3 FPA‑1000 Analog Addressable Fire Panels

On-board Relays

Three programmable on-board relays default to global alarm (zone 226), global system trouble (zone 227), and global system supervisory (zone 228). They can be programmed to activate on a variety of conditions including gas alarm.

Option Bus

On the Option Bus, the FPA-1000 supports:

•up to eight FMR-1000-RCMD Remote Command Centers and FMR-1000-RA Remote Annunciators in any combination

•up to eight D7030X Series LED Annunciators with eight LED zones each,

•up to eight D7030X Series/D7032 combinations

•up to two Octal Relay Modules or Octal Driver Modules

•up to four FPP‑RNAC‑8A‑4C Remote Notification Appliance Circuit Power Supplies.

The outputs of the Octal Relay Modules or Octal Driver Modules are fully programmable, and can be activated by system events. These outputs have the same programming options as the local relays. Each output operates independently of the other seven to provide complete flexibility. Communication with the D7035/B or D7048/B is supervised.

Power

A transformer working with 120 VAC or 240 VAC is supplied standard with the control panel. Two backup batteries with 7 Ah to 18 Ah each fit inside the fire panel cabinet. A separate battery box can provide higher capacity. An automated battery calculator sheet is available online to aid in battery selection and submittal paperwork.

The FPA-1000 panels provide two auxiliary power supplies (one FWR and one DC) with 0.5 A at 24 V each, with switchable AUX/RST. This auxiliary power can run expansion boards or other low current auxiliary devices.

For installations requiring battery capacity higher than 40 Ah, a regulated and UL1481 Listed external power supply can be used. The external power supply connects through the panel's battery terminals and is supervised for AC and battery fault by an input module on the SLC.

The FPP-RNAC-8A-4C Remote NAC Booster adds four additional Notification Appliance Circuits (NFPA 72, Class A Style Z or Class B Style Y) to the fire panel or serves as a power supply for fire protective signaling systems. This regulated power supply provides up to 8 A of power that is used to recharge batteries and operate continuous and intermittent alarm loads. This 8 A of power can be distributed through the four NAC Power Supply circuits that are part of the FPP- RNAC-8A-4C. The FPP-RNAC-8A-4C is UL Listed for use in commercial fire alarm applications.

Signaling Line Circuits (SLCs)

The FPA‑1000 Fire Panels communicate with each of the analog addressable devices located on the SLCs. The SLCs allow the use of standard non‑twisted, non‑shielded wiring. Each panel supports two Class B, Style 4 or one Class A, Style 6 or 7 per SLC.

Installation/Configuration Notes

Mounting Considerations

The cabinet can be either semi-flush (requires optional FPM‑1000‑SFMK Semi-flush Mounting Kit) or surface mounted.

Depending on the configuration and the battery selection, the FPA‑1000 can be quite heavy. When attaching the enclosure to a surface, use mounting hardware (not supplied) capable of supporting this weight, and reinforce the wall as necessary.

Wiring Considerations

The length of wire allowed between the control panel and the last device on a wiring run depends on the current drawn on that wiring run. Reducing the number of devices on a wiring run allows the individual runs to be longer.

If not otherwise specified, use wire gauge 12 AWG to 18 AWG (3.3 mm2 to 0.8 mm2).

Notice

Shared cable is not recommended for the Option Bus, addressable‑points bus, telephone, or NAC wiring. Do not run wiring for NAC, Option Bus, and SLC in the same conduit. Avoid shielded or twisted-pair wire except for network connections and special applications where a reduced length of wiring (roughly 50%) is acceptable for tolerating a harsh electrical environment.

Point Capacity/Configuration

Each FPA-1000-V2 panel supports up to 508 addresses, 254 per loop. For addresses above 127 on each loop, only the FAA‑325‑B6S Sounder base, FAP‑325‑V2F Smoke Detector, FLM‑325-I4‑A, FLM‑325‑I4‑AI, and FLM-325-IM Contact Monitors, FLM‑325‑NA4 and FLM‑325‑NAI4 Supervised Output Modules, FLM-325-2R4-2A and FLM‑325‑2R4‑2AI 2 A Dual Relay Modules, and FLM‑325‑2R4‑8A and FLM‑325‑2R4‑8AI 8 A Dual Relay Modules can be used. For systems requiring more than 127 points per loop,
