Kidde - Edwards FX-RLY 1 Form C Relay Module

Product Description

The KIDDE - EDWARDS FX-RLY is a 1 Form C relay module designed for use in fire alarm and life safety control systems. It provides a single set of dry contact outputs in a normally open, normally closed, and common configuration, allowing the panel to trigger ancillary devices such as door holders, damper actuators, elevator recall systems, or notification appliances. The module integrates with compatible FX-series fire alarm control panels and is typically installed by licensed fire alarm technicians during system commissioning or expansion work.

The FX-RLY is suited for commercial and light-industrial fire alarm installations where field relay expansion is needed. It is used when the base panel lacks sufficient onboard relay outputs to control all required auxiliary devices. Typical applications include releasing door-hold-open magnets, activating suppression systems, or signaling building automation systems upon alarm conditions.

Installation Notes

Installation must be performed by a licensed fire alarm technician in accordance with NFPA 72 and applicable local codes. De-energize the fire alarm control panel before connecting or removing any module to prevent damage to system components. Verify relay contact ratings against the load requirements of all connected auxiliary devices before commissioning. After installation, perform a full functional test per the system commissioning requirements to confirm proper relay operation.
