Product Information

Tamper Proof MCP

Stockcode:

The TAMPERPROOF MCP is the only product available on the market which can deliver the full functionality required of an MCP whilst complying with the imminent EN12101-9 product standard.
Nuisance operation, especially in student accommodation is becoming a real concern for facility managers, building owners, occupiers and fire brigades as inappropriate operation of the manual control points can not only cause activation of a system, if a fire does occur once an MCP has been operated, initiation of vents on fire floors can be locked out and fail to operate as a direct result.
The orange (RAL 2011) MCP displays system and vent status both audibly and visibly through three LEDs, “power, fault and activated” (all requirements of the EN standard).

SE Controls

Very professional and timely sales and technical support. Good delivery timeline. NI 24 40 chain motors - highly reccomended, for being fully customizable on site and very good ratio stroke - push force To be improved: for NI 24 40 series - ease the acces to the conectivity socket (very difficult to get at, when programming adjustments are needed after the motor has been installed).
