Apollo XP95 Ceiling Loop Powered VAD – Red Body / White Flash (C-3-8.5)
Part Number: 55000-742APO
The Apollo XP95 Ceiling Loop Powered Visual Alarm Device (VAD) (55000-742APO) delivers clear and effective visual fire alarm notification in environments where audible alarms alone may not provide sufficient warning. As a result, it is particularly well suited to high-noise locations such as workshops, plant rooms, and machine rooms. In addition, it helps improve safety in buildings where deaf or hearing-impaired occupants may be present.
Designed for indoor applications, the 55000-742APO mounts directly to the ceiling and uses a high-intensity white LED flash housed within a red body enclosure. Furthermore, its EN 54-23 Category C certification and C-3-8.5 coverage rating ensure compliant visual alarm coverage across a defined area, helping building operators meet modern life-safety requirements.
To maintain reliable performance, the VAD automatically checks LED operation each time it activates. If the device detects an LED fault, it immediately reports the condition to the fire alarm control panel, enabling maintenance teams to identify and resolve issues quickly. Additionally, the device synchronises its flash pattern using the Apollo protocol, ensuring all connected VADs operate together and provide a consistent visual warning signal throughout the protected area.
