Overview

The FC440SB is an addressable sounder base specifically for use with the FireClass addressable detectors. The base incorporates a fire alarm sounder that carries its own address so it can be monitored and controlled from the fire alarm control panel, which is independent of the detector fitted to the base. Both power and communications for the sounder and detector are provided by the digital loop. This helps to reduce installation costs as no additional wiring is required. Additionally, the FC440AIB houses an addressable LED beacon to provide a visual indicator otherwise known as a VID.
