C-Tec addressable sounder/strobe or visual Alarm device VAD is a fire safety device that combines an audible alarm (sounder) with a visual alert (strobe light) and is individually identifiable within a fire alarm system. These devices offer features like programmable tones, adjustable volume, synchronized flashing, and often include an onboard short-circuit loop isolator for system integrity. They are designed to alert building occupants during a fire emergency, particularly in noisy environments or for those with hearing impairments.
Description
C-Tec addressable sounder/strobe
key features C-Tec addressable sounder/strobe
- Addressable technology: Each device has a unique address, allowing the central fire alarm panel to pinpoint the exact location of the alarm and control the device individually.
- Combined alerts: They provide both audible (sound) and visual (strobe) alerts to ensure everyone is notified.
- Programmable functions: Users can select from multiple tones and up to seven different volume levels to suit the environment.
- Synchronized operation: The flashing of multiple devices is synchronized to prevent confusion and ensure a clear, distinct alarm signal.
- Low power consumption: The devices are designed for low current draw, making them efficient for use on a fire alarm loop.
- Integrated isolator: Most models include a short-circuit loop isolator as a standard feature to prevent a fault in one device from affecting the entire loop.
- Third-party certified: Many C-Tec addressable sounder/strobes are certified to European standards, such as EN 54-3 (sounders), EN 54-23 (VADs), and EN 54-17 (isolators).
- Voice and tone options: Some models, like the CX voice sounder, can broadcast voice messages in addition to tones.
