Potter Electric Signal PAD300-IM

Potter Electric Signal PAD300-IM Isolator Module

The Potter PAD300-IM is an isolator module designed to enhance the reliability of addressable fire alarm systems by segmenting the Signaling Line Circuit (SLC). In the event of a short circuit, it disconnects the affected segment, ensuring the rest of the system remains operational.  

Key Features:

• Short Circuit Isolation: Automatically detects and isolates short circuits on the SLC loop, minimizing system disruption.

• LED Status Indicator: Features a red LED that illuminates continuously when a short is detected, providing clear visual status.

• Automatic Reset: Once the short is resolved, the module restores normal operation without manual intervention.

• No Address Required: Operates without consuming an SLC address, simplifying system configuration.

• Versatile Mounting: Compatible with standard 4” square or double gang electrical boxes, facilitating flexible installation.

• Wide Compatibility: Suitable for SLC Class A, Class X, and Class B wiring configurations.
