Fire Alarm Systems Design and Maintenance Training Class   DESCRIPTION: A fire alarm system is only as good as each of its parts. It is important for all personnel involved in any phase of the system to know the needs and responsibilities of others in the process. A system that is designed with maintenance schedules and accessibility in mind will be a better maintained and, therefore, more reliable system. Installers who know the NFPA codes and standards that apply to system design will understand why a certain item or placement is specified, and so on. The purpose of this class is to provide a survey of all aspects of Fire Alarm Systems: design, installation, approval, special applications, and maintenance. A variety of equipment is used for demonstration. Lab sessions and homework assignments provide practical application of the seminar topics. WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Anyone who is responsible for Fire Alarm System planning, plan review, equipment specifications, installation, acceptance, operation, and maintenance. TOPICS: Overview of Fire Alarm Systems Operating Principles, Placement, and Installation of Initiating Devices and Notification Appliances Operating Principles, Design Considerations, and Connection Diagrams of Typical Control Panels System Design Reporting/Receiving Equipment Types Testing Troubleshooting Maintenance FEE: $1000.00 COURSE NUMBER: 020-000-00 CLASS LIMIT: Class size is limited to 32 students.
