Fire Alarm System Limitations

While a fire alarm system may lower insurance

rates, it is not a substitute for fire insurance!

An automatic fire alarm system–typically made up of

smoke detectors, heat detectors, manual pull stations,

audible warning devices, and a fire alarm control with

remote notification capability–can provide early warning

of a developing fire.

Such a system, however, does not assure protection

against property damage or loss of life resulting from a

fire.

The Manufacturer recommends that smoke and/or heat

detectors be located throughout a protected premise

following the recommendations of the current edition of

the National Fire Protection Association Standard 72

(NFPA 72), manufacturer's recommendations, State and

local codes, and the recommendations contained in the

Guide for Proper Use of System Smoke Detectors, which

is made available at no charge to all installing dealers. A

study by the Federal Emergency Management Agency

(an agency of the United States government) indicated

that smoke detectors may not go off in as many as 35%

of all fires. While fire alarm systems are designed to

provide early warning against fire, they do not guarantee

warning or protection against fire. A fire alarm system

may not provide timely or adequate warning, or simply

may not function, for a variety of reasons:

Smoke detectors may not sense fire where smoke

cannot reach the detectors such as in chimneys, in or

behind walls, on roofs, or on the other side of closed

doors. Smoke detectors also may not sense a fire on

another level or floor of a building. A second-floor

detector, for example, may not sense a first-floor or

basement fire.

Particles of combustion or "smoke" from a developing

fire may not reach the sensing chambers of smoke

detectors be- cause:



Barriers such as closed or partially closed doors,

walls, or chimneys may inhibit particle or smoke flow.



Smoke particles may become "cold," stratify, and not

reach the ceiling or upper walls where detectors are

located.



Smoke particles may be blown away from detectors

by air outlets.



Smoke particles may be drawn into air returns before

reaching the detector.

The amount of "smoke" present may be insufficient to

alarm smoke detectors. Smoke detectors are designed

to alarm at various levels of smoke density. If such

density levels are not created by a developing fire at the

location of detectors, the detectors will not go into alarm.

Smoke detectors, even when working properly, have

sensing limitations. Detectors that have photo electronic

sensing chambers tend to detect smoldering fires better

than flaming fires, which have little visible smoke.

Detectors that have ionizing-type sensing chambers tend

to detect fast-flaming fires better than smoldering fires.

Because fires develop in different ways and are often

unpredictable in their growth, neither type of detector is

necessarily best and a given type of detector may not

provide adequate warning of a fire.

Smoke detectors cannot be expected to provide

adequate warning of fires caused by arson, children

playing with matches (especially in bedrooms), smoking

in bed, and violent explosions (caused by escaping gas,

improper storage of flammable materials, etc.).

Heat detectors do not sense particles of combustion and

alarm only when heat on their sensors increases at a

predetermined rate or reaches a predetermined level.

Rate-of-rise heat detectors may be subject to reduced

sensitivity over time. For this reason, the rate-of-rise

feature of each detector should be tested at least once

per year by a qualified fire protection specialist. Heat

detectors are designed to protect property, not life.

IMPORTANT! Smoke detectors must be installed in the

same room as the control panel and in rooms used by the

system for the connection of alarm transmission wiring,

communications, signaling, and/or power. If detectors are

not so located, a developing fire may damage the alarm

system, crippling its ability to report a fire.

Audible warning devices such as bells may not alert

people if these devices are located on the other side of

closed or partly open doors or are located on another

floor of a building. Any warning device may fail to alert

people with a disability or those who have recently

consumed drugs, alcohol or medication. Please note

that:



Strobes can, under certain circumstances, cause

seizures in people with conditions such as epilepsy.



Studies have shown that certain people, even when

they hear a fire alarm signal, do not respond or

comprehend the meaning of the signal. It is the

property owner's responsibility to conduct fire drills

and other training exercise to make people aware of

fire alarm signals and instruct them on the proper

reaction to alarm signals.



In rare instances, the sounding of a warning device

can cause temporary or permanent hearing loss.

