Description

The Residential Fire Safety System BARFS-1 complete with compatible smoke / heat alarms and auxiliary devices provides a complete single zone automatic fire detection and alarm system for residential applications. The BARFS-1 is designed to meet the requirements of the Building Code of Australia - (Smoke Alarm System) and incorporates smoke alarms to Australian Standard AS3786; heat alarms to Australian Standard AS1603.3.

The BARFS-1 system consists of a control panel, operator module which provides both status indication and function controls, smoke and heat alarms. A pillow shaker and strobe are available for the hearing impaired or deaf. The 200 series smoke and heat alarms are designed to be installed in conjunction with the BARFS-1 control panel as an external power source. The BARFS-1 system has a generic input/output module as an alarm zone device; it enables remote control of ancillary equipment, interfacing to sprinkler flow switch/any dry contact input, provides alarm relay contacts and a non supervised 12V alarm output.

The connection between the operator module and control panel is via RS485, which allows the operator module to located remote from the control panel itself, an advantage in multi-storey dwellings. A maximum of 2 operator modules can be fitted to the system. The power supply of BARFS-1 is fully supervised for fault condition; mains fail, battery disconnected, charger high or low and battery low. The alarm zone wiring is supervised for both an open or short circuit condition.

The BARFS-1 has both an alarm and fault output for either remote monitoring and/or the operation of ancillary equipment. For an alarm condition; two priorities can be selected. Priority 1 activates the alarm output relay and initiates the sounder in each smoke/heat alarm. Priority 2 activates only the smoke/heat alarm sounders. An important feature of the BARFS-1 is its ability to discriminate between the activation of a smoke or heat alarm. This combined with the alarm priority selection enables enhanced flexibility in system design to overcome the effects of nuisance alarms and provide for the integration of the BARFS-1 to other alarm systems. BARFS-1 provides not only a truly “Deemed to Satisfy Solution” but includes additional functions and facilities to allow design flexibility for customising the installation to the application.
