NOTIFIER NFW-50X Intelligent Addressable FACP with Communicator

NFW-50X Intelligent Addressable FACP with Communicator

General
The FireWarden-50X (NFW-50X) is the latest intelligent address-able fire alarm control panel (FACP) within the FireWarden Series and is a direct replacement for the FireWarden-50 (NFW-50). The NFW-50X comes with a pre- installed communicator and supports up to 50 addressable devices in any combination of detectors or mod-ules. With an extensive list of powerful features, the NFW-50X pro-grams just like FireWarden-100 products, yet fits into applications previously served only by conventional panels. The pre- installed IPOTS-COM is a dual technology (POTS and IP) communicator. The POTS transmits system status (alarms, troubles, AC loss, etc.) to a Central Station via the public switched telephone network. The IP communicator’s internet monitoring capability sends alarm signals over the Internet saving the monthly cost of two dedi-cated business telephone lines. Although not required, the second-ary telephone line may be retained providing backup communication over the public switched telephone line. Optional cellular reporting is available using the CELL-MOD or CELL-CAB-N. Remote and local programming of the control panel is possible using the FS-Tools Upload/Download utility. Programming databases can be uploaded/downloaded via the panel’s USB port (and USB cable) or via an ethernet connection using the IPOTS-COM communicator. The USB port also allows for the download or upload of the entire program, history file, walk-test data, current status and system volt-ages by means of a USB flash drive. The power supply and all electronics are contained on a circuit board supported on a new quick install chassis and housed in a metal cabinet. Available accessories include local and remote upload/download software, remote annunciators, and reverse polar-ity/city box transmitter (4XTM).
