6-Zone Conventional Fire Alarm Control Panel, Expandable to 192 Inputs, PFC-4064

The PFC-4064 is a microprocessor-based conventional fire alarm control panel designed to monitor and manage all aspects of a fire alarm system while communicating status to a monitoring station. This compact, expandable panel is listed and approved to UL-864, NFPA-70, and NFPA-72 standards, making it suitable for commercial buildings, facilities, and institutions requiring reliable fire detection and notification.

The panel includes 6 programmable initiating device circuits (expandable to 192 inputs using IDC-6 expansion modules), 4 notification appliance circuits (NAC) rated at 3.0A each with strobe synchronization compatible with Gentex, AMSECO, System Sensor, and Cooper/Wheelock devices, and a 5.0A power supply. Built-in battery support accommodates up to two 12V, 18Ah batteries for backup power, with capacity to charge up to 55Ah. An 80-character LCD display with system status LEDs provides clear visibility of system conditions, supported by a history buffer for event tracking.

The control panel features an 18-gauge steel cabinet with key lock and Lexan window, measuring 14.3" W × 18.5" H × 4.8" D. Connectivity includes a Potter P-Link RS-485 bus supporting up to 31 system accessories, built-in Ethernet with listed IP communicator capability, and email functionality for system status and reports. A 1.0A auxiliary power output enables control of ancillary fire alarm functions. The removable circuit board assembly allows the cabinet to be installed with minimal effort.
