Notifier RP-2002(E) Agent Release Control Panel

General

The RP-2002 is a six-zone FACP for single and dual hazard agent releasing applications. It provides reliable fire detection, signaling, and protection for commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings requiring agent-based releasing. The RP-2002 is compatible with System Sensor's i³ detectors, which are conventional smoke detectors that can transmit a maintenance trouble signal to the FACP indicating the need for cleaning and a supervisory 'freeze' signal when the ambient temperature falls below the detector rating of approximately 45°F (7.22°C). In addition, the control panel is compatible with conventional input devices such as two-wire smoke detectors, four-wire smoke detectors, pull stations, waterflow devices, tamper switches, and other normally-open contact devices. Refer to the Notifier Device Compatibility Document for a complete listing of compatible devices.

Four outputs are programmable as NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits) or releasing circuits. Three programmable Form-C relays (factory programmed for Alarm, Trouble, and Supervisory) and 24 VDC special application resettable and non-resettable power outputs are also included on the main circuit board. The RP-2002 supervises all wiring, AC voltage, battery charger, and battery level.

Activation of a compatible smoke detector or any normally-open fire alarm initiating device will activate audible and visual signaling devices, illuminate an indicator, display alarm information on the panel's LCD, sound the piezo sounder at the FACP, activate the FACP alarm relay, and operate an optional module used to notify a remote station or initiate an auxiliary control function.

The RP-2002E offers the same features as the RP-2002 but allows connection to 220/240 VAC. Unless otherwise specified, the information in this data sheet applies to both the 110/120 VAC and 220/240 VAC versions of the panels.
