Bosch Building Technologies launches AVENAR IO module 4000 series

Bosch Building Technologies has launched the AVENAR IO (input/output) module 4000 series, a new range of interface modules designed to elevate the efficiency and adaptability of fire safety systems. The launch debuts with the FLM-430-I2M1, a smart interface module engineered to enhance connectivity and control across multiple applications. It is fully compatible with the AVENAR fire detector 4000 series.

Interface modules are important parts that connect fire alarm systems to various building applications, like fire dampers, signaling devices, and fire doors. This integration helps ensure a quick and effective response during fire emergencies. Additionally, interface modules offer diagnostic features, enabling safety managers to monitor and evaluate how well the system is working throughout the entire building.

Multi-application, smart, compact

The AVENAR IO module 4000 series introduces a new standard for interface modules with three key features:

  • Multi-application versatility: Unlike traditional single-use modules, AVENAR IO modules can be integrated into multiple fire safety functions, from monitoring sprinklers and dampers to controlling fire doors and signaling devices.
  • Smart customization: Configurable software allows for tailored solutions, ensuring compatibility with specific application requirements. The modules include a fail-safe option, enabling safety measures in case of power or communication failures.
  • Compact design: The modules’ space-saving housing and easy installation on DIN rails make them ideal for use in confined spaces while reducing installation time and costs.

Introducing the FLM-430-I2M1: The first in the series

As the first module in the AVENAR IO 4000 series, the FLM-430-I2M1 exemplifies Bosch Building Technologies commitment to intelligent fire safety solutions. Designed for critical fire response functions, this module offers:

  • Advanced damper control: The FLM-430-I2M1 allows precise damper settings, including partial or full open/close configurations. Fault detection is automated, with visual LED indications simplifying maintenance.
  • Fail-safe functionality: In the event of a fieldbus failure or power loss, the module ensures that connected systems maintain safety standards. Users can configure responses to meet their specific needs, enhancing system reliability.
  • Up to 1,000-meter cable length: With extended cabling capabilities, the module is suitable for large premises, making it ideal for projects requiring significant distances between connected systems.
  • Energy efficiency: With a low energy consumption, the module supports system savings by enabling more devices to be included in a single system loop, reducing overall costs.

Wide range of applications

The FLM-430-I2M1 is designed to meet the challenges of complex environments, including:

  • Industrial sites: With its extended cable range and reliable EMC (electromagnetic compatibility) monitoring, the module is perfect for large-scale industrial facilities where robust connectivity is essential.
  • Healthcare facilities: The module’s ability to withstand electromagnetic disturbances ensures reliability in environments like radiology rooms, where high EMC interference is common.
  • Hotels and shopping malls: For expansive premises, the FLM-430-I2M1 offers centralized monitoring and streamlined installation, reducing project complexity and cost.

With the AVENAR IO module 4000 series, Bosch Building Technologies continues to deliver innovative solutions that prioritize safety, reliability, and adaptability. The FLM-430-I2M1 sets a new benchmark in fire safety, offering a smarter, more efficient way to protect lives and assets across diverse industries.
