1. GENERAL
1.1 Introduction
This manual provided only the basis operator’s information on the control and operation
of the Fire Alarm System. To ensure continuous reliability of the system, the owner or
owner’s representative should establish an agreement to carry out regular maintenance
of the installation with the manufacturer or manufacturer’s representative or a
competent and qualified contractor trained to service and maintain this system.
The arrangements for maintenance should be such as well ensure that a qualified
person is available on call at all time to provide service in the event of any fault that
develops at the installation. For the requirements of the Regular Testing and
Inspection, please refer to the section covered in this manual.
1.2 System Description
This Fire Alarm System utilises the V5 Fire Alarm Panel. The system may
comprise one or more alarm panel networked together witch performs the task of
processing the input signals and thereafter transmit the output signals or initiates other
auxiliary functions. The alarm panel (s) are usually sited in the building fire command
centre or any prominent location clearly visible from the main entrance.
Input devices are used to cause a change in panel status. These devices may be the
combination of Manual Call Points (as in manual and automatic alarm system),
Heat/Smoke Detectors (as in automatic alarm systems).
Output devices are used to provide an audio & visual warning. Output devices
commonly used are alarm bells although sirens and strobe lights are sometimes used.
These three components: Input Devices, Control Panel and Output Devices form the
backbone of a Fire Alarm System.
Non-addressable Fire Alarm Systems operates on a “Zone” basis. These zones are
groups of input devices grouped in accordance to the locality they are protecting. In the
event of a Fire/Fault condition, the location where the signal had originated will be
defined by the respective indication on the panel. It is therefore important to be familiar
with the zoning of the protected area. A zoning diagram (or zone chart) is usually
provided for this purpose.
The Alarm Panel is provided with a feature that continuously monitoring the continuity of
the input/detection, output/sounder circuits to ensure integrity of the system. It is also
equipped with a battery back-up supply (lasting at least 24 hours) in the event of an
incoming supply failure.
