Johnson Controls, the globally renowned company in smart, healthy, and sustainable buildings solutions, has announced the release of the Zettler Profile Lite range of addressable fire alarm control panels, to the Asia Pacific markets.

The two new addressable panel models, Pro215 Lite and Pro415 Lite have color LCD screens with 32 zonal LEDs integrated into a simple interface, which helps reduce operator errors. Both Profile Lite panel models feature red housing options, ideal for facilities that require the fire alarm control panel to be easily and quickly noticeable, by first responders and rescue personnel.

The panels can be easily localized, which helps the user perform correct actions. Features, such as remote connectivity and backwards compatibility, make the panels a future-proof fire and life safety solution, for a wide range of commercial buildings. The Pro215S Lite and Pro215S Lite Red are two-loop, networkable panels with shallow housing. They support two standard power loops or one high power loop, with a maximum of 250 addresses.

The Pro415S Lite and Pro415S Lite Red are four-loop, networkable panels with shallow housing. They support four standard power loops or two high power loops with a maximum of 500 addresses. The Pro415D Lite offers the same loop capacity as the Pro415S Lite, but with deep housing for additional batteries.

Robust lop protocol support

The Zettler Profile Lite range of addressable fire alarm control panels is supported by a robust loop protocol that can operate in the harshest environments.

To simplify system upgrades, existing cables can be re-used, which also significantly reduces the cost of replacing a system. The panels provide ample loop power, so as to meet the increasing demand for visual alarms, in addition to traditional audible alarms.

The new Profile Lite panels provide flexibility to end-users, contractors, and installers, in terms of hardware configuration, scalability, and feature set,” said Peter Hauser, Senior Global Product Manager, Fire Detection Products, Johnson Controls.

High-quality fire detection technology

Peter Hauser further stated, “Designed and manufactured in Europe, these panels offer high-quality fire detection technology, for a wide range of applications, at an ideal lifecycle cost.
