Apollo XPander Sounder and Mounting Base (XPA-CB-14001-APO)

The Apollo XPander Sounder and Mounting Base (XPA-CB-14001-APO) delivers reliable wireless audible alarm notification while providing a mounting platform for compatible Apollo XPander detectors and manual call points. Designed for installations where traditional cabling is difficult, disruptive, or costly, it simplifies system expansion while maintaining dependable fire alarm performance.

Using Apollo’s bi-directional monitored radio platform, the sounder continuously communicates with the fire alarm system, allowing the control panel to supervise device status at all times. As a result, wireless devices appear as standard system addresses, making configuration and management straightforward.

In addition, the unit offers a choice of 32 selectable alarm tones, enabling installers to tailor alarm signals to the application. Depending on the selected tone, the sounder produces an output of between 92 and 106 dB(A) at 1 metre, ensuring clear and effective alarm notification.

Furthermore, Apollo incorporates an audible self-test function, allowing engineers to verify sounder operation quickly during testing and maintenance. The integrated radio base houses both the wireless communication circuitry and battery compartment, creating a compact and efficient installation solution.

To improve long-term reliability, the detector chamber is designed to reduce dirt ingress, helping to minimise nuisance alarms. Additionally, features such as automatic drift compensation, DirtAlert™ monitoring, and transient alarm rejection help maintain reliable detector performance while reducing maintenance requirements.

Moreover, FasTest™ technology and a remote testing facility enable faster commissioning, inspection, and servicing, reducing both testing time and maintenance costs.
