Global fire systems leader Advanced has extended the range of its QuickZone range of conventional and twin-wire fire panels by adding a 16-32 zone option. This complements the existing 2-4 and 4-12 zone options and significantly enhances the versatility of the panel range.
QuickZone offers a choice of three control panels, allowing installers to specify the system that best matches their performance and price requirements. QuickZone (2-4 zones) is the most straightforward of the two and is appropriate for quick, simple installations. QuickZone XL (4-12 and now 16-32) has a rich array of features that can support passive or fully-functional repeaters; it is ideal for larger conventional or twin-wire installations with more involved programming and configuration requirements. QuickZone XL also offers zone expansion cards and a range of installation features including earth bars.
Both product lines are approved to EN54-2&4 and are quick to install, quick to configure and quick to maintain. They also both feature false alarm management functions according to one of three different modes, as described in EN54-2. QuickZone supports mode A while QuickZone XL supports modes A, B and C. False alarm management can be selected for individual zones on both panels.
