Conventional Fire Systems

Tried, trusted, respected.

Far from conventional

C-TEC’s market-leading portfolio of conventional fire alarm equipment includes our award-winning CFP range of 2-8 zone fire panels, our ActiV range of ‘best in class’ fire detectors, sounders and visual alarm devices and a host of useful fire alarm ancillaries and power supplies. Everything we make is designed and manufactured at our state of the art headquarters in the North West of England meaning you can rest assured all of our products will integrate seamlessly. Thought C-TEC only made fire panels? Think again!

Pioneering Engineering

C-TEC’s super-enhanced CFP 2-8 zone fire alarm panel is the UK’s best selling conventional fire panel. Certified to EN54-2/4 by the LPCB and supplied in an attractive flush or surface mountable plastic enclosure, it includes four conventional sounder circuits, a fire relay, a fault relay, ‘class change’ and alert inputs and two open collector outputs (remote and reset). Designed with the installer in mind, it has a wide range of engineering functions including zone test, coincidence, zone delay and non-latching zones. Standard and non-expandable Economy versions are available.

Get ActiV

C-TEC’s ‘best in class’ ActiV fire detectors include a host of features installers love – plenty of working space, two ultra-bright LED indicator strips offering all-round visibility, an ingenious detector/base locking mechanism and compatibility with virtually all known conventional fire alarm panels. Certified to the relevant parts of EN54-5/7, optical, fixed heat, rate-of-rise and multi-sensor variants are available, all manufactured in the UK. It’s no wonder so many installers are switching to ActiV.

EN54-13 System Stability

Ever get asked for a fire alarm system that offers EN54-13 ‘system compliance’? If so, our new BSI certified interface boards are sure to be of interest. Compatible with our CFP 2-8 zone standard fire panel and a specified range of field devices, our new BF354 interface board and fault monitoring modules are able to detect and indicate partial or ‘creeping’ open or short circuit faults BEFORE devices become inoperable. Required by law in many Benelux countries, EN54-13 is also hitting the headlines here in the UK.

Ideal for controlling beam detectors, auto-dial communicators, aspirating smoke detectors, electromagnetic door holders, ventilation systems and more, the range comprises 1.5A, 3A and 5A 24V units and a 2A 12V unit. A comprehensive range of non-EN54 PSUs is also available.
