p The EVOLVE-ML Retrofit Kit converts an existing VS4 series fire alarm panel enclosure to the EVOLVE-ML multi-line platform without ripping out the backbox. Drop in the new door assembly, display module, and mounting hardware, reconnect, and the VS4 chassis runs the current EVOLVE-ML intelligent fire alarm system. /p h2 Built for the commercial fire alarm installer /h2 p Retrofit jobs on Kidde VS4 enclosures no longer require a full enclosure swap. This kit includes everything needed to bring the cabinet up to EVOLVE-ML spec: red trim door with dual windows, multi-line LCD display panel, main circuit board, inner mounting frame, and all associated hardware.
