C-Tec 8 Zone AlarmSense Control Panel – CFP708-2

Description

The C-Tec CFP708-2 Two-Wire 8 Zone AlarmSense Control Panel offers a cost-effective and reliable solution for modern fire alarm installations. Certified by the LPCB, this advanced panel has been engineered for seamless compatibility with Apollo’s AlarmSense range, including detectors, call points, sounders, and beacons. Unlike traditional systems that require separate wiring pairs for detection and alarm devices, AlarmSense technology allows both to be connected on a single pair, using distinct voltage bands. This simplifies the design, reduces cabling needs, and ensures dependable performance across a wide range of applications.

When integrated into a fire safety system, the AlarmSense Control Panel CFP708-2 significantly cuts down on installation time, delivering up to 25% savings in labour compared with conventional four-wire setups. Its adaptability makes it suitable for compliance with both BS 5839-1 and BS 5839-6 standards, particularly in Houses of Multiple Occupation where efficiency and reliability are crucial. Designed for ease of use without compromising safety, this two-wire control panel provides a flexible, streamlined, and professional-grade solution for installers and property managers alike.
