Information About IPDACT-2UD
The IPDACT-2UD is part of Fire-Lite’s Internet Communicator Series, developed to enhance alarm transmission reliability through IP-based communication. It connects directly to the panel’s digital alarm communicator transmitter (DACT) outputs and converts phone line signals into IP packets for transmission via Ethernet. Designed for use with Fire-Lite’s 24 VDC power supplies, the unit consumes 98 mA in standby and 155 mA in alarm conditions. The communicator supports UL 864-listed monitoring over primary or backup IP channels and is compatible with the VisorALARM receiver for seamless integration. Ideal for commercial and institutional applications, the IPDACT-2UD reduces communication costs while ensuring fast, supervised alarm transmission.
Key Features:
- IP-Based Alarm Transmission: Sends fire alarm signals over Ethernet instead of phone lines.
- 24 VDC Operation: Requires nonresettable, filtered, and regulated 24 VDC power source.
- Low Power Consumption: Draws 98 mA in standby and 155 mA in alarm.
- Dual Transmission Paths: Supports primary and backup IP channels for communication redundancy.
- UL/NFPA Compliant: Meets UL 864 and NFPA 72 standards for fire alarm communication.
- Supervised Connection: Constantly monitors IP network integrity and signal paths.
- Plug-and-Play Installation: Easily connects to Fire-Lite control panel DACT outputs.
- Receiver Compatibility: Works with VisorALARM IP receiver and compatible monitoring systems.
The IPDACT-2UD delivers the reliability and precision required for secure IP-based communication in modern Fire-Lite fire alarm systems.
