Description
- KS-CALL-POINT-W-SCI is a weatherproof addressable manual call point with built-in short circuit isolator (SCI), fully compatible with Hochiki’s ESP Analogue Addressable Protocol and Kentec’s Taktis and Syncro AS product ranges.
- KS-CALL-POINT-W-SCI provides manual activation of the fire alarm system by pressing the non-frangible element. The non-frangible element provides easy activation and quick and easy reset following activation using the special test key. The test key can also be used to activate the device without pressing the frangible element.
- KS-CALL-POINT-W-SCI has an LED status indicator which provides notification of the device state i.e. Polling, Fire or SCI active. By default the LED will flash red when polling, which confirms the device is communicating with the control panel. The polling function can be turned off if required through the Kentec control panel settings – perfect for applications where a flashing LED may be a distraction such as hotel rooms, theatres etc. In a fire condition the LED will be a continuous red, if the short circuit isolator has been activated the LED will show amber.
- KS-CALL-POINT-W-SCI is provided in a red modified polyphenylene oxide surface mount housing which has an IP rating of 67, making it suitable for external use or internal areas where jetwashing is carried out. An optional hinged cover can be fitted to the KS-CALL-POINT-SCI to help deter malicious activation or prevent accidental activation.
- KS-CALL-POINT-W-SCI requires a single loop address programmed via the TCH-B200 programmer and programming lead PL3.
