DF-60238:A2 • A2-350
General
The MRP-2002 is a six-zone FACP for single and dual hazard
agent releasing applications. The MRP-2002 provides reliable
fire detection, signaling and protection for commercial, indus-
trial and institutional buildings requiring agent-based releasing.
The MRP-2002 is compatible with System Sensor’s i3 detec-
tors which are conventional smoke detectors that can transmit
a maintenance trouble signal to the FACP indicating the need
for cleaning and a supervisory ‘freeze’ signal when the ambi-
ent  temperature  falls  below  the  detector  rating  of  approxi-
mately   45°F   (7.22°C).   In   addition,   the   control   panel   is
compatible  with  conventional  input  devices  such  as  two-wire
smoke  detectors,  four-wire  smoke  detectors,  pull  stations,
waterflow  devices,  tamper  switches  and  other  normally-open
contact  devices.  Refer  to  the  Fire•Lite  Device  Compatibility
Document for a complete listing of compatible devices.
Four  outputs  are  programmable  as  NACs  (Notification  Appli-
ance  Circuits)  or  releasing  circuits.  Three  programmable
Form-C  relays  (factory  programmed  for  Alarm,  Trouble  and
Supervisory)  and  24  VDC  special  application  resettable  and
non-resettable  power  outputs  are  also  included  on  the  main
circuit board. The MRP-2002 supervises all wiring, AC voltage,
battery charger and battery level.
Activation  of  a  compatible  smoke  detector  or  any  normally-
open fire alarm initiating device will activate audible and visual
signaling devices, illuminate an indicator, display alarm infor-
mation  on  the  panel’s  LCD,  sound  the  piezo  sounder  at  the
FACP, activate the FACP alarm relay and operate an optional
module used to notify a remote station or initiate an auxiliary
control function.
The  MRP-2002E  offers  the  same  features  as  the  MRP-2002
but allows connection to 220/240 VAC. Unless otherwise spec-
ified, the information in this data sheet applies to both the 110/
120 VAC and 220/240 VAC versions of the panels.
