Monitoring Panels
A hazard monitoring panel with associated logic modules shall be provided by
Contractor. The panel shall be located in a remote control room. The panel shall
include an annunciator in addition to acknowledge, reset, test, keylock bypass, and all
instrument/control systems interface termination.
Contractor shall also provide a remote annunciator for location in a remote fire station
office. The fire station annunciator shall fully duplicate the alarm features of the
control room annunciator, but shall only include the lamp test function feature.
