Global Fire VULCAN 2 Addressable Base Beacon with Isolator (VULCAN2-ABI)

The Global Fire Equipment VULCAN 2 ABI is an addressable base beacon with a built-in loop isolator. It is a detector base with a visual alarm, for GFE addressable fire alarm panels such as the G-One, GEKKO and OCTO+.

It can be set up in the field as a shadow device, with no address of its own so more addresses are free for detectors, or as an auxiliary device that shares the address of the detector fitted on it. Addresses are set with DIP switches.
