My custom FACP and pull station design

This is my homemade panel design and pull station design.(I have not made these yet)


Specs: 10 zones minimum, but can go up to 30. Can have multiple emergency types. Can use Alterator C-Series indoor multi-signal horns. It also has automatic door release and can support agent release. I will list more once I figure out what they are. (Any input is appreciated)

Cool. What about agent release, and door release?

Those are good ideas. I hadn’t thought about agent release and door release. I will add that.

Door release should be green, agent release should be red.

Here is the updated picture with door release and agent release added:


Also do you have any suggestions for what I should use to make the electronics of the panel?

Yellow and blue can serve multiple purposes too.

My design, totally made-up & not achievable through individual efforts.

What other purposes can they serve?

Medical alert. I meant that the blue pull station could do lockdown, medical, and tornado, and the yellow one could also do tornado.

That’s interesting, I didn’t know that pull stations could be used for so many different things.

Yeah. It’s very interesting. With that many purposes, I’d recommend that your panel has a priority 2.

That’s a really cool user interface. Is it a touchscreen?

Exactly! The USB ports underneath work as a failsafe option - you can plug in a generic mouse and continue to operate the panel if the touch is not responding.

It looks a tad cluttered though

Here is a bit of an update which includes the model numbers and all the multi-signal horns.

I would also like to add that there are 5 possible signals: alert, wail, pulse, pulse wail, and air horn. The signals can be set to mean different emergencies.

Will there be any visual signals?

Yes there will be. I’m still in the process of designing them and will give an update when they are done. There will be remote versions and versions that can be paired with horns.
