Apollo Discovery Sounder VAD Base with Isolator (Part No. 45681-700APO)

The Apollo Discovery Sounder VAD Base with Isolator (45681-700APO) combines a loop-powered sounder, an EN54-23 certified Visual Alarm Device (VAD), and an intelligent mounting base into a single addressable unit. Designed to make full use of the advanced Apollo Discovery protocol, the device provides both audible and visual fire alarm notification while offering flexible configuration and simplified commissioning.

For faster installation and maintenance, engineers can use an Apollo Magnetic Wand to locally test and adjust the sounder VAD without needing to access the fire alarm control panel. Additionally, the integrated short-circuit isolator helps maintain loop integrity by automatically isolating faulted sections of the circuit, reducing the impact of wiring faults on the wider fire detection system.

The unit supports individually configurable sound output levels directly from the control panel, enabling system designers to tailor alarm performance to different environments. Furthermore, users can select from 15 pairs of alarm tones, including IMO Code 1A General Emergency Alarm and IMO Code 2 All Clear, making the device particularly suitable for marine, offshore, industrial, and commercial applications.
