Important Considerations:

  • For very detailed engineering specifications, it is always recommended to refer to the official Notifier documentation.
  • The specifications can vary slightly depending on the specific model and configuration of the NFS-640.

Key Certifications and Approvals:

  • UL Listings:
    • This is paramount. The NFS-640 is UL Listed, primarily under UL 864, 9th Edition (Fire). This signifies its compliance with fire alarm system standards.   
    • Additionally, it may hold other UL listings, such as UL 1076 (Burglary) and UL 2572 (Mass Notification Systems), depending on the specific configuration.
  • Other Approvals:
    • CSFM (California State Fire Marshal): Compliance with California’s fire safety regulations.   
    • FDNY (Fire Department of New York): Approval for use in New York City.
    • City of Chicago approvals: Meeting the city’s fire safety standards.
    • Marine Applications: there are approvals for use within marine applications, such as US Coast Guard.   
    • Seismic Certifications: The device can be certified for seismic applications.
