Intelligent/Addressable Devices
‘General
The Notifier NBG-12LX is a state-of-the-art, dual-action (i.e.,
requires two motions to activate the station) pull station that
includes an addressable interface for any Notifier intelligent
control panel except FireWarden series panels, and the NSP-
25 panel. Because the NBG-12LX is addressable, the control
panel can display the exact location of the activated manual
station. This leads fire personnel quickly to the location of the
alarm.
