The C-TEC ZFP2L/X is a 2-loop ZFP touchscreen-controlled addressable fire alarm panel, supplied as the blank-module variant (Z41 touchscreen control module with ZBLANK blank modules, no additional zone LED or switch modules fitted). It drives Apollo XP95 and Discovery protocol detectors, call points and interfaces, and accepts standby batteries from 7Ah up to 38Ah.
Key features
- Touchscreen-controlled addressable fire panel from C-TEC’s ZFP range
