‘CAST’ is the world’s most-advanced ‘distributed intelligence’ fire alarm system protocol. Conceived, designed and realised by C-TEC as part of a five-year, multi-million pound project, it involved the creation of a powerful proprietary communication protocol (C-TEC Addressable System Technology, CAST) and multiple control panels & field devices. Now available to purchase, its key features include:

  • 255 devices per loop.
  • Autonomous decision-making for faster response times.
  • Multiple type codes.
  • 40V loop drive voltage.
  • Two ‘soft’ addressing options – automatic via the panel or manual via a powerful handheld programmer.
  • Powerful multi-level addressing facilitates easy device addition and swapped device identification.
  • Multiple functionality at a single address (integrated devices) – coming soon.
  • Volumes, tones & detector modes can be changed at compatible panels.
  • High-speed data transmission and robust data transfer.
  • Intrinsically EN54-13 compliant.
  • Provides geographical location of short and open circuit faults (a short circuit isolator is included as standard in every CAST field device).
  • Replace device function.
  • Future seamless integration with other CAST life safety systems reducing energy, servicing, installation and repair costs.
  • Designed and manufactured in the UK.
