Designed and built in the UK, C-TEC’s powerful touch-screen controlled ZFP addressable panel is fully compliant with EN54-2/4, and, the company says, ‘represents a major breakthrough in fire alarm technology, with its massive capability and flexible modular design’.
With 10 different programmable indicator and switch modules, eight different expansion ‘A-Bus’ PCBs, and two ‘state-of-the-art’ compact mini-repeaters (‘for plush reception areas’) available, systems can be easily and quickly built-up to suit any site, ‘no matter how complex’. Up to 64 eight-loop panels can be interconnected over the ZFP’s highintegrity fault tolerant network. Each has a 4.3 inch full colour touchscreen to provide constant feedback on all aspects of system activity. Alongside a range of ‘standard’ off-theshelf ZFP panels, customers can select a ZFP configuration to exactly suit their requirements for larger, more complex projects. Three master cabinet sizes are available, all with a Control and Display module, a two-loop main PCB, and a 3 or 5A EN54 power supply. Depending on the application and cabinet size selected, additional indicator and switch modules can be added, together with other options such as additional loop drivers, a network card, one or more A-BUS PCBs, flush mounting bezels, ‘and more’.
