If you’re not too sure which fire alarm system panels are suitable for your needs, there are several factors that should be considered. Any fire alarm system panel that has been designed to the British standard BS 5839 will divide the property up into zones (physical areas which can be identified by a zone number used to locate the fire). Every fire alarm system panel will have a zone capacity and this must be sufficient to accommodate however many zones your system needs.
Secondly do you know what type of fire alarm system panel you need to install? Broadly speaking there are 3 types of fire alarm system panel; conventional, 2 wire or addressable and each is summarised as follows;
Conventional fire alarm system panels are considered the most basic and economical in terms of the equipment itself. Fire detectors and call points for each zone are connected in series, which ends at the last device and terminates at the panel (radial circuit). Warning devices (sounders and flashers) must be connected to a separate sounder circuit. In the event of a fire alarm system panel will simply show which zone this has occurred in (it is worth considering that a single zone may contain up to 25 detectors).
2 wire fire alarm system panels can be thought of as an evolution of conventional fire panels. To overcome the additional cabling needed for the separate sounder circuit, 2 wire panels allow any type of device (detectors, call points or sounders) to be connected in series on the same wire. However, alarm indication is still limited to only showing which zone the fire is in.
Addressable fire alarm system panels are the most advanced type of fire panel. All devices for every zone are connected to the same wire which is looped from fire alarm system panel to each device in series before returning back to the panel. Through a system of addressing, addressable fire alarm system panels can identify each individual device to assign them into a zone. In alarm condition the fire panel will not only show the zone number but also a text description (for instance “bedroom 2”) of the device. Further benefits are gained from this loop wiring including system integrity if there is a cable break.
The above,some fire alarm system panels have already recommend for you. Hope this helps you !
