Honeywell FF8 Notification Appliance Circuit (NAC) Power Supply

The FireForce 8 (FF8) is a Notification Appliance Circuit (NAC) extender panel designed to extend the power capabilities of existing NACs and provide power for other ancillary devices. The FF8 will connect to any brand of UL-Listed Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) to provide Notification Appliance Circuit expansion. Designed with advanced switch-mode power-supply technology, the FireForce 8 provides filtered and electronically regulated power distributed to four NACs. Each NAC is rated at 3.0 Amp maximum, aux power rated 1.5 Amp, with a total output capacity of 8.0 Amp. The outputs may be configured as: four Class B (Style W, X, Y); or two Class A (Style Z); or two Class B and one Class A; or four Class A (Style Z) with the optional Class A adaptor installed. The FF8 includes an internal battery charger.
