Apollo XP95 Open-Area VAD Category W – White Body (Red Flash) (W-2.4-6)

Part Number: 55000-737APO

The Apollo XP95 Open-Area VAD Category W (55000-737APO) is a high-performance Visual Alarm Device (VAD) designed to provide clear visual fire alarm notification in environments where audible alarms alone may not provide sufficient warning. The device is particularly effective in areas with high background noise, such as workshops and plant rooms, as well as locations where deaf or hearing-impaired occupants may be present.

Designed for integration with Apollo XP95 addressable fire alarm systems, the 55000-737APO produces a high-intensity red LED flash and complies with EN 54-23 Category W requirements for open-area visual alarm devices. The unit provides a certified coverage area of W-2.4-6, delivering effective visual warning over a wide coverage zone.

The VAD continuously supports system reliability through an automatic LED integrity check that activates whenever the device operates. If the LED check fails, the device immediately reports a fault to the fire alarm control panel, helping maintenance personnel identify issues quickly. In addition, the VAD synchronises its flash pattern through the Apollo protocol, ensuring consistent operation across all visual alarm devices on the loop.
