Need to protect against fire? Then use this innovative multi-functional control panel designed to give protection whilst maintaining the function of everyday use. The FCP03 gives an advanced warning in the event of a fire before closing the shutter or curtain, protecting both personnel and property from the effects of fire and smoke. Programming is easy using external buttons and 5 user menus are available, each suitable for the required closing method of the shutter. These features include solenoid drop, power closing, and 2 stage closing. For custom use, an advanced menu is also selectable. Why not use an additional photocell with it to stop and reopen a closing shutter or to use the photocell as an alarm warning to show an obstruction? A Full audio-visual warning is provided by its large display and sounder, and internal batteries provide power to keep the unit active if mains power fails. Its aesthetic design allows it to blend into most environments and by using its matching repeater unit, all-round warning is possible. www.ellard.co.uk The New ProMax3 Control Panel for Industrial Motors Ellard are set to launch the first in a series of new industrial door control panels when ProMax3 is launched in April this year.
