C-TEC CAST Mains Switching Input Output Module-(CTEC-CA731)
The C-TEC CAST Mains Switching Input Output Module (CA731) is an addressable fire alarm input/output module designed for use with C-TEC CAST-compatible fire alarm systems. It provides a versatile interface between the CAST fire alarm loop and external equipment, combining input monitoring with a powerful mains-switching output. The CA731 is compatible with C-TEC ZFP and XFP CAST fire panels, making it a practical choice for a wide range of addressable fire detection and alarm applications.
Designed as the mains-switching version of C-TEC's CAST I/O module, the CA731 can switch loads up to 5A at 230VAC or 5A at 30VDC. It incorporates switch monitoring, zone monitoring and output functionality, allowing it to interface with devices and systems that require controlled switching. The module also features an onboard bi-directional short-circuit loop isolator and LED indicators for polling, input faults and relay status, helping provide clear system feedback.
For professional fire alarm system integration, the C-TEC CA731 offers a compact and flexible solution where mains switching and monitored inputs are required. The module is EN 54-17 and EN 54-18 compliant, is designed for double-gang back box mounting, and can be programmed and addressed through the fire panel or CAPROG programmer. Its combination of CAST compatibility, mains switching capability and addressable monitoring makes the C-TEC CA731 Mains Switching I/O Module a valuable component for compatible C-TEC fire alarm systems.
