Monitoring Functions
Max.Alarm:
Issued when the volume of a single, continuous discharge exceeds a preset limit.
A discharge is considered continuous as long as its indicated flow exceeds the
preset cut-off value, or as long as the indicated flow does not decline
(PSALM®).
Seepage Alarm:
Issued when the flow of the installation fails for an entire test interval (normally 24 hrs)
to drop below a preset limit.
System Fault:
System Fault is issued when the cutoff valve fails to close tight, when an internal voltage supply fails,
and when no flow is registered for an appreciable time out of Holiday mode or in High Consumption Phase.
System Faults do not cause installation cut-off.
Operating Modes:
Monitoring employs different sensitivities in High and Low Consumption Phases. Switching between phases
can be manual (Holiday Button), automatic via AIA (burglar alarm), automatic via attached PIR motion
sensors, or automatic by internal Timer.
When 'Free Discharge' is activated, the current discharge limit may be exceeded without raising an alarm;
this condition is revoked automatically upon expiry of a pre-set time, or if the key is reactivated
before that.
Run-In:
KMP-V can perform automatic run-in over a 14-day period. During run-in, KMP-V stores flow data
for analysis, and does not monitor the installation.
Run-in complete, KMP-V calculates monitoring
parameters according to the observed consumption. Depending on internal jumper settings, one or
more of these parameters will be instated when run-in terminates.
Alarm Functions
On leakage errors, system KMP-V cuts off the installation, issues alarm visibly and audibly at the
front panel, and deactivates the alarm relay.
System erros are reported via an alarm relay, and visibly and audibly if possible.
Valve errors are reported visibly. In the Low Consumption Phase, leakage alarm relay response
may be delayed until termination of the phase.

Valve Functions
A number of different valve functions are possible depending on external signals from burglar or
fire alarms, door switches on fire hose cabinets,valve switches on free-hanging fire hoses, or
attached motion sensors. Furthermore, KMP-V may be supplied with a spring-return type cut-off
valve, and is thus able to meet particular requirements from various authorities.
