The Kidde K-FSRA10C extends fire alarm visibility and control to a secondary location without a trip back to the main FACP. Ten pairs of zone LEDs deliver at-a-glance alarm and trouble indication per zone, while five system status LEDs and full common controls keep building management connected from wherever the annunciator is mounted.
Built for the commercial fire installer
RS-485 communication ties the annunciator back to the FACP over standard twisted-pair wiring, supporting both Class A and Class B topologies for code compliance flexibility. UL, ULC, and FM listed. Mounts on a standard North American 4-inch square electrical box using the included mounting ring, or surface-mounts in an optional RA-series locking steel enclosure. Powered directly from the FACP at 24 VDC - no separate power supply run required.
