Product Overview
The all new Compas product range of fire alarm control equipment combines the very latest hardware and software to
produce a control and indication system, which is powerful and sophisticated, yet simple to use and understand. The flexibility
of the Compas platform is such that it can be re-configured to realize many other control and indication applications, with
direct integration into intelligent buildings.

Moving away from the simple, price driven, competitive model used by most manufacturers today, the Compas concept is
designed to add value to System Designers, Integrators, Service Providers, and end users. Developed from the “ground up”
and using some of the most advanced technology available, Compas is designed as one of the most powerful, intelligent, and
technically robust fire alarm products available.

Not only do the products and services offered under the Compas brand provide solutions to the most technically challenging
applications in life safety, Compas will deliver added value, market advantage, and a competitive edge to your business.
