NFPA Regulations for Fire Alarm Systems Similar to FACP

[EricForControl]

Hello, I am configuring a heat and smoke detector system (named TMS, short for Temperature Monitoring System) inside a ASRS (Stacker Crane with Rack system) rack to be installed in a factory, which is similar to FACP.

It is configured as below, and individual heat and smoke detectors are configured inside the rack and connected via a repeater via RS-485, and the repeater is subordinate to the Main Control Panel of TMS. (TMS is not connected with Factory FACP.)

ASRS (Rack and Stacker Crane) <---(Connected)---> Repeater (Sub Control Panel) <--(Connected)--> Main Control Panel (TMS) <---(Not Connected)---> Factory FACP

Therefore, I have the following two questions and would like to seek expert help.

1. Is there a legal requirement that TMS be linked with the factory's FACP? (NFPA72, etc.)
2. Is there a legal requirement that TMS and heat and smoke detector in TMS must obtain UL864 certification even if TMS is not linked with the factory's FACP?

I would appreciate it if you could give me a clue to solve the above two questions.

Are you using heat and smoke detectors, which usually have to be connected to a fire alarm control unit, or heat and smoke alarms, such as you might find in your house, and using relays connected to their bases?

We using heat and smoke detectors, which usally have to be connected to a PLC in industrial control pannel. But we mounted this sensor where all of ASRS rack area.

All i know NFPA72 is not related about industrial equpiment kind like ASRS.

In my thought our TMS system is coverage by NFPA79.

Could you please give me your thoughts?
