1. PURPOSE

1.1 Scope

Non- personal Service. This Statement of Work (SOW) provides for the purchase and installation of this life safety mission critical specification for a commercial off the shelf (COTS) fire stations alerting (FSA) system to be installed in two fire stations. This new FSA system shall be a “Phoenix G2” brand system or equal. It shall be capable of interfacing to, and receiving alerts from a data network, radio network, and two-tone paging system. The system shall be based on standard EIA/TIA 568-B Category 6 data network cabling and RJ-45 Data connectors it shall be installable by a low voltage-cabling contractor. The alerting system shall, where specified, accommodate connections to existing and separately contracted systems such as lighting control, telephone paging, voice radios, doorbell buttons, and other devices. These systems and their installation will be specified in other sections and provided by the owner or other trades. Where applicable, the FSA will adhere to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards reference at https://www.nfpa.org/Codes-and-Standards .

Objective: the objective of this SOW is to document the requirements to Engineer, Furnish, Install, and Test (EFI&T) and sustain a Phoenix GS, or equivalent, COTS FSA for two (2) fire stations at Misawa AB

1.2 Background

The currently deployed system was installed in 2001 is outdated and beyond its service capability.

This was demonstrated when fire station 2’s system went out of service for 8 months in 2017 due to the lack of available spare parts. The new FSA system will include audible & visual devices that will deliver automatic dispatch alerts in multiple voice options to one or multiple stations in less than a one second. This will help reduce or eliminate patient ‘on-hold’ time & shave valuable seconds—even minutes—off of response times. It will also increase firefighters' mental preparedness with clear and consistent vocalization of the alert, which helps units respond more quickly and efficiently. Heart attacks are the second leading cause of deaths for firefighters. This system will reduce cardiac stress, anxiety, optical shock and sleep deprivation with ascending tones and zoned alerting. It will also increase firefighter health, safety, and quality of life. This system will meet NFPA, related Technical Implementation Guides (TIG), and Occupational Safety & Health Agency (OSHA) requirements. Misawa AB F&ES cannot guarantee 24/7 system operations & is in direct violation of NFPA 1221 chapter 6

6.2.3 The above list it is not an all-inclusive list as it does not include all items for a complete installation such as mounting brackets, cable runs and other items to provide a secure and professional install of the equipment.

6.3 Rough Openings

A. The Station Alerting Controller only requires a rough opening if mounted exposed in a 19” rack cabinet. The ATX is normally surface wall mounted.

B. Room Remote– For Flush mount option a 4 Gang Box using a rough opening of 2 ¾ “ H x 7 3/8” W. Surface mount application a back box. Installers must note on their station walk through if the Room Remote will be a Surface or Flush mount application. Install Instructions can be provided on request.
