Merlin FAB-1 Fire Alarm By-pass System

Merlin FAB-1 Fire Alarm By-pass System

The Merlin FAB-1 is a fire alarm bypass panel. The Merlin FAB-1 is designed to allow gas to remain on- for a pre-determined time during a fire alarm test. The FAB-1 should be activated before a fire alarm test to allow the gas supply to remain on.

This is done by turning the key switch on the fascia of the panel, a countdown timer is activated. The countdown timer can be adjusted inside the panel to allow the gas supply to remain on for between 10 and 45 minutes.

When the FAB-1 is in operation the panel will beep every 20 seconds until there is 5 minutes before the end of the timeout, the FAB-1 will then beep every 10 seconds and the bypass LED will start to flash.

During the bypass time gas can still be shut off, pressing the emergency shut off button will close the gas solenoid valve. It is recommended that the user reads this guide before using the system. Please do NOT attempt to operate the unit until the contents of the document have been read and are thoroughly understood.

A Gas Safe installer would be required to fit the gas solenoid valve. Check the register at www.gassaferegister.co.uk.
