Product catalog summary
Overview
The Fireboy-Xintex Mini Monitor Module (VF5608-0M) is a loop-powered device designed to monitor single pole, volt-free contacts and report their status to Apollo compatible analog control equipment. It can be installed in an electrical box or mounted on a DIN Rail. The module features an optional priority interrupt for fast response, adjustable via the DIL switch.
Standard Features
  • Compact design for limited space installations
  • Includes a short circuit isolator
  • Interrupt and non-interrupt functionality in one unit
  • Pre-alarm status capability
  • LED status indicators: Yellow for fault, Green for polling, Red for alarm
  • DIN Rail mountable
Technical Specifications
  • Operating Voltage: 17-28V DC
  • Protocol Voltage: 5-9V
  • Current Consumption at 24V: Quiescent current of 200µA, LED Operated Alarm at 3.4mA + Quiescent, Remote and LED Alarm at 6.2mA + Quiescent, Switch Fault LED at +2.8mA (pulsing 0.5s on, 0.5s off)
Wiring and Connections
The module includes connections for L+ In/Out, L- In, L- Out, Alarm LED, and optional remote LED. It uses resistors for alarm (1K Ω) and end of line (20K Ω).
LED Indicators
  • Red: Alarm condition
  • Green: Polling
  • Yellow: Short circuit on loop wiring (constant), Fault on monitored circuit (pulsing)
Approval
The module is USCG Type Approved (161.002/A53/0).

Mini Monitor Module-1

Mini Monitor Module: VF5608-0M Mini Input Modules USCG Type Approved 161.002/A53/0 Standard Features - Designed for use where space is limited - Features a short circuit isolator as standard - Interrupt/non interrupt in one unit - “Pre-alarm” status available - LED status indication (Yellow Fault, Green - Polling, Red Alarm) - DIN Rail mountable Indicates alarm condition Indicates polling constant, short circuit on loop wiring It is designed to monitor the state of one or more single pole, volt free contacts connected on a single pair of cables and to report the status to Apollo compatible analog control equipment. Please note: When the eighth section of the DIL switch is changed, the Fireboy-Xintex Mini Monitor Module will change the type code it sends to the panel. pulsing, fault on the monitored circuit Wiring options for the Mini Switch Monitor Technical Specifications Protocol: 5-9V Current Consumption at 24V The Fireboy-Xintex Mini Monitor Module, part no VF5608-0M, is a loop-powered device, which incorporates a monitored input circuit for connection to switches. The module is supplied in a small housing designed to fit into an electrical box, or to be DIN Rail mounted. The Fireboy-Xintex Mini Monitor Module has an optional priority interrupt facility to give fast response and can be fitted in an electrical box behind a pull station. This option is selected via the eighth section of the DIL switch. The mini switch monitor has three status LEDs: LED Operated Alarm: 3.4mA +Quiescent Remote and LED Alarm: 6.2mA +Quiescent Switch Fault LED: +2.8mA (pulsing 0.5s on, 0.5s off) 3 Alarm End of Line Optional Remote LED Releasing Clip Fig 2 - Mini Switch Monitor on a DIN Rail Fireboy-Xintex, Inc.
