C-TEC has launched FastConvert, a four to eight-way conventional to addressable zone converter.
Designed to facilitate the fast conversion and upgrade of a multi-zone conventional fire system to an addressable CAST system utilising pre-existing wiring, FastConvert fills the gap in the market for a solution which enables engineers to carry out speedy and economical upgrades of conventional to more sophisticated and powerful addressable systems.
Andy Green, C-TEC’s Marketing Director said: “FastConvert is designed with the installer in mind. As fire detection and alarm technology have improved, more and more sites are looking to upgrade their old conventional systems to addressable, not just because the conventional devices are reaching end of life, but also because an addressable system can identify the precise location of a fire or fault, facilitate sophisticated cause and effects and reduce false alarms.
“We are definitely seeing this in schools, care homes and hotels where FastConvert is coming into its own as a retrofit upgrade solution which can utilise a conventional system’s existing zone wiring whilst maintaining compliance with BS 5839-1.”
C-TEC will be hosting a webinar on FastConvert’s features on 23 April entitled “Need to upgrade your fire detection and alarm systems? We can save you thousands!”. Sign up for your free place here
