Fast and easy installation
Built for speed in every way, the FireFinder system
contains revolutionary SureWire technology that
can help eliminate installation errors and reduce
installation time by up to 25%.
This technology includes:
Device Programmer and Loop Tester Unit
*
(DPU) – FireFinder is the only intelligent system
equipped with this powerful tool that will save
many hours of installation time! The DPU allows
installers to test and verify the correct connec-
tion of devices as they are installed instead of
waiting until the end of installation to test at
the fire panel. It instantly communicates with
devices and confirms whether they’re functioning
properly, reporting individual device addresses,
the type of each device, and a summary of total
devices on the loop according to type (i.e.:
# Manual Stations, # Smoke detectors, etc.).
The DPU will also check detector loops for
ground faults and shorts.
Polarity Insensitive Detector Loop Wiring*–
Another big time-saver, polarity insensitive wiring
allows fire detection devices to operate flawlessly
even when detector and module wiring polarity
are inverted on the wrong screw terminals.
When wiring polarity doesn’t need to be observed,
wiring troubleshooting is greatly reduced.
Ground Fault Detection by Module – Ground
faults are easily the most time-consuming wiring
problem to locate in a detection system. But the
FireFinder system greatly simplifies locating
the problem by identifying the specific pair of
wires that contain a ground fault.
Use of Any Existing Wire – The system can be
connected to existing field device and notifica-
tion circuit wiring, which saves time and money
on retrofits.
**
To further reduce installation
costs, there’s no need for shielded wire on intel-
ligent detector loops, notification appliance
circuits or telephone circuits which may cause
more ground faults.
Windows™ Configuration Program* – A simple,
Windows-based configuration tool makes pro-
gramming faster and easier for all levels of
programmers, from system design engineer
through installing technician. It also allows
configuration programming to be created and
changed in less time.
* Patents pending.
** Use of existing wire requires approval of
local authority having jurisdiction.
