C-TEC Conventional Manual Call Point for Apollo Compatible Systems

Conventional fire alarm systems remain widely installed in smaller commercial properties, converted buildings, and older installations across the UK where a zone-based approach is proportionate and cost effective. In these systems, manual call points are a required component, allowing occupants to trigger the alarm when they identify a fire.

The C-TEC BF370R is designed for conventional Apollo-compatible systems, where it connects directly onto the zone circuit of the conventional fire alarm panel and triggers an alarm condition for that zone when activated by an occupant.

The familiar break glass activation method means all occupants, regardless of prior fire safety training, instinctively understand how to use the call point in an emergency. Once activated, the device requires a key or tool to reset, preventing accidental re-activation and allowing the panel operator to acknowledge and reset the alarm in the correct sequence.

For fire alarm engineers and electrical contractors installing conventional fire alarm systems in smaller offices, retail units, and managed commercial properties across London and the wider UK, the C-TEC conventional call point is a reliable, widely used, and straightforward device to specify and install.
