General
The NFS2-3030 is an intelligent Fire Alarm Control Panel
designed for medium- to large-scale facilities. Fire emergency
detection and evacuation are extremely critical to life safety,
and the NFS2-3030 is ideally suited for these applications. The
NFS2-3030 is part of the ONYX® Series of products from
NOTIFIER. The NFS2-3030 is ideal for virtually any application
because it features a modular design that is configured per
project requirements. With one to ten Signaling Line Circuits
(SLCs), the NFS2-3030 supports up to 3,180 intelligent
addressable devices.
Information is critical to fire evacuation personnel, and the
NFS2-3030’s large 640-character Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
presents vital information to operators concerning a fire situa-
tion, fire progression, and evacuation details.
A host of other options are available, including single- or multi-
channel voice; firefighters telephone; LED, LCD, or PC-based 7070covg.jpg
graphic annunciators; fire or integration networking; advanced
detection products for challenging environments, and many
additional options. NFS2-3030s, DVC audio option at right
