SKU:
KD-VM-SLC-HC

The VM-SLC-HC is the high-capacity version of Kidde's VM Series loop expansion card, purpose-built for circuits carrying more than 90 isolator modules. On jobs with heavy isolator counts Ć¢ā‚¬ā€ long runs through multiple electrical rooms, or designs that isolate every few devices for code compliance Ć¢ā‚¬ā€ the standard VM-SLC can run short on drive capacity. The HC card is the fix.

Built for the commercial fire installer

Swap-in compatible with the standard VM-SLC card slot on the VM-CPU main board, so there's no redesign of the panel layout to accommodate it Ć¢ā‚¬ā€ just the right card for a loop with unusually heavy isolator loading. Spec it up front on jobs where the device schedule shows a high isolator count, or as a field replacement when an installed VM-SLC can't hold the loop under alarm load.

Key features

  • Rated for circuits with more than 90 isolators: where the standard VM-SLC capacity falls short
  • Drop-in card slot compatibility with the VM Series VM-CPU main board
  • Adds a full addressable loop to the panel, same as the standard VM-SLC

System compatibility

Installs on a Kidde VM Series control panel's VM-CPU main board in place of a standard VM-SLC, for loops requiring high isolator capacity.

When do I need the VM-SLC-HC instead of the standard VM-SLC?
When the loop's device schedule includes more than 90 isolator modules. The standard VM-SLC card is not rated for isolator counts above that threshold.
