SK-2 & SK-4 Series Manual — P/N 52604:B 9/14/2010

Section 1: Product Description

The SK-2 is a two zone FACP (Fire Alarm Control Panel) and the SK-4 is a four zone FACP. The
information in this manual refers to both the SK-2 and SK-4 unless otherwise specified. These
control panels provide reliable fire signaling protection for small to medium sized commercial,
industrial and institutional buildings. The FACP is compatible with System Sensor’s i

3

detectors

which are microprocessor-based conventional smoke detectors that can transmit a maintenance
trouble signal to the FACP indicating the need for cleaning and a supervisory ‘freeze’ signal when
the ambient temperature falls below the detector rating (refer to System Sensor’s i

3

Installation and

Maintenance Instructions document I56-1800-00 for device specifications). In addition, the control
panel is compatible with conventional input devices such as two-wire smoke detectors, four-wire
smoke detectors, pull stations, waterflow devices, tamper switches and other normally-open contact
devices. Refer to the Silent Knight Device Compatibility Document for a complete listing of
compatible devices.

Outputs include one NAC (Notification Appliance Circuit) on the SK-2 and two NACs on the SK-
4. Each FACP has a Form-C Alarm and Trouble relay and 24 VDC special application resettable
power. In addition, the SK-4 has a Form-C Supervisory relay and a nonresettable special
application power output. The FACP supervises wiring, AC voltage and battery level.

Activation of a compatible smoke detector or any normally-open fire alarm initiating device will
activate audible and visual signaling devices, illuminate an indicating LED, sound the piezo
sounder at the FACP, activate the FACP alarm relay and operate an optional module used to notify
a remote station or initiate a auxiliary control function. The SK-2E and SK-4E offer the same
features as the SK-2 and SK-4 but allows connection to 220/240 VAC.
