2. Description:

What Is the Aritech 2X-ZI-40 LED Indicator Card?

The Aritech 2X-ZI-40 is a 40-zone fire/fault LED indicator card fitted to 2X-A series addressable fire alarm control panels and repeater panels. It provides a separate fire LED and fault LED for each zone, with a generous space beside the LEDs for zone names. Aritech fire products are now also offered by Carrier under the Kidde Commercial brand.

Operating Principle

The card is mounted on the inside of the panel door and displays the panel’s zone status directly on the LEDs. If a fire is detected in a zone, the fire LED for that zone illuminates; if a fault occurs, its fault LED illuminates. This lets operators see at a glance which zone is affected before reading the messages on the display.

Role in Fire Detection Systems

While the graphical display provides detailed event information, the zone LED card shows the real-time status of all zones simultaneously. This makes it easier for fire crews and security personnel to quickly identify the alarm zone when entering a building. It is also a preferred solution for projects whose specifications require separate zone indication.

Why Choose It?

• 40-zone indication: The status of 40 zones can be monitored simultaneously on a single card.
• Separate fire and fault LEDs: One fire LED and one fault LED per zone clearly identify the type of event.
• Generous labelling area: Floor, room or section names can be easily written beside the LEDs.
• Compatible with panels and repeaters: Can be used with both 2X-A panels and repeater panels.
• Rapid response: The alarm zone is identifiable at a glance, helping to speed up evacuation and response.

Installation and Commissioning

The 2X-ZI-40 is mounted on the inside of the door of a large-cabinet panel or repeater. Before installation, disconnect the panel’s mains and battery supplies, and fit the card in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Then assign the LEDs to the relevant zones in the panel software and label each LED with the zone name. After commissioning, test that the fire and fault indicators for every zone operate correctly.
