Waltham, Mass., June 17, 2008 – Keltron Corporation, leading provider of life safety event management solutions, introduces the Keltron Solid State Master Box (SSMB). Still in use throughout New England and the Mid-Atlantic regions, the municipal loop fire alarm system has long provided a means for transmitting fire alarms to the fire department from a protected building or facility.
The Keltron SSMB is an NFPA 72-compliant, FM-approved electronic coded transmitter for use on telegraphic fire alarm reporting systems. It is designed and manufactured using components that are known for their reliability and for being able to withstand temperature extremes and severe climate conditions such as lightning strikes.
The major benefit of the Keltron master box is that by monitoring multiple outputs from an existing fire panel and allowing the transmission of multiple signals, it enables the fire department to receive alarms by zone and to differentiate among alarms, troubles, or supervisory signals. “This capability increases the first responders’ knowledge of the exact nature or specific location of the incident, improving the accuracy of the department’s response”, said Steve Sargent, director of sales for Keltron.
