two screws. The PIP-2AN/Junction/9x4mm2 box allows you to connect cables with 9 cores, cross-section up to and including 4 mm2. It has 7 entries enabling the introduction of a cable with a diameter of 7-19 mm.
The PIP-2AN/Junction/9x4mm2 box is made of sheet metal covered with red powder paint. The side walls of the base have graduated chokes inserted from the top and made of flame-retardant material. Gradation allows you to adjust the hole to the required cable diameter (7-19 mm). Three ceramic cubes with 3 current paths (terminals) each are attached directly to the base of the box. There is an embossment under the ceramic cubes, which is intended to increase the mechanical strength of the box during a fire, as well as to equalize the height of the inserted cable with the terminals of the ceramic cubes. The box has separate terminals for connecting the signal line input, separate ones for connecting the signal line output. The base of the box also has a place for grounding connection and mounting holes.
Operating design
The main task of the PIP-2AN/Junction/9x4mm2 boxes is to maintain the continuity of electricity supply or signal transmission in fire conditions (maintaining line continuity).
Opening
To open the box, unscrew the screws in the cover (the screws are equipped with special rubber washers that prevent them from falling out of the cover after unscrewing). Then slide the cover and base apart.
Closing
To close the box, align the base and cover and then tighten the screws.
Assembly recommendations
Mounting holes located in the base of the box enable mounting to the wall or ceiling using steel expansion sleeves and mounting screws. The installation of PIP-2AN/Junction/9x4mm2 boxes should be performed in accordance with the provisions included in the National Technical Assessment issued for the product by CNBOP-PIB.
Additional information
Other versions of PIP-2AN boxes are also available:
On request, it is possible to make the box in white. The feasibility and cost of execution are confirmed by an individual offer upon request, which should include the color of the box.
If you need to purchase additional screws/washers to mount the cover, two sets are available:
- Set 1 – for boxes PIP-1AN, PIP-2AN, PIP-2AN/Distribution/3conductors/4mm2, PIP-2AN/Junction/6x4mm2, PIP-2AN/Junction/9x4mm2, PIP-3AN, PIP-5A, PIP-7A
- Set 2 – for boxes PIP-2AN/Distribution/3conductors/6mm2, PIP-2AN/Junction/9x6mm2
Each set includes a set of elements for mounting covers on 10 pieces of boxes.
Additionally, it is possible to purchase rubber-grommet separately.
It is not allowed to make any changes to the box structure by third parties (e.g. replacing the fuse). Any modifications result in the loss of the manufacturer's warranty and invalidation of the documents issued by CNBOP-PIB.
Detailed information are available in the Operation and Maintenance Manual (O&M) of the product.
