Why use safety modules?

Security modules are a key element in professional alarm systems. They provide power protection by cutting off the battery from excessive discharge or protecting the power supply from overload. This increases the reliability and durability of the entire installation.

Types of security modules available in our offer

• Battery security (Module ZB-1): It monitors the 12 V battery voltage and disconnects it when it drops to a dangerous level. {index=0}
• Overload module (ZB–2): It protects the output of the power supply from excessive current — it sends a signal to the emergency control unit at overload. {index=1}

What should I pay attention to when selecting a security module?

• Maximum operating current: Check how high the current load can handle the module (e.g. ZB-1 is up to 7 A). :contentReference[oaicite:2]{index=2}
• Alarm Output: Whether the module has a relay or a contact that informs the control panel of the overload or cut off of the battery. {index=3}
• Compliance with the control panel: Make sure the module is supported by your emergency control unit. (e.g. ZB-1, ZB-2 from Satellite) :contentReference[oaicite:4]{index=4}
• Installation and power supply: Modules require a power supply of 12 V DC — plan to connect them in the control panel housing or power supply.
• Operating temperature and environmental conditions: Make sure that the module can operate under the conditions of the alarm system.

Example of security modules

• **:contentReference[oaicite:5]{index=5}** – address module – can serve as a protective element in conventional / addressable systems. **:contentReference[oaicite:6]{index=6}** – modem / power line protection module, GSM + I/O functions **:contentReference[oaicite:7]{index=7}** – relay module, can be used for emergency and safety control. **:contentReference[oaicite:8]{index=8}** – a module that expands system functions, including securing some states. **:contentReference[oaicite:9]{index=9}** – is used to monitor inputs and can act as a redundant security channel. **:contentReference[oaicite:10]{index=10}** – a module for line surveillance and emergency notification.

FAQ – most common questions

Does the ZB-1 module disconnect the battery completely?

Yes, when the voltage drops below a certain threshold, ZB-1 cuts off the battery, protecting it from further discharge. {index=11}

Does the ZB-2 module report an overload to the alarm station?

Yes — it has a relay NC contact that can notify the control panel of the overload. :contentReference[oaicite:12]{index=12}

Where to install security modules?

They are most often installed in a box with a power supply or central housing, near power lines and a battery.
