General
The NFS2-640 intelligent Fire Alarm Control Panel is part of the
ONYX® Series of Fire Alarm Controls from NOTIFIER.
In stand-alone or network configurations, ONYX Series products
meet virtually every application requirement.
The NFS2-640’s modular design makes system planning easier. The
panel can be configured with just a few devices for small building
applications, or networked with many devices to protect a large cam-
pus or a high-rise office block. Simply add additional peripheral
equipment to suit the application.
A host of other options are available, including single- or multichan-
nel voice; firefighter’s telephone; LED, LCD, or PC-based graphic
annunciators; networking; advanced detection products for challeng-
ing environments; wireless fire protection; and many additional
options.
NOTE: Unless called out with a version-specific “E” at the end of the part
number, “NFS2-640” refers to models NFS2-640 and NFS2-640E; simi-
larly, “CPU2-640” refers to models CPU2-640 and CPU2-640E.
