Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Installation instructions 2018.06 | 4.0 | F.01U.036.340
1 Notices
These instructions cover the installation of the D125B Dual ClassB Initiating Module in a fire
system supervised by a fire alarm control panel (FACP) or a combination Burglary/Fire control
panel.
Before installing the module, become familiar with the Installation and Operation Guide for the
control panel you are using.
Install, test and maintain the module according to these instructions, NFPA codes, local codes,
and the authority having jurisdiction (AHJ). Failure to follow these instructions can result in
failure of a detector to initiate an alarm event. Bosch Security Systems, Inc. is not responsible
for improperly installed, tested or maintained devices.
!
Warning!
Follow these instructions to avoid personal injury and damage to equipment.
NFPA72 requires that you perform a complete system wide functional test following any
modifications, repair, upgrades or adjustments made to the system’s components, hardware,
wiring, programming and software/firmware.
2 Description
Use this module to connect up to 2 two‑wire powered loops (ClassB [StyleB]) to separate
on‑board points on the compatible Bosch Security Systems, Inc. control panels listed in the
table below. These loops are powered with nominal 12VDC or 24VDC for compatible smoke
detectors or glassbreak devices. You can also use any dry contact device with this module.

3 Operation
The module can be powered from the control panel’s switched auxiliary power output or from
an external auxiliary power supply. Currently, the control panels can only supply 12VDC, but
external power supplies can provide either 12VDC or 24VDC.
For wiring details, see Wiring, page 6.
3.1 Power from the control panel
In this mode, the control panel switched auxiliary power output supplies regulated,
power‑limited, supervised 12VDC power to the module. The switched power output allows all
detectors connected to the module to be reset by interrupting power using the Reset Sensor
command. See Wiring for 12
VDC power supplied by the control panel, page 7.
Powered loop interface Installation | en 5
Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Installation instructions 2018.06 | 4.0 | F.01U.036.340
3.2 Power from an external auxiliary power supply
Use a separate power supply listed for fire signaling units and/or commercial or residential
burglary units. Depending on compatibility with the control panel, a D130, D133, or D134
Relay can be required to reset the smoke detectors using the Reset Sensor command. See
Wiring for 12
VDC or 24
VDC power supplied by an external power supply, page 8.
The external power supply must be UL1481 or UL864 Listed, regulated, and power‑limited.
Install the control panel and external power supply in the same room no more than 20ft (6m)
apart. The interconnecting wires between the control panel and external power supply must
be in conduit.
The power source for both the auxiliary power supply and the control panel must be from the
same dedicated AC branch circuit.
4 Installation
The module can be mounted in the D8103, D8108A, D8109, D8109G, D8109H, or D8109L
Enclosures. Only the D8108A and D8109 models are suitable for commercial fire applications.
The D8108A and D8109L enclosures require use of a D137 Mounting Bracket to install the
module. The other enclosures have several module mounting locations to which the module
can be installed using the supplied screws. Refer to the D137’s and the enclosure’s
Installation Instructions for mounting locations and instructions.

5 Wiring
5.1 Wiring sensor loops
The D125B has two loop inputs:
Loop A Loop B
A+ (terminal 9) B+ (terminal 8)
A- (terminal 7) B- (terminal 6)
Notice!
Observe polarity when wiring detection loops. Do not cross Loop A and Loop B connections.
To supervise the loops, install an end-of-line (EOL) resistor after the last detector of each
protective loop. When installing a D125B in a new or existing system, use the 1.8kΩ EOL
resistor (P/N: F01U009011B) supplied with the module.
Notice!
To ensure system supervision, do not use looped wire under the terminals. Break the run to
provide supervision of the connections.

2 Normally‑open contacts (NO) 5 Common
3 Combination: Normally‑open and
normally‑closed contacts (NO/NC)
6 1.8 kΩ EOL resistor (P/
N:F01U009011B) supplied with the
module
The D125B shorts the protective loop on the control panel when the high (+) and low (-) side
of either module loop is shorted together or when a smoke detector activates. The module
opens the protective loop on the control panel during the following conditions:
– The module protective loop is opened.
– The D125B is not powered.
Powered loop interface Wiring | en 7
Bosch Security Systems, Inc. Installation instructions 2018.06 | 4.0 | F.01U.036.340
– Either the high (+) side of the loop or the low (-) side of the loop is shorted to ground.
For control panels with Ground Fault Detect, a short to ground causes a ground fault
condition when Ground Fault Detect is enabled.
When programming for fire applications, refer to the corresponding control panel operation
and installation guide.
