FAAST Configuration and Validation Process

Intelligent Device Guidelines

The correct power up sequence for an Intelligent FAAST device is to ﬁrst apply external power to the FAAST device, followed

by connecting the signaling line circuit connection. Set the address on the device using the Fire Alarm Control Panel menu

or through the conﬁguration tab in PipeIQ. All other installation instructions should be followed per the installation manual

included with the device.

Preparation for Testing

Prior to any test of a building’s ﬁre alarm system, all occupants should be notiﬁed, in accordance with NFPA 72. This ensures

that everyone is aware of what is going on and the testing can be conducted efﬁciently. Typically, a team of two performs

testing of a FAAST device, with one technician remaining at the detector to verify test results, while the other technician intro-

duces the canned smoke Before these tests are carried out, ensure that the room or area being protected is in its operational

state in terms of airﬂow, temperature and cleanliness. Any air handling units should be running, all ﬂoor and ceiling tiles

should be installed and any equipment producing a heat load should be in its normal operating mode.

• Ensure compliance to the relevant standard is being achieved and that sample holes meet the minimum requirements.

• Ensure the installation matches the design created in PipeIQ.

• Perform a visual inspection of the physical installation checking adequate size batteries are used, piping is securely

connected and installed, and all holes are correct in number, spacing, orientation, and size. Hole size can be veriﬁed

using a drill bit or ruler.

• Be aware of the local codes and standards as applicable to the customer site.

Items Required for Testing:

• PipeIQ Pipe Layout Report for unit under test

• Aerosol smoke for general smoke detector testing (Home Safeguard Industries Model 25S or equivalent)

• Stopwatch capable of measuring 1 second intervals

Testing Procedure for FAAST:

1. Ensure that the local ﬁre panel and any automatic extinguishing or suppressant systems are either disconnected or

isolated from external reporting equipment Introducing smoke will cause relays and signals to activate those systems,

unless the system is in isolate mode.

2. Establish that the system is working normally by observing the user interface.

3. Locate the ‘Layout Details’ table from the PipeIQ Pipe Layout Report noting the transport time for the farthest hole on

each pipe network on the FAAST commissioning form (see screenshot in Appendix A on page 2). The farthest hole

needs to be tested for transport time. All other holes need to be veriﬁed for airﬂow.

a. Introduce canned smoke (Home Safeguard Industries Model 25S or equivalent) directly into the sampling hole in to

farthest sample hole for a duration of 2 seconds at a distance of 6 inches from the sample hole. Start the timer once

the smoke has been introduced.

b. Stop the timer once the ﬁrst particulate bar is illuminated on the front of the device above what was displayed during

normal device operation. The device need not go into alarm to verify the transport time – an increase on the particu-

late meter is a successful measurement of transport time.
