Kidde - Edwards RPM Reverse Polarity Module

Product Description

The KIDDE - EDWARDS RPM is a reverse polarity module designed for use in fire alarm and fire control systems. This accessory modifies the polarity of a supervised circuit, allowing the system to generate a reverse polarity signal as part of its alarm or supervisory output. It is typically installed by licensed fire alarm technicians during system commissioning or when expanding an existing fire control panel setup. The RPM ships as a single unit and fits within the broader category of fire control accessories.

The RPM is suited for commercial and light industrial fire alarm applications where reverse polarity signaling is required as part of the notification or control architecture. It is used during new system installations and retrofit projects where the existing panel or notification appliance circuit requires a polarity-reversal output. Consult the fire alarm system documentation to confirm circuit compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a licensed fire alarm technician in accordance with NFPA 72 and applicable local codes. Power down and fully discharge the fire alarm panel before making any wiring connections. Follow the panel manufacturer's wiring diagrams for proper circuit termination. Do not restore system power until all connections have been verified and the system has been tested per commissioning requirements.
