The Fairbanks Command and Data Acquisition Station (FCDAS) is a 24-7 satellite tracking station operated by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in support of NOAA environmental monitoring spacecraft. As part of its safety, FCDAS utilizes a Fire Control System. These components provide communication between the Ft. Wainwright Fire Department and the FCDAS Fire control systems panels in several structures. Loss of communication creates an elevated risk to the station as most of the buildings are unoccupied and rely on automated systems for protection. NOAA/NESDIS/FCDAS under the Office of Satellite and Product Operations requires materials and labor to replace Monaco Smoke Detectors, Pull Station with Addressable Module, Monaco Horn Strobe, Monaco ADC Addressable Circuit Card, Installation of Conduit and wiring to connect to the Power House Panel, Programming, Testing and Startup. located at NOAA Fairbanks Command and Data Acquisition Station at 1300 Eisele Road, Fairbanks AK 99712. All materials and labor are to replace the obsolete Monaco Smoke Detectors, Pull Station with Addressable Module, Monaco Horn Strobe, Monaco ADC Addressable Circuit Card, Installation of Conduit and wiring to connect to the Power House Panel, Programming, Testing and Startup. The Monaco fire alarm panel is one side of the fire alarm link. The Fort Wainwright fire department has a matching system that receives signals from the FCDAS system. FCDAS must continue to use the Monaco product in order for the fire alarm notification system to work. No other brands can be substituted, or be modified to work with the fire department's system. The installer must work with the fire department to test successful installation of the unit and confirm that the fire department can receive.
