Information

A high-quality programmable multi-sensor fire detector for use with C-TEC’s XFP & ZFP ‘CAST’ protocol Addressable Fire Panels. LPCB certified to EN54-5, 7 & 17 and CEA 4021. Also Kiwa Telefication certified to EN54-13. Onboard programmable heat & smoke sensors make it deal for detecting a wide range of fires whilst also reducing false alarms. Multiple sensitivity/sensor settings. Smart algorithms help reduce false alarms. Drift compensation functionality. Short circuit loop isolator. Includes two 8mm x 2mm ultra-bright red LED indicating strips. Different sensitivities can be selected for different times of the day (day/night, building occupied/unoccupied etc). 5mA typical alarm current (370uA typical quiescent current) @ 22-40V DC. Programmable multi-function status LED. Compatible with C-TEC’s CA408 CAST base c/w integrated locking mechanism & ID tag. ‘CAST’ is the world’s most-advanced ‘distributed intelligence’ fire alarm system protocol. Conceived, designed and realised by C-TEC as part of a five-year, multi-million pound project, it involved the creation of a powerful proprietary communication protocol (C-TEC Addressable System Technology, CAST) and multiple control panels & field devices. Key features include: * 255 devices per loop. * Autonomous decision-making for faster response times. * Multiple type codes. * 40V loop drive voltage. * Two ‘soft’ addressing options – automatic via the panel or manual via a powerful handheld programmer. * Powerful multi-level addressing facilitates easy device addition and swapped device identification. * Multiple functionality at a single address (integrated devices) * Volumes, tones & detector modes can be changed at compatible panels. * High-speed data transmission and robust data transfer. * Intrinsically EN54-13 compliant. * Provides geographical location of short and open circuit faults (a short circuit isolator is included as standard in every CAST field device). * Replace device function. * Programmable multi-function status LED. * Future seamless integration with other CAST life safety systems reducing energy, servicing, installation and repair costs. * Designed and manufactured in the UK.
