It ships with a 10A power supply and six Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs) rated at 3A each, plus four Input and Output (I\/O) circuits rated at 1A each. The panel operates on the exclusive Potter protocol, which supports a full line of compatible sensors and modules. Each output is regulated, power-limited, and independently programmable for steady signal, strobe synchronization, constant power, door holder power, or releasing operation. Licensed fire alarm technicians and low-voltage contractors perform installation and commissioning.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe afc-1000 is suited for commercial and educational occupancies requiring a scalable, addressable fire alarm system. Expansion is achieved by adding up to nine additional Signaling Line Circuits (SLC), each supporting a maximum of 127 devices for a combined total of 1270 addresses. Each SLC accepts any combination of smoke sensors, heat detectors, and modules, allows up to 50 Ohms of impedance, and accepts any wire compliant with the National Electrical Code (NEC). NAC capacity can be expanded using PSN-1000 series intelligent power supplies, with the system supporting up to 31 PSN-1000 units, each adding 10A of power and two additional input circuits. The PSN-1000E variant also accommodates up to six PAD100-SLCE SLC loop expansion cards.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eTotal system capacity of 1270 addresses across up to ten SLC loops\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e10A onboard power supply with six 3A NACs and four 1A I\/O circuits\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eEach output is independently programmable for steady, strobe sync, constant power, door holder, or releasing modes\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eQuadrasync strobe synchronization supports Gentex, AMSECO, System Sensor, and Cooper\/Wheelock devices simultaneously with unique brand assignment per output\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eI\/O circuits respond nearly instantaneously to non-polled inputs such as manual release stations and abort switches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSupports up to 31 PSN-1000 series power supplies for NAC and SLC expansion\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCompatible with PAD100-SLCE SLC loop expansion cards installed in the PSN-1000E\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe afc-1000 operates exclusively on the Potter protocol and is compatible with the Potter line of addressable smoke sensors, heat detectors, and modules. Strobe synchronization is supported for Gentex, AMSECO, System Sensor, and Cooper\/Wheelock notification appliances. NAC expansion is achieved using PSN-1000 series power supplies, and SLC expansion is supported via PAD100-SLCE loop expansion cards installed in the PSN-1000E.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eInstallation Notes\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eInstallation must be performed by a licensed fire alarm technician or qualified low-voltage contractor in accordance with NFPA 72 and all applicable local codes. Disconnect all power sources, including the standby battery, before making any wiring connections to the control panel. SLC wiring must comply with NEC requirements for the wire type and routing used. Programming and commissioning should be completed and verified before the system is placed in service.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSystem Address Capacity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1270 addresses\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOnboard Power Supply\u003c\/strong\u003e: 10A\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNotification Appliance Circuits (NAC)\u003c\/strong\u003e: 6, rated 3A each\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInput\/Output (I\/O) Circuits\u003c\/strong\u003e: 4, rated 1A each\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSLC Loops\u003c\/strong\u003e: Up to 10 total (1 onboard plus 9 expansion), 127 devices per loop\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaximum SLC Impedance\u003c\/strong\u003e: 50 Ohms per loop\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSupported Power Supply Expansion\u003c\/strong\u003e: Up to 31 PSN-1000 series units\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Series\u003c\/strong\u003e: AFC\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/strong\u003e: US\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: POTTER ELECTRIC SIGNAL\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: afc-1000\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"POTTER ELECTRIC SIGNAL","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51621164450098,"sku":"AFC-1000","price":1847.48,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/potter-electric-signal-afc-1000-fire-alarm-control-panel","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
