Apollo Marine DIN-Rail Sounder Controller (8 Amperes) – 55000-181MAR

Please note: The Apollo 55000-181MAR is currently subject to an extended lead time. Apollo recommends the 55000-182APO DIN-Rail Sounder Controller (5 Amperes) as the closest available alternative.

The Apollo 55000-181MAR Marine DIN-Rail Sounder Controller (8 Amperes) is designed to control a zone of externally powered sounders and report their operational status back to the fire alarm control panel. Compatible with Apollo XP95, Discovery and CoreProtocol® systems, the module provides a reliable interface between the fire alarm loop and external notification devices.

The fire control panel directly sends control commands to the loop-powered device via the communication protocol. As a result, it enables system operators to manage sounder circuits efficiently while maintaining continuous supervision of the external power supply and sounder outputs. Furthermore, the controller supports both continuous and pulsed sounder operation, providing greater flexibility for alarm notification strategies.

For installation, the 55000-181MAR must be mounted on a DIN rail inside a suitable enclosure, such as the Apollo 29600-239 or 29600-240 enclosure, and secured using appropriate end stops.

Key Features

  • Controls a zone of externally powered sounders
