Overview Features Technical Data Downloads & Resources

The C-TEC 8 Zone AlarmSense Bi-Wire Fire Alarm Kit (with Sounder Beacons) provides a complete solution for starting a larger conventional fire alarm installation.

Kit Contains

1 × C-TEC CFP708 8 Zone AlarmSense Bi-Wire Fire Alarm Panel
3 × Apollo 55000-394APO AlarmSense Optical Smoke Detector with Sounder Visual Indicator Base
1 × Apollo 55000-198APO AlarmSense A1R Heat Detector with Sounder Visual Indicator Base
2 × Apollo 55400-894APO AlarmSense Manual Call Points
2 × 12V 3.2Ah Backup Batteries

Built around the C-TEC AlarmSense control panel and Apollo AlarmSense field devices, the system allows detectors and sounder beacons to operate on the same two-core circuit. This bi-wire technology simplifies wiring, reduces installation time and helps keep installation costs down.

The kit includes smoke detection, heat detection, manual call points and standby batteries, with detectors supplied on sounder beacon bases to provide both audible and visual alarm indication.

With eight detection zones available, the system is well suited to medium and larger buildings where wider coverage and clear audible and visual warning are required.

Complete 8 zone conventional fire alarm starter kit with sounder beacons
AlarmSense bi-wire technology allows detectors and sounders on the same circuit
Combined sounder beacon bases provide audible and visual alarm indication
Reduced cabling requirements for faster installation
C-TEC CFP control panel certified to EN54-2 and EN54-4
Optical smoke detection with integrated sounder beacon base
A1R heat detection with integrated sounder beacon base
Manual call points for manual alarm activation
Supplied with standby batteries for backup power
Suitable for medium to large commercial installations
