The FC442AVB is an addressable open class VAD sounder beacon specifically for use with FireClass addressable detectors. The base incorporates a fire alarm sounder, carrying its own address which can be monitored and controlled from the fire alarm control panel independently of the detector. Both power and communications for the sounder and detector are provided by the FireClass digital loop.
