In fire protection, system performance is only one part of the equation. Installation, maintenance, accessibility, and adaptability all play an important role in the long-term value of a fire protection system.
With TOTALPAC® 4, FireFlex® Systems takes the integrated-system concept further, combining a more compact design, simplified installation, improved service access, and greater configuration flexibility in one integrated platform.
Building on the advantages of factory assembled, integrated fire protection systems, TOTALPAC® 4 introduces a series of design and functional improvements that help simplify the work of contractors and service professionals while adapting to the evolving needs of buildings.
The Power of 4
Simplicity. Efficiency. Flexibility. Innovation.
4× the Simplicity
A More Compact Design Without Compromising Functionality
Space is an important consideration in mechanical rooms and other areas dedicated to fire protection equipment. TOTALPAC® 4 features a redesigned cabinet that is more compact, lighter, and sturdier than its predecessor.
Its simplified trim and smaller-footprint Viking VXD/VXR valves help optimize the system's overall footprint while accommodating its integrated components and functionality.
The cabinet also features removable side and rear panels, providing easier access to internal components when installation, inspection, or maintenance is required. This thoughtful design helps make the system easier to work with throughout its service life.
Designed for a Wide Range of Applications
TOTALPAC® 4 is designed to support fire protection requirements across a variety of applications where protecting people, property, equipment, and operations is essential.
Its integrated design and flexible configuration options make it a solution to consider for applications such as:
- Cold Storage and Freezers: Environments where low temperatures can influence fire protection system requirements.
- Process Rooms: Facilities where specialized equipment and operational processes require appropriate fire protection.
- Healthcare Facilities: Environments where protecting occupants, critical equipment, and essential operations is a priority.
- Server Rooms: Spaces housing IT infrastructure and equipment that support business continuity.
- Storage Applications: Areas where stored materials and inventory require suitable fire protection measures.
By combining an integrated design with adaptable configurations, the T4 can support a range of project requirements. The appropriate system configuration should always be selected based on the specific hazards, environmental conditions, and applicable fire protection codes and standards.
4× the Efficiency
Simplifying Installation and Maintenance
Integrated fire protection systems are designed to consolidate components into a factory-assembled package. TOTALPAC® 4 builds on this approach by simplifying the system's mechanical arrangement and improving accessibility.
The streamlined trim and redesigned cabinet help make installation more efficient, while removable panels allow installers and service technicians to reach internal components more easily.
TOTALPAC® 4 also incorporates the FLX-PC controller, which consolidates several traditional devices into one unit. It provides real-time pressure monitoring, compressor run-time information, and compressor run-frequency data, giving users greater visibility into key system operating parameters.
In addition, NFPA-related requirements, including monitored solenoid supervision and the releasing-circuit disconnect switch, are integrated into the system rather than treated as separate field additions. This approach helps simplify system integration and reduces the need to manage these features as separate components.
4× the Flexibility
Greater Flexibility for Changing Building Needs
Buildings evolve, and their fire protection requirements may change as spaces are renovated or repurposed. A system that can adapt to these changes offers practical advantages for contractors and building owners.
TOTALPAC® 4 is designed to support dry, single-interlock preaction, and double-interlock preaction configurations without changing the mechanical trim components.
This flexibility can simplify system selection, reduce the variety of components required, and make it easier to adapt the platform to changing project requirements. In certain applications, this can help accommodate changes in the use of a protected space without requiring a complete mechanical trim redesign.
4× the Innovation
Engineered for the Entire System Lifecycle
The benefits of an integrated fire protection system extend beyond its initial installation. Accessibility, Monitoring, and Adaptability can also influence ongoing service and maintenance.
By combining a compact cabinet, improved access to internal components, integrated monitoring, and adaptable configurations, TOTALPAC® 4 addresses practical considerations throughout the system lifecycle.
For contractors, the design supports installation and service workflows. For facility managers and building owners, integrated monitoring and adaptable configurations can help simplify the management of fire protection equipment as operational needs evolve.
The Next Step in Integrated Fire Protection
TOTALPAC® 4 represents the next step in the evolution of integrated fire protection systems from FireFlex® Systems. It builds on the advantages of factory integration while advancing the design, accessibility, monitoring, and flexibility that matter to the professionals who install and maintain these systems.
From a more compact cabinet to integrated control and adaptable configurations, TOTALPAC® 4 brings together practical improvements designed to make integrated fire protection easier to install, easier to service, and better suited to changing building requirements.
