Introduction
Wire free fire system technology is fast becoming
a recognised and accepted alternative to wired
fire alarm systems. Tyco Safety Products Radio
Fire Alarm System provides a level of performance
and reliability comparable to hard-wired systems.
It also has the added advantage of being totally
flexible, quick and easy to install with virtually no
damage or disruption.
This enables the installation of a fire alarm system
to be carried out in an occupied building where
cabling is unacceptable, unwelcome, disruptive or
impracticable. The cost of “making good” and
redecorating is significantly reduced with wire free
systems.
Radio Systems are highly cost effective and can
easily be modified or extended to combine with
existing hard wired systems. A system can be
tailored for use in any existing building to meet
highly individual needs for many commercial and
industrial applications. Regarding fire detection,
the radio system can be considered to be
identical to a hard-wired system, with the fire
survey carried out to the same standards.
The Radio Survey
It is important that a radio survey is carried out by
trained personnel on all sites, before a complete
system quotation can be made.

Note: The system elements and associated
product codes described in the Wire Free section
relate to the UK frequency variants as approved
by the Home Office for use in “low powered”
systems in the UK. 173 MHz (field devices) and
459 MHz (battery powered sounders). These
frequencies may be suitable for applications in
other countries. Please contact Tyco Safety
Products for further information.
The System 5000 FIRE POINT is designed using
EMS radio technology allowing flexibility and
expansion of wire-free fire detection systems. The
controller’s features have been targeted, but are
not exclusive to, a 4-zone panel system but with
the added benefits given by wire-free installation.
The fire alarm control panel incorporates state of
the art radio technology coupled with the features
required providing the user with a cost effective
and practical fire alarm panel.
The System 5000 FIREPOINT uses approved
industry standard devices such as callpoints,
sounders and Ziton detectors etc.
The addressable detector is alkaline battery
powered with a 5 year typical life cycle including
call points and sounders.
The panel technology is designed to meet the
requirements of the BS5839 and EN54 standards
and has been fully tested by the DTI to satisfy the
requirements of MPT 1305 and 1328 radio
standards. VHF technology for receiving
information from devices is combined with UHF
(at 500mW) for command signals to radio
sounders and personal pagers.
