1.6.7 AGENT RELEASE MODULE (ARM)
Fike Containers MUST utilize an Agent Release Module (P/N 10-1832) to
supervise the circuit wiring from the container to the control panel. The ARM also
stores the electrical energy needed to actuate the GCA and open the discharge
outlet valve. Agent Release Modules are wired in parallel in either a two-wire
(Class B), or four-wire (Class A) arrangement with a separate return loop. The
ARM provides the means necessary to fully supervise the agent release circuit for
open and ground fault conditions.
