Description
The Notifier FCM-1 Intelligent Addressable Control Module enables precise and reliable supervision of external load devices including horns, strobes, bells, or relays that require independent power sources. It allows a fire alarm control panel to manage the activation of these devices while continuously monitoring the circuit for integrity.
Designed for use in Class A or Class B supervision configurations, the FCM-1 is ideal for systems requiring reliable notification control and feedback. It features rotary address switches for easy programming, low standby current to optimise power usage, and a panel-controlled LED for real-time status indication.
The FCM-1 mounts in a standard 4-inch junction box, simplifying installation and retrofitting in both new and existing fire alarm systems. This module is compatible with NOTIFIER’s intelligent fire alarm control panels, making it a flexible and robust solution for commercial and industrial fire protection applications.
Key Features:
- Supervised control for horns, strobes, bells, and other external devices
- Class A or Class B operation for flexible system design
- Two isolated Form C contacts switched on panel command (unsupervised)
- Panel-controlled LED for clear status monitoring
- Rotary address switches for easy device configuration
- Low standby current reduces system power load
- SEMS screws simplify wiring and installation
- Mounts in standard 4˝ electrical boxes for ease of deployment
The Notifier FCM-1 is a reliable, intelligent module that enhances fire system flexibility, offering clean integration and dependable control for critical alarm notification devices.
