When you purchase a system through Johnson Controls (Simplex Fire Alarm) the engineering and design can be a part of that package.

Submittals will include Datasheets, battery calculations, voltage line drop calculations, Matrix and much more. The submittals from Johnson Controls are very professionally done and we work with Fire Marshals on an ongoing basis.

The fire marshal wants to make sure the system will work and that is why he or she does a final 24 battery test where AC power is pulled or in other words shut off for 24 hours and then the system is put into alarm for 5 or 15 minutes depending on the building. If everything works the calculations were done correctly and if not then bigger batteries or more power supplies need to be added.

Call Larry with any fire alarm questions you have.

Simplex Fire Alarm systems are the best for large installations such as Hotels, Airports, Schools, Data Centers and industrial complexes and any campus that needs their fire alarm networked.
