Kidde 1-23911-K070 Firebeta XT Ancillary PCB

The Kidde 1-23911-K070 FireBeta XT Ancillary PCB is an accessory to the EN approved FireBeta XT/XT+ extinguishing control panels. These ancillary boards extend the signals from the extinguishing system to other control or signalling equipment e.g. the building management (BMS) or other fire alarm systems that may be present in the building.

Up to 7 ancillary boards can be connected to the FireBeta XT/XT+ control panel via a fully monitored RS485 communication link. This allows for the same signalling capabilities at multiple locations up to 1200 m away from the main control panel.

Every ancillary board is provided with 10 potential free changeover contact outputs, each allocated to a specific extinguishing system function. On board status LEDs are provided to indicate the status of each output. These LEDs illuminate when the output is active.

Ancillary boards may be mounted inside the extinguishing control panel cabinet or remotely in external enclosures. Every ancillary board is given a unique address to enable accurate location reporting of communication faults between the panel and the board.
