Nittan Products

Nittan Evolution is an analogue addressable fire alarm system. This page has the Evolution 1 single-loop control panel, optical, heat and multi-sensor detectors, an optical detector with a built-in sounder and its beacon base, addressable sounders and sounder beacons, a manual call point with a hinged clear cover, input/output modules with a surface box, and the EV-AD2 programmer kit for setting device addresses.

Choosing Nittan Products

Nittan fire detection equipment includes the Evolution 1 addressable fire alarm control panel, Evolution addressable smoke, heat and multi-sensor detectors, and addressable sounder beacons.

Control panel

The Evolution 1 (F12-83101) is a single-loop analogue addressable fire alarm control panel with a 4.3" colour touch-screen, supporting up to 254 devices on its loop and networking of up to 16 panels. The F12-83101 has battery backup for up to 2 × 7.0 Ah SLA batteries.

Detectors

The EV-P is a low profile photoelectric smoke detector for Nittan FSK protocol panels, compliant with EN54-7, with an Omniview 360° LED. The EV-H-A1R is a Class A1R heat detector certified to EN54-5, with a thermistor giving a static response between 54°C and 65°C. The EV-PH multi-sensor houses optical smoke and 54°C A1R heat sensors together, to EN54-5 and EN54-7, and processes both signals to minimise false alarms.

Sounders, beacons and call points

The EV-PYS optical detector has an integrated sounder of about 88dB(A) and needs one address, and the EV-PYSVAD beacon base it drives adds 12 white LEDs for EN54-23 Category C ceiling coverage on that single loop address. The EV-SDR sounder has 12 DIP-switch tones and is a stand-alone device, while the EV-SDR Base is a low profile ceiling sounder base for Evolution detectors. The EV-AV2 is a combined sounder and beacon, and the EV-HIOP-SB an IP65 high output sounder beacon with 32 selectable tones. The EV-MCP2-IP24 manual call point is IP24 rated for surface mounting and includes a backbox and wall plate, and the CI-NTN hinged clear cover fits EV-MCP2 call points.

Modules and tools

The EV-3IO is a loop powered module with three Class B inputs, one 5A relay at 240V AC, two 1A relays at 30V DC and an integral -ve short circuit isolator. The EV-2I1O has two Class B inputs and a 5A relay at 240Vac, and fits a standard UK 2 gang pattress box. The Nittan plastic surface box, 45 mm deep, takes double-gang EV modules where flush mounting is not possible, and the EV-AD2 kit is the handheld programmer for setting addresses.

Frequently asked questions

What is Nittan?

Nittan is a fire detection manufacturer whose Evolution range is an analogue addressable fire alarm system. It covers control panels, smoke, heat and multi-sensor detectors, sounders, beacons, call points and loop modules. Evolution devices talk to the panel over Nittan's own FSK protocol, so match them to an Evolution panel. The range here includes detectors, sounder beacons and input/output modules.

What are Nittan addressable devices?

Nittan addressable devices are Evolution detectors, sounders, call points and modules that sit on a panel's loop with their own individual address. The address is usually set with a handheld programmer and stored in the device's memory, so the panel can show exactly which device is in alarm or fault. Some loop modules also carry a built-in short circuit isolator.

What is a Nittan fire alarm panel?

A Nittan fire alarm panel is the control unit of a Nittan Evolution system. It powers and monitors the addressable loop, shows alarms and faults by device, and runs cause and effect rules, such as releasing doors or switching sounders. A single-loop panel typically suits smaller buildings, and panels can be networked together on larger sites. The range here includes the Evolution single-loop panel.
