SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The ARIES NET

Link

system is an intelligent control panel which coordinates and monitors the varied

components of a protected-premises fire suppression system and/or fire alarm system. For each
protected zone, the ARIES NET

Link

system can provide:

•

alarm initiation

•

occupant notification

•

event annunciation

•

support-systems activation/de-activation

•

extinguishing-system release

•

fire department summons
