5. SYSTEM DESIGN

5.1 The fire telephone system shall consist of, but not limited to, a full digital switching station,
a cordless attendant fire console with cannon audible alarm, full maintenance and administration
facilities including printer and color VDU and keyboard, all necessary MDF and IDF’s and all
necessary terminal blocks and MDF and IDF’s installation materials, an automatic solid state tape
recorder, appropriate power supply system with an automatic battery charger, paging system, alarm
capabilities and also necessary loud-speakers and fire telephones.

5.1.1. System duplication (Hot standby)

The PMBX shall be duplicated as follows:

• Main processor and associated peripheral circuits.

• Local processor and associated peripheral circuits.

• Switching network.

• Tone generators.

• Ring generators.

• Central clock generator.

• Shelf power supply unit.

5.2 The fire telephone system shall have provisions for the following type of connections :

( a) Direct connection between the fire telephones and the fire attendant console.
An alarm shal1 be actuated on the fire attendant console whenever a call is made from any fire
telephone.

(b) Paging via fire attendant to any selected fire loudspeaker routes or all fire loudspeakers.

3
 JULY, 2005 NIOEC-SP-70-51(0)

( c ) Group calls from the fire attendant console to eight (8) selected fire telephones.

(d ) Direct connection between the fire attendant console and the refinery telephone system.
One extension on the refinery telephone system will be designated for reporting fires and
emergencies. Six (6) trunks will be connected from this extension to the fire attendant console.
(e ) Direct connection between the fire attendant console and the PTT telephone system
(f ) Direct connection between the fire attendant console and a remote alarm panel
(the remote alarm panel shall be located at the fire house). One alarm point shall be provided for
each fire telephone position. An alarm will be actuated each time a call is made from any fire
telephone.
6. SERVICE REQUIREMENTS

6.1 The service capacity requirements of the attendant fire console shall be specified during the
detail design of the projects. However the following figures provide a guideline for sizing of a
typical PMBX in an oil refinery:

(a) 60 numbers (expandable to 200 numbers) of fire Central Battery (CB) telephone position.

(b) 30 numbers of loudspeaker routes.

C) Necessary numbers of appropriate watt amplifier for paging over 30 loudspeaker routes with
access from attendant.

d) 4 numbers of PTT (Central Office) trunks of Central Office Both Ways (COBWT).

e) 6 numbers of the Refinery PABX trunks of 4W E&M trunks.

6.2 The amplifiers shall be fully solid state with an appropriate power output. The amplifiers
shall be housed completely separate from the telephone equipment.
The amplifiers shall have high voltage outputs of 70 and 100 volts.
The cable distribution system shall be designed so that not more than 8% of amplifier powers are
dissipated in the distribution system.

6.3 Necessary number sets of loud speakers shall be determined by ambient noise sound analysis
and be supplied. Loud speakers located outdoor shall be explosion proof type construction. The
power output shall also be determined by ambient noise sound analysis.
Each loudspeaker shall be equipped with .suitable matching transformers to accept 70 or 100 volts
output of the amplifiers.

4
 JULY, 2005 NIOEC-SP-70-51(0)

6.4 60 sets of fire telephones of CB type and shall be supplied. Among them, the telephones used
in process areas (28 sets) shall be explosion proof and shall be installed in sound proof kiosks.

6.5 No over ground cabling shall be accepted for outdoor phones or speakers.

7 ATIENDANT CONSOLE AND TAPE RECORDER

7.1 The fire attendant console shall be cordless push button type and shall incorporate a desk type
microphone for paging. Each position on the console shall be equipped with a
common audible alarm and individual station visual indication of the status of calling fire
telephones.

7.2 Calling a fire telephone from the attendant console shall be accomplished either by dialing or by
a direct pushbutton.
