One panel, two formats - universal protection
The Eurofire EU24 is the new fire panel from Emergi-Lite Safety Systems' fire safety brand,
Emergi- Fire. By giving users and installers the choice of operating in either ‘2-wire Sensa' or ‘4-wire conventional' formats, Eurofire EU24 offers universal protection on the one panel.
Using a straightforward menu of instructions, users can set up a Eurofire EU24 non-addressable fire detection panel for either the AlarmSense range of 2-wire devices or conventional 4-wire (Orbis or series 65 detectors with conventional alarm devices).
Plus, Eurofire EU24 offers 2-wire and 4-wire system integration - allowing one or more zones in a 4-wire selected system to be set to the 2-wire Sensa configuration, or conversely, can recognise and operate 4-wire zone/s in a 2-wire system.
"Eurofire EU24 is available in 4, 8, 12 or 16 zones of cover, with a nominal 30 devices per zone dependent on the system. Coverage in larger building complexes can be achieved by linking Eurofire panels and repeaters together via a reliable ‘CAN connect' link. The panel also has a programmable non-latching zone feature, providing better connection to existing systems," said David Watton, Emergi-Lite, UK Marketing Manager.
Designed to comply with the European standard EN54 parts 2 and 4, the panel has an easy to reference liquid crystal display allowing up to four lines of text, programmable for each zone. Plus, by using a sounder ‘delay on' facility and zoned ringing, Eurofire EU24 allows users to programme chosen sounders or beacons to activate slightly later than others - helping minimise undue panic, particularly useful in situations such as bars or Soft Play centres.
