5 SYSTEM OVERVIEW

The Fire detection and alarm system shall be intelligent, addressable and enable mitigation of
hazardous condition with respect to fire by performing the below functions:
 Detect The Hazard
 Alert people
All existing fire detection and alarm devices shall be decommissioned, removed and replaced with
Tyco brand devices.
All device which includes smoke / Heat detectors, manual call points and the audible/visual alarms
via a loop system shall be connected to the FACP in each building.
The fire alarm and detection system shall have as a minimum;
 A full addressable fire alarm control panel FACP in each building
 A standby battery.
 Fire sensors (Smoke/ heat detectors, gas detectors) shall be provided.
 Fire alarm sounders shall be located such that audible signals can be clearly heard throughout
the building.
 Manual call points (break glass units) will be provided along exit routes in the building.
The system may also be designed to interface with other services which may require to be turned on
or off in the event of a fire.
All devices (detectors, panels, call points and sounders) shall be Tyco product.

6 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The Tyco Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) MX is provided with lockable wall mounted box panel to
be located in each building.
Addressable type smoke/Heat detectors shall be installed, while addressable type gas detectors
shall be installed in areas where gas detection is necessary, and manual call points installed along
exit routes with sounders located in the best visible positions.
2
The system shall be wired with a 1.5 mm cable in loops.
- Loop 1 will be connected to (manual call points and detectors) and
- Loop 2 for all sounders.
- Loop 3 for all gas detectors (where its used)
The manual call points shall be connected to the start of the loop followed by the detectors while,
the sounders are in a different loop, each of the loops shall be capable of driving up to 250 field
addressable devices
In the event of a fire the alarm panel investigates to determine the cause of the alarm by looking
for the detector in the loop in alarm that signaled the fire, and the alarms shall sound
intermittently. If the fire is confirmed, the alarm shall then sound continuously signifying that the
building is to be evacuated.
All the detectors shall be configured from Consys software to Mode 1-Resilent Mode - High false
alarm immunity multi criteria that will minimize false alarms from no fire sources whilst retaining
the ability to detect a wide range of fire conditions.

The system shall be wired to be supervised for an open, short, ground fault and tone alarm sirens
to be connected to the FACP with dual circuit.
Note: Beside the primary source of power for the Fire detection and alarm systems, a secondary
back-up power source s h o u l d b e provided to be used as emergency power from batteries of
UPS units to energize the relevant loads for not less than 8 hours for fire- fighting and fire alarm
systems.
