Recommendations
INIM Electronics recommends that the entire system be checked completely at regular intervals (refer to
paragraph 2.7 - System test
).
2.7
System test
This system has been designed to provide the highest standards of reliability and performance. Malfunction
of any of the system devices may cause the system to be incapable of reaching the intended levels of
performance. Most problems which prevent the system from operating as intended can be found by regular
testing and maintenance of the system devices (refer to
Chapter 15 - Maintenance
).
The test must include all the system detectors, signalling devices and all other devices that are part of the
system.
2.8
Note to the installer
In order to provide adequate protection and instructions for correct use of the apparatus, you (the
installer) must be fully aware of the regulations and operating procedures of firefighting. As the only
individual in contact with system users, it is your responsibility to instruct them on how to use this system
properly and to bring to their attention that every fire is different in the amount of smoke and rate of
burning. Therefore, smoke and heat detectors may not provide timely warning of fires caused by violent
explosions, escaping gas or improper storage of inflammable materials.
Regardless of its capabilities, a fire alarm system is not a substitute for the necessary precautions building
occupants must take to prevent or minimize the harmful effects of fire.
