The AFC-50 is an analog/addressable fire alarm system designed for releasing applications, with a total capacity of 50 addresses. This capacity can be expanded using multi-point SLC modules. The control panel operates with the exclusive Potter protocol, which supports a full range of sensors and modules. Each SLC can include a combination of smoke sensors, heat detectors, or modules, supporting up to 50 ohms of impedance and compatible with any wiring that meets National Electrical Code (NEC) standards.
The AFC-50 features a 5 Amp power supply, two Notification Appliance Circuits (NACs), and two Input/Output (I/O) circuits. Each NAC is rated at 3 Amps, while each I/O is rated at 1 Amp. All outputs are regulated and power-limited, with unique programmability for functions such as steady signal, strobe synchronization, constant power, door holder power, or releasing. Strobe synchronization supports Gentex, AMSECO, System Sensor, and Cooper/Wheelock devices, and with the exclusive Quadrasync feature, each output can support a different brand while ensuring all strobes flash in unison. The I/Os are designed for inputs such as manual release stations and abort switches, offering nearly instantaneous response without requiring polling.
