Scantronic EXP-W10 | Wired Zone Expander Module | 10 Zones, Grade 2
£57.01 (inc VAT: £68.41)
Summary
The Eaton Scantronic EXP-W10 Wired Expander provides essential zone expansion capabilities for i-on control panels, delivering ten additional wired zones with four programmable outputs in a compact plastic housing. Designed and approved for security Grade 2 or 3 systems compliant with PD6662:2017 standards, this bus-connected intelligent expander offers professional installers the flexibility to expand system capacity while maintaining full compliance with industry regulations.
Installation efficiency is enhanced through a range of installer-friendly features including a decimal expansion system that simplifies zone identification, semi-automatic addressing that eliminates address duplication issues, and a built-in device locator function that allows technicians to activate an internal buzzer for quick expander identification during service visits. These time-saving features reduce installation complexity and streamline system commissioning.
The EXP-W10 supports multiple zone wiring configurations including FSL with various resistor values and both 2-wire and 4-wire closed circuit options, making it particularly suitable for legacy system takeovers. The integrated loudspeaker connection enables audible system feedback, while the compact 260mm x 160mm x 60mm plastic enclosure allows for discreet installation in space-constrained environments. Environmental Class 2 rating ensures reliable operation across a wide range of indoor conditions.

FAQs
Which alarm control panels is the EXP-W10 compatible with?
The EXP-W10 wired expander is designed for use with all Eaton Scantronic i-on control panels. It connects via the intelligent bus communication system, providing seamless integration with the i-on range including residential and commercial grade panels.
What is the difference between the EXP-W10 and the EXP-PSU models?
The EXP-W10 features a compact plastic housing and does not include an integrated power supply or battery charging capability. The EXP-PSU-SM, EXP-PSU-MM, and EXP-PSU-LM models include metal housings with integrated power supplies ranging from 1A to 3A and battery charging outputs for 7Ah to 17Ah batteries, making them suitable for installations requiring additional power distribution.
What zone wiring configurations does the EXP-W10 support?
The EXP-W10 supports multiple zone wiring configurations including FSL (Finite State Logic) with various resistor values for end-of-line monitoring, plus both 2-wire and 4-wire closed circuit configurations. This flexibility makes it ideal for new installations and legacy system takeovers where existing wiring may need to be preserved.
How does the semi-automatic addressing feature work?
The semi-automatic addressing feature simplifies the process of assigning unique addresses to multiple expanders on the bus. This intelligent addressing system prevents address duplication errors and eliminates issues with lost address links, reducing installation time and minimizing configuration mistakes during system setup.
What is the device locator function used for?
The device locator function allows installers and service technicians to activate an internal buzzer within the EXP-W10 expander from the control panel. This enables quick physical identification of specific expanders in multi-expander installations by simply walking the site and listening for the activated buzzer, saving time during installation, commissioning, and maintenance visits.
Can the EXP-W10 be used in outdoor environments?
No, the EXP-W10 is rated as Environmental Class 2, which means it is designed for indoor use only. It should be installed in protected environments away from direct exposure to weather, excessive moisture, extreme temperatures, or corrosive atmospheres. For outdoor applications, alternative weather-protected solutions should be considered.
