1. POWER CALCULATION SHEET The Power Calculation Sheet on the following page lists the supervisory and alarm current requirements of the System 3 equipment and modules and can be used to determine the power needs of a specific system configuration.
The US Coast Guard requires that two Batteries of 28 AH are also compatible with sources of power be available to the smoke System 3 systems, Model No. BTX-1. (See detection system. Usually this will be the main Spec Sheet Catalog No. 3361.) and standby generators.
