Basic operating unit of the FlexES model fire alarm control panel, with housing for 2 modules. The FlexES Control modular control unit can be supplied in three configurations (FX2, FX10, FX18) to accommodate up to 2, 10 or 18 modules. The FlexES Control expansion can be adapted to different system requirements using accessories and components supplied separately.

For medium-sized installations, additional housings and/or power supplies may be required. The FlexES system has a CPU with Master/Slave management, galvanically isolated loop modules and can support up to three redundant power supplies of 150W each (same or different from the main power supply) connected in series. The housing has a dust filter that allows the control unit to be installed in areas where dust and sand are present. The system supports up to 2286 elements on 18 loops.
