Detectors are often installed in buildings where wiring presents a challenge. This could be because the fabric of the building or its design will be negatively affected by the use of cables. It is sometimes very difficult to introduce cable runs into buildings which were not designed for the modern age. It is for these architecturally sensitive buildings that XPander has been developed. XPander is a system in which individual detectors, call points and alarm devices communicate with the XP95 loop by radio signals. An interface is connected to the loop in the same way as any other interface, such as an Input/Output Unit. Every XPander device is assigned an address and this address is recognised by the control panel in the same way as is the address of any device connected directly to the loop wiring. THE XPANDER RANGE CONSISTS OF... • Optical Smoke Detector • A1R Heat Detector • CS Heat Detector • Sounder • Sounder Beacon • Manual Call Point • Interface Module The inclusion of alarm devices such as the sounder beacon help make XPander systems compliant with the Disability Discrimination Act. PRODUCT FEATURES • Easy to install • XPERT card addressing • Self-monitoring • Proven technology • No special control panel needed • 868MHz radio channels • Up to 32 devices per interface • Up to 5 interfaces per loop • Analogue addressable system expansion • Wireless • Eliminates cabling difficulties • Minimises building disruption • Enables Rapid Retro-fit • Preserves aesthetics All detectors within the XPander range are sold with mounting bases TYPICAL APPLICATIONS XPander can be incorporated into fire detection systems where the use of fire cables is either impractical or undesirable, including stately homes and architecturally sensitive buildings. Please note: • A site survey is required on all wireless equipment prior to installation • A free design service is offered upon receipt of contract awarded - for further details contact our sales office on 0845 884 7000
