Polarized NAC outputs of the HCVR-3 Releasing
Appliance Fire Control Panel accept devices that are
Requirement polarized only. A trouble condition is
reported when non-polarized NAC devices
are connected to these NAC outputs.
Field connections must include
symbol-markings for plus (+) and minus (-)
on all polarized appliance terminations.

NAC Synchronization

The HCVR-3 Releasing Fire Control Panel supports special

application outputs of NAC 1 and NAC 2 when operating:
 Amseco NAC devices with Amseco synchronization
modules
 Gentex NAC devices with Gentex synchronization modules
 System Sensor NAC devices with System Sensor
synchronization modules
 Wheelock NAC devices with Wheelock synchronization
modules

NAC channels 1 and 2 of the HCVR-3 Releasing Fire Control

Panel provide single and dual circuit synchronization. Single
circuit synchronization provides a synchronized output on one
channel of two NAC channels. Dual circuit synchronization pro-
vides a synchronized output on NAC 1 and NAC 2.

Maximum Current

A maximum current of 1.5 Amps is available for powering

NAC 1, NAC 2 and NAC 3 when a maximum load of 500 mA
exists on any one of the NAC outputs.

 Notification Appliance Circuit
The following statements for NAC synchronization are
necessary for UL qualification and exclude device-loading
combinations that are common in most FACP installations:

Amseco NAC 1 and NAC 2 of the HCVR-3 Releasing

Fire Control Panel can each operate a
maximum of seven Amseco SL-1224 strobes
when configured for 15cd outputs and
synchronized with an Amseco SMD10-3A
synchronization module.

Gentex NAC 1 and NAC 2 of the HCVR-3 Releasing

Fire Control Panel can each operate a
maximum of six Gentex GES3-24 strobes
when configured for 15cd outputs and
synchronized with a Gentex AVSM
synchronization module.

System NAC 1 and NAC 2 of the HCVR-3 Releasing

Sensor Fire Control Panel can each operate a
maximum of eight System Sensor S1224MC
strobes when configured for 15cd outputs and
synchronized with a System Sensor MDL
synchronization module.

Cooper/ NAC 1 and NAC 2 of the HCVR-3 Releasing

Wheelock Fire Control Panel can each operate a
maximum of eight Cooper/Wheelock
RSS-24MCW strobes when configured for
15cd outputs and synchronized with a Cooper/
Wheelock SM-24 synchronization module.

 Notification Appliance Circuit
NAC outputs of the HCVR-3 Releasing Fire Control Panel are
not limited by conditions other than the maximum rated current
threshold. NAC outputs of the HCVR-3 Releasing Fire Control
Panel can operate combinations of Hochiki authorized NAC
devices as long as the circuit load does not exceed 500 mA.
Reference manufacturer data sheets for individual device loads
and then total the loads to determine if the sum exceeds the
500 mA threshold of each NAC output.
