41 - Elevator Shunt Simplified- Introduction to Fire Alarms

In this video I show the utilization of a Cooper Bussmann Power Module Switch which dramatically simplifies elevator shunt trip. You'll no longer need to two MR-101 relays, as this piece of equipment comes with cube relays installed and pre-wired.

Elevator mechanic here. The microprocessor disconnects are great especially for when you have battery lowering on an elevator. Great video

Man you cover anything i need to know you're awesome

Keep this up, sir. I’m fairly new to the trade, and I have used your channel as a learning tool since day one. I’ve learned so much from you and just wanted you to know that your work here is appreciated.

Great video. Thank you for teaching this information 👍🏽👏

I'm learning fire now and RUclipsing videos , thanks

great job explaining this topic. i have to do my first shunt trip this week. i planned on using 24VDC from AUX POWER from my Fire Warden panel sense i am not using it for anything else to run power through my FRM to my RIB relay to trigger it and my 120 will be going through my RIB relay to the shunt trip breaker. I think i will try and use your method and run 120 through the FRM to the RIB relay sense there is little to no current draw next time. I just got nervous thinking about running 120 through my addressable relay but it makes sense why you would do it that way, thanks again for the sweet vids man!

The aux power circuit would work too, it's possible some companies prefer that method. To me though, you'd have to supervise that 24 volts AND the 120 volts, so you'd need extra parts.

Thanks Joe for these videos they really are helpful. Any update on the new series you were putting together? I'm really looking forward to it.

[@JoeKlochan]

I'm incredibly lazy with this series. I have the next video almost done, and yet I can bring myself to sit and finish it when it's nice outside.

[@mbaci0430]

@@JoeKlochan Lol I completely understand. Thanks for the reply. I'm just thankful you're still making them. They really have been quite helpful.

How do you integrate heat detectors with this set up?
