SFP-5UD/SFP-10UD(E) Five Zone Fire Alarm Control Panel / Ten Zone Fire Alarm Control Panel
This document provides detailed information on the Notifier SFP-5UD and SFP-10UD(E) Fire Alarm Control Panels (FACPs), designed for reliable fire signaling protection in small to medium-sized commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings.
General
The SFP-5UD is a five-zone FACP, and the SFP-10UD(E) is a ten-zone FACP. These control panels offer reliable fire signaling protection for small to medium-sized commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings. Both panels feature built-in communicators for Central Station Service and remote upload/download capabilities.
Compatibility includes System Sensor's microprocessor-based i3 series detectors, which can transmit maintenance trouble signals for cleaning needs and supervisory "freeze" signals for low ambient temperatures. The panels also support conventional input devices such as two- and 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 list of compatible devices.
Outputs include four Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs), three programmable Form-C relays (factory programmed for Alarm, Trouble, and Supervisory), and 24 VDC special application resettable and nonresettable power outputs. All wiring, AC voltage, battery level, and telephone line integrity are supervised.
Activation of a compatible smoke detector or any normally-open fire alarm initiating device triggers audible and visual signaling devices, illuminates an indicating LED, sounds the piezo sounder at the FACP, activates the communicator and FACP alarm relay, and operates an optional module for remote station notification or auxiliary control functions.
The FireWatch Series internet monitoring modules, IPDACT-2 and IPDACT-2UD, allow alarm signal monitoring over the Internet, potentially saving costs on dedicated telephone lines. A secondary telephone line can be retained for backup communication over the public switched telephone line.
Note: The SFP-10UDE offers the same features as the SFP-10UD but connects to 240 VAC. Unless otherwise specified, information in this data sheet applies to both 120 VAC and 240 VAC versions.
Note: For ULC-listed models, refer to document dn-60437.
