EST3 Installation and Service Manual 2.11
When this application includes partitions, the partition that
contains the EST3 panel equipped with the 3-MODCOM must
be armed 24 hours a day, and have limited, high-level access.
In mercantile burglar alarm systems, you can locate an alarm
sounding device outside the protected area, provided the
sounding device is located inside the building, is rated for
outside service, and you transmit alarm conditions to one of the
following:
• The dispatch location of the law enforcement agency having
jurisdiction over the protected property
• A central station or residential monitoring station complying
with the Standard for Central Station Alarm Services, UL
827
You can also locate an alarm sounding device within the area of
greatest protection, or outside the area of greatest protection
within an area protected by an alarm system that shares a
common control unit with the alarm system installed in the area
of greatest protection, provided the sounding device is rated for
inside service and you transmit alarm conditions to one of the
following:
• The dispatch location of the law enforcement agency having
jurisdiction over the protected property
• A central station or residential monitoring station complying
with the Standard for Central Station Alarm Services, UL
827
In either case above, mount alarm sounding devices located
inside building at least 10 feet (3.05 m) above the floor or at the
surface of the ceiling. When there is fixed construction within
the area that could provide access for an intruder, mount the
alarm sounding device at least 4 feet (1.2 m) away from the
edges of the fixed construction along the surface of the ceiling or
at least 10 feet (3.05 m) above it so as to minimize access by an
intruder.
Local mercantile alarm certificate
Figure 2-4 shows the equipment that can be used as part of a
Local Mercantile Alarm Certificate installation. The control
panel cabinet must be fitted with an ATCK Attack Kit and a
3-TAMPRCC Cabinet Tamper Switch. A listed local bell is also
required.
The bell requires a tamper detection loop. Both the bell circuit
and the tamper detection loop can be supported by a 3-IDC8/4
module.
