Apollo XPA-CB-14017-APO XPander Heat Detector (A1R) with Sounder Base

The Apollo XPA-CB-14017-APO is an XPander wireless combined unit: an XPander heat detector (class A1R, rate-of-rise) fitted to a sounder base, giving detection and audible alarm from one point with no cabling to the loop.

XPander is Apollo's wireless range: devices communicate with an XPander interface wired to an XP95 or Discovery loop, using a bi-directional monitored radio platform at 868MHz, and each device is recognised by the control panel like any wired loop device. It suits heritage and architecturally sensitive buildings, rapid retrofits and temporary systems where cabling is impractical.

Key features

• XPander heat detector (class A1R, rate-of-rise)
• EN54-5 A1R heat detection
• Integrated sounder with selectable volume (74dB(A) / 87dB(A))
• Wireless: bi-directional monitored radio platform
• Sounder self-test
• Approved to EN54-3, EN54-5 and EN54-25

Technical specifications
