C-TEC launches FastConvert addressable zone converter

C-TEC has launched a new addressable zone converter.

FastConvert from C-TEC is a four to eight-way conventional to addressable zone converter.

Designed to simplify fire alarm system retrofit

The system is designed to facilitate the fast conversion and upgrade of a multi-zone conventional fire system to an addressable CAST system utilising pre-existing wiring.

It is fully compatible with C-TEC’s XFP and ZFP CAST fire systems and its award-winning CAST-PRO combined fire detection and alarm devices.

Andy Green, C-TEC’s Marketing Director, said: “FastConvert is a clever innovation designed with the installer in mind. As fire detection and alarm technology has 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 an ingenious retrofit upgrade solution which can utilise a conventional system’s existing zone wiring whilst maintaining compliance with BS 5839-1.”

Webinar to demonstrate upgrade solutions

C-TEC will be hosting a webinar on FastConvert’s features on Thursday, April 23 entitled “Need to upgrade your fire detection and alarm systems? We can save you thousands!”.
