Product Details for C-TEC ActiV 'C Class' Base VAD c/w Voice Sounder (BF457C/CC/W)
The ActiV Base Mount range of conventional voice sounders and combined voice sounder visual alarm devices (VADs) are designed for use with C-TEC’s range of fire panels and other compatible third-party panels. However, compatibility testing with third-party panels is recommended to ensure correct operation.
Their purpose is to visually and audibly alert building occupants of a fire alarm.
All bases can be optionally used as either:- a stand-alone base device using a separately available locking white cap (Part No. BF330CTLIDW) / red cap (Part No. BF330CTLIDR), or
- a combined base device and detector (detectors are separately available and wired on a separate detection circuit). The base devices are compatible with C-TEC’s range of ActiV conventional detectors and other compatible third-party suppliers.
The bases offer low current consumption, high sound output, high efficiency VADs, four selectable primary tones with selectable secondary tone set, seven selectable messages, two selectable volume levels and three selectable VAD flash rates. Tones, messages, volume levels and VAD flash rates are changed using the base’s 8-way DIP switch.
Certification to EN 54-3 (Sounders) and EN 54-23 (Visual alarm devices - VADs) is pending.
