NFS-320 Intelligent Addressable Fire Alarm System (3 loop)
- The NFS-320 intelligent Fire Alarm Control Panel is part of the ONYX® Series of Fire Alarm Controls from NOTIFIER. In stand-alone or network configurations, ONYX Series products meet virtually every application requirement.
- The NFS-320’s modular design makes system planning easier. The panel can be configured with just a few devices for small building applications, or networked with many devices to protect a large campus or a high-rise office block. Simply add additional peripheral equipment to suit the application. Wireless fire protection can be added with the SWIFT wireless gateway and devices. For installations using NFS-320C, an optional ACM Series annunciatorcan be mounted in the same cabinet (up to 48 zones/points, order separately; see DN-60085). NOTE: Unless called out with a version-specific “R”, “C” or “E” at the end of the part number, “NFS-320” refers to models NFS-320,NFS-320R, NFS-320C, and NFS-320E.

Primary input power
– NFS-320: 120 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 5.0 A.
– NFS-320E: 220/240 VAC, 50/60 Hz, 2.5 A.
Current draw (standby/alarm):
– NFS-320(E) board: 0.250 A. Add 0.035 A for each NAC in use.
– KDM-R2 (Backlight on): 0.100 A.
• Total output 24 V power: 6.0 A in alarm.
NOTE: The power supply has a total of 6.0 A of available power. This is shared by all internal circuits. See Installation Manual for a complete current draw calculation sheet.
• Standard notification circuits (4): 1.5 A each.
• Resettable regulated 24V power: 1.25 A.
• Two non-resettable regulated 24V power outputs:
– 1.25 A.
– 0.50 A.
• Non-resettable 5V power: 0.15 A.
• Battery charger range: 18 AH – 200 AH. Use separate cabinetfor batteries over 26 AH.
• Float rate: 27.6 V.
