Product Details for C-TEC Stainless Steel Loop Powered Hush Button (XP95/Discovery Protocol) (XFP508X/SS)
C-TEC's Hush Button was specifically designed to reduce the incidence of false alarms in houses of multiple occupation by providing reliable, fully monitored fire detection, alarm and silencing facilities INSIDE each individual flat or apartment.
It can be looked upon as a miniature loop-powered single zone fire alarm controller that sits and is addressed on an XP95, Discovery or Xplorer analogue loop (see schematic above) with the ability to communicate its status back to the host panel.
Typically one Hush Button is fitted in each dwelling complete with conventional detectors and conventional sounders to provide occupants with a simple means of invoking two types of ‘hushed’ period - see Hush Button Operation section below.
By providing occupants with this level of control over their fire alarm systems, it helps reduce false alarms and prevent unnecessary building evacuations, system vandalism and the likelihood of a true alarm signal being ignored.

|---|
|
> A brushed stainless steel version of C-TEC's Hush fire alarm solution for flats, apartments, HMOs and more.
> Provides an individual HMO dwelling with its own 2-minute silence facility (to BS 5839-6/12.2b) & 15-minute isolate facility (to BS 5839-6/12.2a). > Designed to sit on a communal addressable fire panel’s loop and to communicate its status back to the host panel for building management. > Has its own conventional detector circuit, conventional sounder circuit & loop isolator. > Fully monitored for open & short circuit faults. > Mounts on a standard UK 25mm double gang back box. > Derives its power from the analogue loop. > Selectable 12.5mA, 20mA or 30mA Alarm current (allows up to 20 hush buttons per loop, dependent on loop drive current) > Reduces false alarms and the likelihood of unnecessary building evacuations, system vandalism and the possibility of true alarms being ignored. |
