FM200 Fire Fighting System Gas Extinguishing Fire Suppression System Control Panel

The FM200 is a fire suppression system that uses a clean agent, FM-200, to extinguish fires. The control panel is the central management interface for the FM200 system.

The FM200 control panel typically includes the following key features and functionalities:

Monitoring and Status Display: The control panel provides real-time monitoring of the FM200 system's status, including fire detection, agent release, and system faults. It often features a LCD display or touchscreen interface to show the current state of the system.

Alarm Annunciation: When the FM200 system detects a fire, the control panel triggers audible and visual alarms to alert occupants and emergency personnel. This can include activating sounders, strobes, or other notification appliances.

Agent Release Activation: The control panel is responsible for initiating the release of the FM-200 agent when a fire is detected. This is typically done through a manual pull station or automatic activation from the fire detection system.

Fault Reporting: The control panel continuously monitors the FM200 system components, such as detectors, valves, and power supplies, and reports any faults or issues that arise. This allows for quick troubleshooting and maintenance.

Programmable Logic: The control panel often includes programmable logic capabilities, allowing the system to be customized to specific site requirements. This can include setting activation delays, agent discharge times, and integrating with other building systems.

User Interface: The control panel provides a user-friendly interface for operators to interact with the FM200 system. This may include buttons, switches, or a touchscreen display for accessing system menus, acknowledging alarms, and performing tests or system checks.

Power Management: The control panel manages the power supply to the FM200 system, ensuring that the clean agent and associated components are ready for immediate activation in the event of a fire.

The specific features and layout of the FM200 control panel may vary depending on the manufacturer and the size or complexity of the overall fire suppression system. It's important to refer to the manufacturer's documentation and training materials for detailed instructions on the operation and maintenance of the particular FM200 control panel installed in your facility.
