We want to start by indicating that at Edintel we have a wide variety of fire panels to optimize the customer experience in terms of safety when we talk about fire detection alarms, in this case we will provide a brief information about the new EST4 Panel and its features that position it within the best panels for fire detection on the market.
The EST4 panel is EDWARDS premier emergency communications system. Although it represents a small name change from its predecessor, the EST 3 panel, the EST4’s leap forward in capability is anything but tiny. This exciting flagship system features an entirely new network architecture that makes fire alarm, mass notification and building integration easy to deploy, quick to maintain and secure from today’s cyber threats. Additionally, it is worth noting that this panel represents a fairly comprehensive people safety capability by offering the most robust and carefully designed network platform in the industry.
From its carefully designed interface to its advanced connectivity and extensive system capability, the EST4 demonstrates that form and function are inseparable elements of good system design security.
It gives systems engineers the tools they need to create projects that exceed expectations and have plenty of room to grow, while respecting facility budgets and construction timelines.
EST 4 FEATURES
MODULAR CAPABILITIES
A modular panel provides extraordinary flexibility and customizable configuration, allowing you to include only
the capabilities you need and easily exclude those you don’t, while providing capacity for future expansion.
ADVANCED NETWORK ARCHITECTURE
The EST4 adapts to a multitude of facility and campus designs, reducing the cost of networked systems. In addition, UL-certified proxy firewalls help protect the system from cyber threats when connected to external networks.
EMERGENCY VOICE COMMUNICATIONS
The EST4’s distributed audio and impressive 100-channel capacity per system make it the clear choice for delivering critical messages when and where they are needed.
BACKWARD COMPATIBILITY
Local EST3 cabling, devices and most EST3 modules are fully compatible with the EST4 panel, providing easy migration paths and a cost-effective transition to the new technology.
PREPARED FOR THE FUTURE
Although EST4 currently meets the stringent UL864 standard for fire alarm controls and the UL2572 standard for mass notification, its design is prepared to accommodate future code and standard changes.
LARGE FULL COLOR LCD TOUCH SCREEN WITH TACTILE BUTTONS
Fast and intuitive access to service and response functions.
FIVE-COLOR LED INDICATORS
System status at a glance, select the color needed during programming, reduces replacement part inventory, maximizes use of available infrastructure.
CONECTIVITY
Built-in email and email to SMS messaging, instant notification of specific types of events sent to the appropriate personnel. It is also important to mention that the EST4 panel is capable of connecting up to 1250 smoke detectors or sensors and the same number of modules.
MAINTENANCE
Reduction of nuisance alarms. Network data, audio data and telephone data share a single twisted pair or single strand of fiber. Up to 75 percent less cabling, substantial savings in materials and labor.
AUDIO
Nothing informs building occupants better than voice audio, and the EST4’s highly intelligible voice audio ensures those words are heard loud and clear. This high-fidelity messaging, through the EST4’s impressive 200-channel capability, provides the flexibility responders need to deliver messages clearly and concisely.
Finally, we can say that the net result of the EST 4 panel is an emergency communications system suitable for both new and retrofit projects; a platform that keeps property safe and people out of harm’s way.
