Designed for use in areas where hard-wired fire detection is “impossible or impractical”, Apollo said, “XPander devices are ideal for use in historic buildings, remote annexes and temporary structures”.
“Large amounts of cabling for hard-wired fire detection can be impractical where there is a need to protect a building’s interior or where there are many buildings spread across a site,” the company said.
“Temporary structures also require adequate fire protection, yet installing hard-wired technology in these circumstances can be expensive or impractical.”
The extended XPander range comprises an optical smoke detector, a multisensor smoke detector, heat detector types A1R and CS, a wireless base, a manual call point, a sounder and a sounder beacon, and single and dual input/output units. The range has been granted the new wireless link fire standard EN54 Part 25.
