Fire Alarm Control Panel

Description
The Gamewell Flex 404 Fire Alarm
Control Panel brings the latest in
microprocessor technology to
conventional fire controls. The Flex
404 is compatible with the new i?
smoke detectors from System
Sensor, and provides advanced
features including drift compensation,
maintenance alert, and freeze
warning. Automatic synchronization
of audio/visual devices is provided,
selectable for three manufacturers
protocols. The NAC protocol includes
the ability, using a single
pair of wires, to silence audible devices while strobes continue to flash.
The Flex 404 is also compatible with conventional input devices such as
two- and four-wire smoke detectors, pull stations, waterflow devices, tamper
switches and other normally-open contact devices.
Operation
The activation of a compatible smoke detector or any normally-open fire
alarm initiating device will: activate audible and visual signaling devices,
illuminate an indicating LED, sound the piezo sounder at the FACP,
activate the FACP alarm relay, and operate an optional module which
notifies a remote station or initiates an auxiliary control function.
i? Technology Features
Drift compensation automatically adjusts detector sensitivity and increases
resistance to false alarms caused by dust accumulation.
The maintenance alert LEDs (per zone) warn of excessive dirt accumulation,
preventing false alarms.
Detector sensitivity is automatically measured. The twice-yearly test
requirements of NFPA 72 (7-3.2.1) are met without using a ladder or test
meter.
The wireless handheld sensitivity meter eliminates the need for voltmeters,
magnets, or a physical connection to the detector. The reader displays
sensitivity in terms of percent-per-foot obscuration and provides
text status indication.
The supervisory LED (per zone) provides a warning if a detector
