This item is not available to purchase online.
Summary
The EMS FireCell FC-41-0202 Wireless Dual Input/Output Device delivers reliable, flexible fire system integration where conventional cabling is impractical or cost-prohibitive. Combining supervised dual inputs and volt-free changeover outputs in a single compact enclosure, this device is engineered for seamless deployment across hybrid and fully wireless fire detection systems.
Powered by three CR123A lithium cells, the FC-41-0202 offers up to 10 years of service life under normal operating conditions, with integrated battery health monitoring to ensure ongoing system reliability. Its UL94 5VB fire-rated PC and ABS enclosure carries an IP65 protection rating, making it suitable for a wide range of indoor environments.
Fully compatible with the EMS FireCell ecosystem, the device communicates wirelessly at 868 MHz with the fire control panel via a Fusion RLM in hybrid systems or through a FireCell Wireless Hub and RCC in fully wireless configurations. Third-party EN 54-18 and EN 54-25 certification confirms compliance with European fire detection standards, providing assurance for system designers and installers alike.

FAQ
What fire system is the FC-41-0202 compatible with?
The FC-41-0202 is compatible with the EMS FireCell fire detection system. It communicates wirelessly with the fire control panel via a Fusion RLM in hybrid systems, or via a FireCell Wireless Hub and RCC in fully wireless system configurations.
How long do the batteries last and what type are required?
The device is powered by three 3V CR123A lithium manganese dioxide batteries, each with a minimum capacity of 1550 mAh. Under normal operating conditions, the batteries provide up to 10 years of service life. Certified compatible batteries include Duracell DL-123A / CR-123A Intense and Panasonic CR-123 PA / BD.
What are the input and output specifications?
The FC-41-0202 features 2x resistor monitored inputs for supervised device connections and 2x volt-free changeover relay outputs, each rated at 1A at 30 VDC. Outputs can be programmed individually or as part of a group, and the device supports simultaneous or independent input/output operation.
Is an auxiliary relay module available for mains switching applications?
Yes. An optional auxiliary relay module (FC-620-001) is available separately, supporting 230 VAC switching for applications requiring mains-level output control.
What certifications does the FC-41-0202 hold?
The device is third-party EN certified to EN 54-18 (input/output devices) and EN 54-25 (components using radio links), and carries CE and UKCA marking. Its Declaration of Performance reference is DoP0051.
What is the wireless range of the device?
The FC-41-0202 can communicate wirelessly at up to 1250 metres in clear line-of-sight conditions. Line of sight refers to the maximum distance over which radio frequency signals can travel in a direct, unobstructed path between transmitter and receiver. Actual range may vary depending on the installation environment.
