Where size matters

October 2008 Fire & Safety

The Syncro AS is part of a range of open protocol fire alarm control panels fully compatible with existing Syncro fire alarm panel technology.

Now available with two or four detection loops capable of hosting up to 240 Argus Vega devices per loop, Syncro AS uses leading edge microprocessor-based electronics to provide a flexible control system with high reliability and integrity.

Suitable for all small, medium and large sized fire detection systems, Syncro AS control panels can also be networked to become part of much larger systems if the need arises, providing a future-proof solution for almost any installation. With its large graphical display and ergonomic button and indicator layout, the Syncro AS control panel is simple and straightforward to understand for installers, commissioning engineers and end users alike.

Says Peter Dalgety, fire product manager at ADI International, "The Syncro AS was launched in October last year and has been very popular. I think the fact that it is so user-friendly has been a big factor in its success." He adds, "This is a new product launch in the South African market. The Syncro is very popular in Europe and following their success we decided to introduce the Syncro AS here." Like the well-proven and popular Syncro, the Syncro AS now supports 'Open-Ended' networks - it is no longer essential to have the network as a closed 'loop'. This allows panel replacement without rewiring, in network systems wired with this topology. The Syncro AS also supports numerous new devices from Kentec's detector partner, Argus Security.
