The Kentec Sigma CP-A KA11080M2 is an 8 zone conventional fire alarm control panel for the Apollo AlarmSense two-wire system, certified to EN54-2 and EN54-4. AlarmSense lets compatible smoke and heat detectors, call points, sounders, sounder beacons and alarm relays share a single pair of wires on each zone, so separate sounder circuit cables are not needed. The panel has an integral, mains-powered power supply and battery charger.
Key features
- Complies with EN54-2 and EN54-4
- 8 AlarmSense zones for Apollo AlarmSense detectors, call points, sounders, sounder beacons and alarm relays
- Zoned or two-stage sounder operation without separate sounder cabling
- Priority/non-priority sounder scheme: only the sounder local to the activated detector can be set to operate first, subject to a configurable alarm verification period; suited to Houses of Multiple Occupation and full compliance with BS 5839-6
- Configurable alarm verification delay of 30, 60 or 120 seconds
- Dedicated (common) sounder outputs in addition to the zonal sounders
- Volt-free fire, local fire and fault relay contacts
- Test mode with automatic resetting of zones for testing
