Why Upgrade to EST4?

Upgrading to the EST4 provides a modern, future-proof fire safety solution with customizable, industry-leading technology.

Investment-Forward Platform:

Continue leveraging your EST3 components while migrating to the EST4 platform. This backward compatibility makes the transition more economical and protects your original investment

Cut Costs:

Migrations typically save up to 25% on installation costs due to simplified network configurations—one pair of wires for three distinct signals—leading to reduced labor, smaller conduits, and overall cost savings

Remote Connectivity:

EST4 supports remote connectivity, allowing for quicker service calls, efficient problem-solving, and web browser access from anywhere. This ensures system uptime and maximizes operational efficiency

Compliant with New Standards:

Ensure your system is up-to-date with NFPA pulse requirements and other critical standards.
