About this file
This is a Technical Specifications document for a Fire Detection and Alarm System (Addressable) at Tinker Air Force Base, Oklahoma, dated April 2019 (Section 28 31 64.00 10).
The specification requires a complete, supervised, addressable fire alarm reporting system configured in accordance with NFPA 72. The system must be microcomputer-based with individual addressability for all alarm initiating devices and notification appliances. Key components include a modular control panel (UL 864 compliant) installed in a flush or surface-mounted red steel cabinet; 24 Vdc rechargeable sealed lead-calcium batteries with 72-hour standby capacity plus 15-minute full alarm operation; automatic battery charger; addressable manual fire alarm stations (double-action type, red finish, mounted at 48 inches); fire detecting devices including heat detectors, photoelectric smoke detectors, ionization detectors, combination smoke/heat detectors, flame detectors (IR/UV types), and duct detectors; and notification appliances including alarm bells, horns, chimes, visual strobes (85 dBA minimum output), and voice evacuation systems. The system must support looped conduit design, Class A and B circuit configurations, HVAC shutdown, elevator recall, and fire suppression system integration. All wiring must be solid copper in metallic conduit with color coding; conduit compliance to NFPA 70, UL 6, UL 1242, and UL 797; and surge protection per IEEE C62.41.1/C62.41.2. The contractor must provide qualified personnel including a Registered Professional Engineer with four years' fire protection design experience and NICET Level 4 technician supervision, submit detailed shop drawings signed by a PE or NICET Level 4, and furnish two percent spare detectors (minimum two each type) and spare fuses mounted in the panel. Training requirements include three days total (1 day expansion/modification, 2 days maintenance, 1 day operations) with six copies each of maintenance and operating manuals. Preliminary and acceptance testing per NFPA 72 is mandatory, with 60-day advance submittal of detailed test procedures and final submission of NFPA 72 Certificate of Completion and testing reports documenting all functional and operational performance verification.
