Introduction
The Kidde-Fenwal AEGIS-PHX is their latest fire suppression control unit, nicknamed “The Phoenix”. This control unit coordinates with your building’s systems, receiving signals from your detection devices and initiating life-saving systems, like suppression or notification devices. Thus, the quality and utility of the suppression control unit is paramount for the functioning of your entire system. The Kidde-Fenwal AEGIS-PHX Control Unit is a conventional releasing and suppression panel with comprehensive functionality. It succeeds the AEGIS 2.0, and was built to tackle a wider array of applications and occupancies with updated features. Some improvements on the new model includes a 1,000 event history log with a real-time clock, fully programmable I/O circuits, an enhanced user interface with a 4×40 LCD, advanced diagnostic capabilities, and much more. Even more, the unit includes a PC-based configuration utility for more complex suppression operations on top of 15 predefined configurations for easy setup.
Improvements
Kidde-Fenwal’s new AEGIS-PHX offers many new advanced features over the previous conventional model, the AEGIS 2.0. It offers more configuration flexibility, including the ability to customize system operations using a configuration utility and Event-Output-Control (EOC) code, which is not as extensive in the AEGIS 2.0. Moreover, it now allows up to seven initiating device circuits and five releasing circuits, compared to the 2.0’s three NACs and 2 release circuits. Another primary highlight of the series is its triple redundancy safeguards, which significantly reduces the risk of false activation of your system. The Kidde-Fenwal AEGIS-PHX is ideal for banks, clean rooms, commercial facilities, data centers, CNC machines, heritage preservation, industrial processes, and much more.
The Kidde-Fenwal AEGIS-PHX is FM approved and currently awaiting for approval from other 3rd parting testing facilities. At the same time, this control unit is suitable for a variety of applications. For instance, the AEGIS-PHX can be used to protect clean rooms, banks, commercial facilities, data centers, CNC machines, industrial processes, heritage locations, and other areas with high-value assets.

Construction
The AEGIS-PHX enclosure has NEMA 1 rating with a semi-flush enclosure mounting option. It features a red, 16 gauge steel construction with an optional NFPA 2001 compliant door-mounted key maintenance bypass switch. For an intuitive ‘Plug-and-Play’ retrofit, the AEGIS-PHX offers a hassle-free installation. It’s built to match existing AEGIS enclosures, and perfectly aligns with the terminal positions of previous AEGIS models. As a result, technicians that have experience with previous AEGIS models will have an easy time installing the Phoenix model. To add, it is backwards compatible with all existing legacy releasing and initiating devices. If you need a suppression control unit for clean agents, inert gases, CO2, chemical, deluge/pre-action, and foam, the AEGIS-PHX is a great option.
