The Eaton Bi-Wire Flexi Fire Alarm Panel offers the best of both worlds, combining two-wire and conventional technology in one powerful unit.
Each zone can be individually configured to accept either type of wiring, allowing you to mix conventional and two-wire devices across your installation. This flexibility makes it ideal for both new installs and retrofit projects, where existing wiring or devices need to be integrated.
The panel uses the same intuitive interface as the popular 8 Zone Conventional Panel, making setup and maintenance simple for installers.
Certified to EN54 Parts 2 and 4, and designed to meet BS 5839 recommendations, the Bi-Wire Flexi panel provides reliable fire detection that complies with current UK fire safety standards.
Whether you're saving time with two-wire loops or utilising specialist conventional devices, this panel adapts to suit the job.
Supports both conventional and two-wire detection on the same system
Each zone configurable independently
Compatible with a wide range of devices
Easy-to-use interface for fast setup and servicing
Ideal for mixed-system upgrades and phased retrofits
Certified to EN54 Parts 2 & 4
Meets BS 5839 fire safety recommendations
