Kentec two and four-loop Syncro AS panel - where size matters

December 2007 Fire & Safety

The Syncro AS is part of a versatile 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 in any configuration, Syncro AS uses microprocessor-based electronics to provide a flexible control system with high reliability and integrity.

Suitable for all small- to large-size fire detection systems, Syncro AS control panels can also be networked to become part of much larger systems if the need arises, therefore 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.

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' which enables network systems wired with this topology to have the panels replaced without re-wiring.

The Syncro AS also supports numerous new devices from Kentec's detector partner, Argus Security. The Argus range offers a complete solution of hardwired and wireless devices and sensors. All devices and sensors have built-in isolators which not only increase the loop integrity but also makes fault finding easier. The Argus range also has a Décor range available which supports 14 standard colours and any other design or colour required from customers with a minimum order quantity of 50.
