The Fire Alarm Control Panel Solution F2
The Concept Solution F2
The LFS “Solution F2“ fire alarm control panel is a new generation, extendable, and ultra-modern fire control panel for small applications. It has been developed to meet international standards and to satisfy specific international requirements at the highest level.
A lot of experience and know-how from the outstanding “Solution F1” fire control panels have influenced the development of this new fire control panel.
Flexibility, especially for connecting different detectors, was one of the most important aims during the development of this new “Solution F2”. Very remarkable: The “Solution F2” fire alarm panel is compatible with the newest analogue addressable sensors of Hochiki and Apollo, two of the biggest and best-known players in the detector market worldwide.
The panel has a standard one-loop module supporting 126 Apollo sensors / 127 Hochiki sensors, plus 127 base sounders (only Hochiki), a power supply unit of 230 VAC / 24 VDC with 2.5 or 3.5 Amps, a control panel with a membrane keypad and graphics LCD module, a USB and RS232 interface, and several inputs and outputs.
The following extension modules are available:
- A second loop module
- I/O interface (2 sounder outputs, 3 relay outputs, etc.)
- RS485 interface card
- 64-zone LEDs modules
Multi-sensor ACC-EN
The convenience features
Depending on the configuration, there is a choice of one of two sizes for the housing. As a standard, the panel already provides a slot for an I-module. That means an analog or ISDN telephone modem can be plugged into the panel. By using the LFS configuration software, the panel can be configured via remote access control. In addition, depending on the card location of the I-module, the new LFS web server can be plugged in. Then you have access to the “Solution F2“ fire alarm panel via any common internet browser.
Signal processing, indications, and operating the panel are exactly according to the EN54 standard. All inputs and outputs are programmable. And for some more comfort, there are soft keys below the LCD module and programmable push buttons for often-used operating functions.
