The C-Tec CFP708E-4 CFP Economy 8 Zone Conventional Fire Alarm Panel is a versatile, cost-effective fire detection solution designed for larger installations requiring extended zone capacity. LPCB certified to EN54-2 and EN54-4 standards, this panel delivers comprehensive features at a competitive price point. Housed in an attractive flush or surface-mountable plastic enclosure, it provides eight detector zones and four conventional sounder circuits, making it ideal for schools, hotels, offices, industrial units, and multi-occupancy buildings. The intuitive interface features colour-coded buttons and combined keypad/keyswitch entry for secure and straightforward operation. With four open-collector outputs and class change/alert inputs, it offers flexibility while maintaining simplicity. Note that this economy version has limited engineering functions and is not compatible with expansion boards or repeaters, making it a straightforward, no-frills solution for basic fire alarm requirements where eight-zone coverage is needed.
LPCB Certified to EN54-2 & EN54-4: Third-party certified by the Loss Prevention Certification Board for assured quality and compliance.
Eight Detector Zones: Supports up to 25 detectors per zone (or 32 combined detectors/call points) with maximum 500m cable length per circuit.
Four Conventional Sounder Circuits: Provides up to 800mA total output current (4 x 200mA) for alarm devices.
Intuitive User Interface: Colour-coded buttons and combined keypad/keyswitch entry for straightforward user and engineer access.
Integral Power Supply: EN54-4/A2 compliant switch-mode PSU with support for up to 2 x 12V 3.2Ah VRLA batteries.
Four Open-Collector Outputs: Includes Fire, Fault, Reset, and Remote outputs (30mA max sink current).
Auxiliary Inputs: 'Class change' and 'Alert' inputs for external system control.
Flush or Surface Mountable: Supplied in attractive plastic enclosure with no bezel required for clean finish.
Low Quiescent Current: Energy-efficient standby operation.
UK Manufactured: Built by C-TEC in the UK.
Extended Zone Capacity: Eight zones provide comprehensive coverage for larger premises.
Fully Compatible: Works seamlessly with C-TEC's ActiV range of conventional fire detectors.

1. How many devices can I connect across all eight zones?
Each zone supports up to 25 detectors or 32 combined detectors and call points, allowing for a maximum of 200 detectors or 256 combined devices across all eight zones, providing substantial capacity for larger premises.
2. What size premises is this 8-zone panel suitable for?
Ideal for medium to large buildings such as schools, hotels, industrial units, warehouses, offices, and multi-occupancy residential buildings requiring comprehensive zone coverage and reliable fire detection.
3. Can I add more sounder circuits if four are insufficient?
The panel has four dedicated sounder circuits with 800mA total capacity. For additional sounders, consider using higher-efficiency devices or consult manufacturer guidelines for load sharing across zones if permissible.
4. Is this panel compatible with wireless detectors?
No, this is a conventional wired panel designed for use with C-TEC's ActiV range of wired conventional detectors. For wireless solutions, consider dedicated wireless fire alarm systems.
5. What is the difference between this 8-zone economy panel and the standard version?
The economy panel has limited engineering functions and cannot be expanded with CFP repeaters, relay cards, or EN54-13 interface cards, making it a cost-effective standalone solution without expansion capabilities.
