Essential fire system accessories from ESP

ESP reminds installers and wholesalers of some of the fire system accessories in its range that are essential elements to consider when working on a project. These include the fire isolator switch, log book and document box.

Fire isolator switch – with a legal requirement in place to ensure all new fire alarm systems in the UK are fitted with a mains isolator switch, ESP offers a product that meets the requirements of the BS5839 Part 1 standard.

The fire isolator switch provides a secure method of isolating the mains supply feeding a fire system control panel and is crucial for fire system maintenance. The supply can only be isolated by an authorised person, by means of a key lock switch and switching is restricted by key operation. The key is removable in both ON and OFF positions and without the key, a tool would be required to disconnect the power.

Fire safety log book – it is a legal requirement for managers/building owners to take responsibility for the safety within their property. ESP’s A4 log book will ensure system records are maintained in accordance with BS5839-1. The log book will include information on test procedures, frequencies of service and maintenance requirements

Document Box – ESP’s wall-mounted, A4 Document Box is designed to keep vital documents safe from potential damage. It is suitable for fire, emergency lighting and CCTV system documents and keeps them secure in a single location. It features a lockable door, with two keys supplied.