A fire alarm system will not operate without any

electrical power. If AC power fails, the system will

operate from standby batteries only for a specified time

and only if the batteries have been properly maintained

and replaced regularly.

Equipment used in the system may not be technically

compatible with the control. It is essential to use only

equipment listed for service with your control panel.

Telephone lines needed to transmit alarm signals from a

premise to a central monitoring station may be out of

service or temporarily disabled. For added protection

against telephone line failure, backup radio transmission

systems are recommended.

The most common cause of fire alarm malfunction is

inadequate maintenance. To keep the entire fire alarm

system in excellent working order, ongoing maintenance

is required per the manufacturer's recommendations, and

UL and NFPA standards. At a minimum, the

requirements of Chapter 7 of NFPA 72 shall be followed.

Environments with large amounts of dust, dirt or high air

velocity require more frequent maintenance. A

maintenance agreement should be arranged through the

local manufacturer's representative. Maintenance should

be scheduled monthly or as required by National and/ or

local fire codes and should be performed by authorized

professional fire alarm installers only. Adequate written

records of all inspections should be kept.

Installation Precautions

Adherence to the following will aid in problem-

free installation with long-term reliability:

WARNING - Several different sources of power can be

connected to the fire alarm control panel. Disconnect all

sources of power before servicing. Control unit and

associated equipment may be damaged by removing

and/or inserting cards, modules, or interconnecting

cables while the unit is energized. Do not attempt to

install, service, or operate this unit until this manual is

read and understood.

CAUTION - System Reacceptance Test after Software

Changes. To ensure proper system operation, this

product must be tested in accordance with NFPA 72

Chapter 7 after any programming operation or change in

site-specific soft- ware. Reacceptance testing is required

after any change, addition or deletion of system

components, or after any modification, repair or

adjustment to system hardware or wiring.

All components, circuits, system operations, or software

functions known to be affected by a change must be

100% tested. In addition, to ensure that other operations

are not inadvertently affected, at least 10% of initiating

devices that are not directly affected by the change, up to

a maximum of 50 de- vices, must also be tested and

proper system operation verified.

This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at

0-49° C/32-120° F and at a relative humidity of 85% RH

(non- condensing) at 30° C/86° F. However, the useful

life of the system's standby batteries and the electronic

components may be adversely affected by extreme

temperature ranges and humidity. Therefore, it is

recommended that this system and all peripherals be

installed in an environment with a nominal room

temperature of 15-27° C/60-80° F.

Verify that wire sizes are adequate for all initiating and

indicating device loops. Most devices cannot tolerate

more than a 10% I.R. drop from the specified device

voltage.

Like all solid state electronic devices, this system may

operate erratically or can be damaged when subjected to

lightning-induced transients. Although no system is

completely immune from lightning transients and

interferences, proper grounding will reduce susceptibility.

Overhead or outside aerial wiring is not recommended,

due to an increased susceptibility to nearby lightning

strikes. Consult with the Technical Services Department

if any problems are anticipated or encountered.

Disconnect AC power and batteries prior to removing

or inserting circuit boards. Failure to do so can damage

circuits.

Remove all electronic assemblies prior to any drilling,

filing, reaming, or punching of the enclosure. When

possible, make all cable entries from the sides or rear.

Before making modifications, verify that they will not

interfere with battery, transformer, and printed circuit

board location.

Do not tighten screw terminals more than 9 in-lbs.

Over-tightening may damage threads, resulting in

reduced terminal contact pressure and difficulty with

screw terminal removal.

Though designed to last many years, system

components can fail at any time. This system contains

static-sensitive components. Always ground yourself with

a proper wrist strap before handling any circuits so that

static charges are re- moved from the body. Use static-

suppressive packaging to protect electronic assemblies

removed from the unit.

Follow the instructions in the installation, operating,

and programming manuals. These instructions must be

followed to avoid damage to the control panel and

associated equipment. FACP operation and reliability

depend upon proper installation by authorized personnel.
