The Radio Callpoint is battery operated,
incorporating a radio addressable transmitter
thereby eliminating the need for wiring back to
the fire alarm control panel.
The callpoint is designed to meet BS5839 part 2.
The callpoint is fitted into an industry-standard
ABS moulding which allows for testing by
insertion of a test key. When the glass is broken,
the micro-switch is released, triggering an alarm
transmission, by radio, to the alarm panel.
Each unit has a unique address configured during
manufacture and is individually addressable by
the system controller during commissioning. The
unit is programmed to report at regular intervals of
5-9 minutes.
Designed and manufactured using the latest
techniques and surface mount technology
ensures component count is kept to a minimum,
thereby maximising reliability.
The Callpoint is powered by a low-voltage dual
supply Alkaline battery pack. The battery pack
condition is continually monitored. The battery
pack has been tested to provide a typical 5 years
life cycle for normal site operations. The system
indicates remaining battery capacity and a low
battery condition is indicated to the controller as a
fault allowing 30 days for the battery pack to be
changed before unit failure.

Designed and manufactured using the latest
techniques including surface mount technology,
the combined detector/sounder offers easy and
quick installation with the added benefit of a lower
quantity of physical devices required for a system.
The sounder part of the unit consists of its own
integral Alkaline energy source providing a typical
5 year battery life and is remotely activated and
monitored by the System 5000 controller. Each
unit has a unique address configured during
manufacture and is individually addressable by
the system controller.
The address module base is compatible with the
range of System 5000 heads; these include
optical, heat and combined sensor heads.
The sounder element is designed as Omni-
directional with an Output of 90 dBA at 1 metre,
making it ideal for hotels, boarding schools and
nursing homes where a detector and sounder
would be required in each room.
The internal polling of the sensor is every 5
seconds, which accelerates to every 2 seconds
when traces of smoke or heat are detected. The
alarm is then verified twice to ensure freedom
from false alarms.
