Kidde "Badger" Universal Control Head

Looking for a little help with wire output.. Been tasked with the hookup of a Badger 60 Universal Control Head (Cook Ho= od Suppression system) to a local Fire Alarm Panel.. (alarm when the hood system is activated)

UCH has 6 wires showing, Yellow, Yellow/stripe, Blue, Blue/stripe, Brown = and Brown/stripe..

No 2 wires of the set has a continuity short..

Does this unit support connection of a dry contact closure? If so, which color pair of wires would accomplish this connection?

This is a fairly new installation but the installers didn=E2=80=99t leave a= ny paper work behind for the owners records.. I=E2=80=99ve been unable to get any help from the manufacturer or their web= site..

Many Thanks for those that can help with this problem..

Suppression systems are usually normally open and should be supervised with= a resister at the hood.

Greetings Bob,

That=E2=80=99s understood Bob. The issue is which pair of wires attaches = to the N.O. set of contacts? Normally given this wire pattern one set of solid and striped wire would= be common and the other sets would be N.O. and N.C. However no 2 wires in this 6 wire group has a continuity short.. So the normal assumption is not valid..

Thanks for the reply. RTS
