FIRE ALARM SYSTEM OVERVIEW:  UL, NFPA

Bosch fire alarm control panels and fire product accessories meet the most demanding industry requirements. Through Bosch's participation on Underwriters Laboratory (UL) and NFPA code committees, they are not only aware of new codes, but have been instrumental in creating new standards for the fire alarm industry. These new standards are the cornerstone of the Bosch fire product line. 

Bosch offers a broad line of fire alarm control equipment ranging from a 3-zone Digital Alarm Communicator Transmitter (DACT) to the high-end integrated, intelligent fire alarm controls. Each system is designed to provide accurate, local response to all types of fire hazards. Using the latest communications technology, this critical information is processed and transmitted to responding agencies. The fire alarm system can also interface with other building functions during an emergency, for example, it can control the heating and ventilation systems, or unlock doors on an access control system. 

As well as providing reliable fire detection capabilities, Bosch fire alarm systems can also be used as integrated controllers for intrusion and access control systems.

The latest development in the Bosch fire product line is a series of analog fire control systems. The use of analog technology allows improved system expansion and networking capabilities for up to tens of thousands of detection points.
 

The Bosch fire product line includes a wide range of accessories to meet most fire detection applications. All devices are UL Listed and compatibility listed with the appropriate Bosch fire alarm control panel.

Notes on ADDRESSABLE FIRE ALARM PANELS

Addressable fire alarm systems support a variety of installation applications. Many are CSFM and FM approved and conform to NFPA 72. Schools, universities, manufacturing plants and healthcare facilities are some of the more complex installations it is designed to support. You can also choose from a diverse line of Bosch initiating and indicating devices, all backed by an industry reputation for quality. UL Listed for fire, intrusion and fire/intrusion combination. 
 

Accurate information from individual points is communicated to the central station monitoring facility. The detailed reporting capability of a number of panels provide a solution to system service and maintenance problems. The silencing of a "troubled" condition is a common occurrence with fire alarm systems. With certain panels, a maintenance person won't be able to silence a "trouble" condition and forget about it. The location and time of the "trouble" will be reported to the central station and the required action can be taken. The base system configuration supports a high number of points of detection or supervision. Optional accessory modules can expand a system's capability with up to 2,400 detection devices utilizing up to 246 individual reporting addresses. Capabilities and expansion depend upon the panel that is selected.

PROFESSIONAL FIRE ALARM SYSTEMS:  ADDRESSABLE REPORTING CAN SAVE LIVES AND PROPERTY

If a fire alarm is initiated at your location, we'll know the exact point where the alarm originated. And we'll know what kind of event has occurred. That precision can save precious time when firefighters arrive. It is a life safety issue.
