Emergency control functions allow a fire alarm system to communicate with your commercial building’s system to assist in the evacuation process of building occupants. The emergency control functions communicate signals to the Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) if certain areas of the building need to be restricted or shut down to prevent a fire or smoke from spreading.
The fire alarm control panel works by integrating numerous valves, sensors, and devices that detect smoke, temperature, pressure, and humidity and work cohesively to ensure the safety of building occupants.
