RSI-95
Description
Releasing Solenoid Interface
The Gamewell-FCI 600 Series analog addressable Fire
Alarm Control Panel (FACP) will provide all of the required
functions to control the releasing of bulk fire suppressant
materials. The Gamewell-FCI 600 Series analog address-
able FACPs are currently listed for NFPA 13 Sprinkler,
NFPA 15 Water Spray, NFPA 11 Low-Expansion Foam,
NFPA 16 Water Foam, NFPA 17 Dry Chemical, and NFPA
2001 Clean Agent types of suppressant. The Gamewell-
FCI Releasing Solenoid Interface (RSI-95) is an intelligent
addressable interface for the remote control and supervi-
sion of activation solenoids used in releasing applications.
The Releasing Solenoid Interface (RSI-95) is an address-
able Releasing Service Module, providing intelligent analog
addressable control functionality complete with full sole-
noid supervision and transient voltage suppression. Only
the RSI-95 can be used to actuate the releasing solenoid.
The RSI-95 is automatically bypassed during a Smart-
Start™ or circuit initialization to prevent accidental dis-
charge during the generic configuration, should inputs be
inadvertently activated.
The analog addressable RSI-95 solenoid control module is
designed for use with any 600 Series FACP. To avoid
unplanned fire suppressant release, the RSI-95 assembly
is the ONLY assembly to be used to provide remote releas-
ing solenoid control. The circuit can control up to two amps
of DC power to the solenoid. The RSI-95 is powered and
controlled via the analog addressable signaling line circuit
and the solenoid power is obtained from the control panel
or a UL-Listed fire protection 24 VDC power supply. The
RSI-95 fully supervises the releasing solenoid.

properly qualified personnel.
Installation Guideline
Install the RSI-95 according to NFPA 70, NEC 760, and
any applicable local codes.
NOTE: Only one each RSI-95 and solenoid may be con-
nected together for each releasing circuit. The RSI-95 is
designed to fit on a 4.688" (11.908 cm) by 2.125" (5.397
cm) deep electrical box (user supplied).
