Potter / Amseco AFC-1000 Fire Alarm Control Panel, Expandable Analog/Addressable, System Capacity of 1270 Addresses
Also known as: AFC1000, PL-AFC1000
Potter / Amseco AFC-1000 1270 POINT ADDRESSABLE FACP
The AFC-1000 is a 1270 address total system capacity extendable analog/addressable fire alarm system. The system can have more capacity thanks to multi-point SLC modules. The exclusive Potter protocol, which uses a full range of sensors and modules, is used by the control panel. There are a total of nine extra addressable Signaling Line Circuits (SLC) that may be added to the system, each of which can support up to 127 devices. Each SLC allows for a maximum impedance of 50 ohms and can utilize any wire that complies with the National Electrical Code. It can be made up of any combination of smoke detectors, heat detectors, or modules (NEC).
Six Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs) and four Input/Output (I/O) circuits make up the AFC-1000's 10 Amp power supply. The I/Os are individually rated for 1 Amp, whereas the NACs are each rated for 3 Amps. Each output has a power restriction and is regulated. Additionally, each output can be individually programmed and can be set to produce a steady signal, synchronize strobes, have constant power, power door holders, or release. Gentex, AMSECO, System Sensor, Cooper/Wheelock, and the proprietary Quadrasync are the strobe synchronization companies. Each output may have a distinct brand, and all strobes will flash simultaneously. The I/Os are made for inputs like abort switches and manual release stations, which respond almost instantly and don't need to be polled.
The PSN-1000 series intelligent power supplies can be used to increase NACs. The AFC-1000 can accommodate up to 31 power supply and each PSN-1000 offers an additional 10 Amps of power and 2 additional input circuits. The strobes will all be synchronized by the system. The PSN-1000E also has room for up to six PAD100-SLCE SLC loop expansion cards to be installed. All SLC circuit connections are accessible thanks to the stacker bracket on which the cards are mounted. |
