Potter Electric PFC-4064 6 Zone Expandable Facp

Product Description

The POTTER ELECTRIC SIGNAL CO. US PFC-4064 is a 6 zone expandable fire alarm control panel (FACP) designed for conventional fire detection and alarm systems. This control panel serves as the central hub for a conventional fire alarm network, receiving signals from initiating devices, processing zone inputs, and triggering audible and visual notification appliances. It is built for installations where zone-based detection is required and future expansion may be needed. Licensed fire alarm technicians and low-voltage electrical contractors are the primary installers of this type of equipment.

The PFC-4064 is suited for conventional fire alarm applications in residential and light commercial buildings. Its 6 zone architecture allows each zone to monitor a distinct area or floor, providing straightforward fault and alarm isolation. The expandable design makes it a practical choice for facilities that may require additional zones over time without replacing the core panel. It falls within the conventional fire panel product category, which is commonly found in smaller buildings, multi-tenant properties, and retrofit projects.
