Mircom LT-1033 MIX-100X is a loop-powered and polarity-sensitive isolator designed to detect and isolate short-circuits on loops. It features a yellow LED indicator that illuminates if a short-circuit is detected either side of the isolator. The device can be used in indoor, non-icing, and non-condensing environments with an operating temperature range of 0°F to 155°F. It has a maximum line current of 1A and is compatible with control panels that have been approved by Underwriters Laboratories Inc.

Alpha Isolator
Installation Instructions
General
The Alpha isolator, part no. MIX-100X, is designed to sense and isolate short-circuits
on loops. It is a stand-alone device which is tted into its own base.
Installation
The Alpha isolator must be installed in accordance with the applicable NFPA stand-
ards, local codes and jurisdictional authorities. Failure to follow these instructions
may result in detectors failing to report an alarm condition. Mircom is not responsible
for devices which are improperly installed, maintained and tested.
Before installing the isolator check the continuity, polarity and insulation resistance
of all wiring. Check that siting is accordance with the re system drawings and con-
forms to all applicable local codes such as NFPA 72.
Mounting
The Alpha isolator is loop-powered and polarity sensitive and can be damaged if con-
nected in reverse polarity.
1. Secure the Universal Mounting Plate to the Electrical Box.
2. Mount base securely to the Universal Mounting Plate.
3. Connect wiring following the diagram overleaf.
4. Ensure earth continuity is maintained using the earth terminal on the base if
required.
5. Fit isolator into the base.

Address Count
Address Count refers to the value of addresses that a device uses as viewed by the
isolator. The total address count value of devices placed between isolators can be
no more than 20. The total number of isolator modules that can be placed on the
addressable loop is 40.

Commissioning
It is important that the system be fully tested after installation. In normal operat-
ing conditions, apply short-circuits to the supply wiring at various points to conrm
the isolators are functioning correctly. Ensure that any applicable local codes are
adhered to.
LED Indicators
Yellow LED illuminated if a short-circuit is detected either side of the isolator.
Troubleshooting
Before investigating individual units for faults, it is very important to check that the
system wiring is fault free. Shield continuity faults on a data loop or any ancillary
zone wiring may cause communication errors.
Many fault conditions are the result of simple wiring errors.
Fault Finding
Problem Possible Cause
LED illuminated constantly Short-circuit on loop wiring.
Wiring reverse polarity.
Too many devices between isolators.
Failure to isolate a short-circuit Incompatible control panel.
Incorrect wiring.
