Suppression Release Peripheral Application and Installation Instructions
9
For systems intended for Halon 1301 (NFPA 12A), Halon 1211 (NFPA 12B), or clean
agents (NFPA 2001) release, a pre-discharge NAC must be configured to warn building
occupants of the impending discharge. Refer to the applicable control panel programming
manual (574-849 for 4100U/4100ES/4010ES, 579-1167 for 4007ES and 574-052 for
4010) for programming details. Compliance with ADA requires audible and visible
notification.
Use of abort switches in a pre-action or deluge water type releasing service will void UL
864 Listing for this product and for the associated fire alarm control panel.
Program an addressable monitor point for abort operation by following the programming
details in the applicable manual. When the abort switch is activated, the control panel
halts the release or discharge of extinguishing agent. Pressing and holding the abort switch
will prevent agent release/discharge unless the manual release switch is activated. Manual
release overrides abort.
Activation of a manual release switch is indicated with a programmed red manual release
LED on the FACP. Upon activation of the manual release switch, the system will activate
the applicable releasing circuits upon expiration of the manual release timer or upon
expiration of a previously active automatic release timer if the remaining time on the
automatic release timer is less than the programmed manual release timer.
Note:
Setting the manual release timer to
zero
will result in immediate release.
