Tyco Integrated Fire & Security is launching the Profile Flexible, said to be the company’s most advanced range of modular fire alarm panels to date. Made to enhance the existing Zettler Profile family of touch screen panels, the new controllers offer a range of innovations and benefits designed to deliver improved fire safety for all typical building engineering applications and challenges.
The design of the Zettler Profile Flexible fire alarm control panel makes it suitable for any industry or environment. Its modular format means it can be expanded quickly and cost effectively, matching changes in fire safety strategies as might be demanded by the evolution of smart buildings, for example. The range combines high fire safety performance and zero false alarm tolerance, with lifetime cost benefits.
The Zettler Profile Flexible fire alarm control panel’s modular design means it can be tailored to specific building and user requirements, whether that be a harsh industrial space or high-end corporate office environment. In addition, the Profile Flexible is thought to be the first fire alarm system that enables the use of every address and all available power across all loops, through a power and address shared transfer capability. Until now, any remaining power is wasted once all the available device addresses have been used up, and vice versa.
With Profile Flexible, spare power and address capacity can be shared across other loops in the same building so that nothing is wasted. In addition, engineers can mix and match individual panels to suit high and standard power loops, each running up to 2km in length.
The panels can also be used as part of a network or as a standalone product. The network capacity seamlessly supports a massive potential of 396,000 addresses. Users can benefit from a reliable network that is large enough to suite all types of locations, from transport hubs to distribution centres.
