Flex GF506R Agent Release Control Panel Description General The Flex GF506R is a six-zone FACP used for single and dual hazard agent releasing applications. The Flex GF506R provides reliable fire detection. It also offers signaling and protection for commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings that require agent-based releasing. The Flex GF506R is compatible with System Sensor’s i3 detectors. The i3 detectors are conventional smoke detectors that transmit a maintenance trouble signal to the FACP that indicates the need for cleaning. It also transmits a supervisory ‘freeze’ signal when the ambient temperature falls below the detector rating of approximately 45°F (7.22°C). In addition, the Flex GF506R control panel is compatible with the following conventional input devices: • two-wire and four-wire smoke detectors • pull stations • waterflow devices and tamper switches • other normally-open contact devices For a complete listing of compatible devices, refer to the Gamewell-FCI Device Compatibility Document, P/N: 52195. There are four outputs that are programmable as NACs (Notification Appliance Circuits) or releasing circuits. Three programmable Form-C relays (factory programmed for Alarm, Trouble, and Supervisory), and the 24 VDC special application resettable and non-resettable power outputs are included on the main circuit board. The Flex GF506R supervises all wiring, AC voltage, battery charger, and battery level. The activation of a compatible smoke detector or any normally open fire alarm initiating device will do the following: • Turn on audible and visual signaling devices. • Light an indicator. • Display alarm information on the panel’s LCD. • Sound the piezo sounder at the FACP. • Activate the FACP alarm relay. • Operate an optional module used to notify a remote station or initiate an auxiliary control function.
