Product Focus

1-2 Loop 64 Zone digital protocol panel

2012 will see the launch of the new Notifier Pearl Panel

This is Notifiers most advanced system yet and boasts some impressive statistics from the 1 or 2 loop launch panels;

1. 318 devices per loop (Split between modules and detectors), this could save
2. Full utilisation of the Notifier innovations such as the Smart 3* and Smart 4** detectors
3. Backwards compatible with older CLIP devices and impressively the ID3000 networks
4. Loop powered remote indicators, these can be wired anywhere on the loop and be programmed to operate upon the activation of any detector

Installation innovations

The new generation of radio system

FireCell is a fully analogue addressable fire detection system with a set of features making it one most advanced fire detection systems available – all without the need for cable.

The standards changed in March 2011 and although the Firepoint 5000 remains in service for additions and temporary solutions, the new FireCell uses the new EN54 868 frequency which is required to comply with the incoming standards, what this means for the user is that the best selling radio solution in the UK has;

• Highly developed in the UK  and as a consequence has improved speed of operation and synchronisation of sounders
• Comes as standard with wired loops with the control panel meaning that the system is now more flexible for the user
• The system can now run a combination of wired and wireless devices all reporting back to a single control point
• Improved range of sensors with addition of Apollo (The UK based industry leader in smoke and heat detection manufacturing) devices to the range
• Retains the use of Alkaline batteries – which makes commercial sense not just for the price but the sheer availability for the customer providing choice and not tying the customer to limited providers
• All manufactured in the UK, with the manufacturer supporting the radio surveys and with a massive 5 year product warranty

EN54 Compliance in one complete system

The systems incorporate industry standard sensors and each device is powered with an alkaline battery pack. The devices communicate with the controllers using secure, fully compliant, dual frequency signalling.

The system consists of the following components:

analogue addressable fire sensors are based on industry standard devices.

The sensors have no visible aerials and are low profile, aesthetically pleasing designs. Each device is powered by an alkaline battery pack.

Providing reliable fire detection solutions for most applications the comprehensive sensor range includes:

Smoke Heat and Multisensors

• Optical smoke
• Heat
• Multi-Sensor, combining both smoke and heat
• Combined Sensor with Base Sounder or Voice Sounder, available with either smoke, heat or multi-sensor heads
• Combined Sensor with Base Sounder or Voice Sounder, available with either smoke, heat or multi-sensor heads and an LED strobe

Today (Monday 15th February 2010) Notifier launched the ground breaking digital protocol of automatic detection called OPAL

Notifier's new OPAL digital detection range

The product is a revolution for the Notifier brand and is in fact two protocols in one, the traditional CLIP protocol and the new digital OPAL protocol.

What does this mean for the users?

The new range can be used on the existing Notifier systems as CLIP protocol and in the newer panels can fulfil the potential that the OPAL range has to offer including;

The new protocol will provide up to 318 devices per loop (On the new panel range), increasing the loop loading capacity, built in loop isolators and advanced fault finding capabilities designed to speed up troublesome wiring issues during the ever pressured commissioning stage of the new installation.

The use of intelligent systems in the UK has seen some changes throughout the history of automatic fire detection and alarm systems and now WFP are pleased to be able to offer this new and powerful digital protocol to our customers.

Please call our office and ask how the new digital system can provide a fire detection and alarm solution for you.  0845 481 0307.

The ID range of  Notifier (by Honeywell) products offers a solid and reliable product to the end user, the specifier can be assured that the product will perform and for installers a user friendly addressing system that can be explained over the phone or during the pre-installation visit by the WFP surveyor.

ID 3000 Multiloop networked panel

Key advantages of Notifier (by Honeywell)

1. Long Term - Its tried and tested and is based on a platform of backwards compatibility, in short its here for the long term

2. Easy set up -  It is a solid analogue system using a simple dial address setting

3. Reliable – Backwards compatibility is a key strength of the Notifier product and recently we have upgraded Notifier systems that were installed over fifteen or twenty years ago.

The older range of Notifier systems include;

ID 200, ID 1000, AFP panels

4. The Brand – Solid and good quality

The current ID range consists of the ID50, ID60, ID2000 and the superb ID3000.

The ID50 is the entry level single loop addressable control panel running the SDX-751 optical smoke detector, for greater cause and effect programming the ID60 is available in the single loop market. If you need greater device loading then the multi-loop ID2000 can cost effectively run up to eight loops and for the larger and more complex multiloop sites the ID3000 is available.

XPander – Wire-Free devices on a Wired system

Wire-Free fire alarm devices on a wired loop

Radio devices that can now be connected to an existing fire detection system running the world class Apollo XP95 protocol.

If the panel that is installed runs this protocol then the XPander  product can be used.

WFP are at the forefront of utilising technology to the benefit of our customers and are pleased to announce that following an evaluation period and full product training by the manufacturer we can now offer a hybrid solution for our customers.

• Temporary building works
• Temporary buildings within schools
• Aesthetically sensitive buildings
• Asbestos issues affecting a wired solution

XPander is a system in which individual detectors, call points and alarm devices communicate with the XP95 loop by radio signals. An interface is connected to the loop in the same way as any other interface, such as an Input/Output Unit.

Radio on wired

Every XPander device is assigned an address and this address is recognised by the control panel in the same way as is the address of any device connected directly to the loop wiring.

The XPander range consists of:

• Optical Smoke Detector
• Multisensor Smoke Detector
• A1R Heat Detector
• CS Heat Detector
• Sounder
• Sounder Beacon
• Manual Call Point
• Interface Module
