Zeta IN16 | Conventional Fire Alarm Panel | Expandable 8-16 Zones, EN54 Certified
£350.00 (inc VAT: £420.00)
Summary
The Zeta Infinity 16 (IN16) is an expandable conventional fire alarm control panel designed for straightforward installation, commissioning, and day-to-day operation. Housed in an aesthetically considered ABS cabinet, the IN16 is equally suited to new installations and system upgrades where reliability and simplicity are essential.
Starting at 8 zones as standard, the panel can be expanded up to a maximum of 16 zones through the addition of up to two plug-in expansion modules, offering flexibility as protection requirements grow. Each conventional zone supports up to 32 devices, and the panel arrives fully functional straight from the box — by default, all sounders and outputs activate on alarm with no complex initial configuration required.
Certified to EN54-2 and EN54-4 by APPLUS, the IN16 meets the demands of modern fire detection installations and provides a dependable, code-compliant solution for a wide range of commercial and light industrial applications.
