ES-50X Series
Intelligent Addressable
Fire Alarm Control Panels
Addressable Fire Alarm Control Panels

General
The ES-50X, ES-50XC, ES-50XI, and ES-50XP are the latest intelli-
gent addressable fire alarm control panel (FACPs) from Fire•Lite
Alarms and are direct replacement for the MS-9050UD. The ES-50X
Series support up to 50 addressable devices in any combination of
detectors or modules. With an extensive list of powerful features, the
ES-50X Series programs just like Fire•Lite’s other addressable panels,
yet fits into applications previously served only by conventional panels.
The ES-50X and ES-50XC feature a pre-installed IPOTS-COM, a dual
technology (POTS and IP) communicator. The POTS transmits system
status (alarms, troubles, AC loss, etc.) to a Central Station via the pub-
lic switched telephone network. The IP communicator’s internet moni-
toring capability sends alarm signals over the Internet saving the
monthly cost of two dedicated business telephone lines. Although not
required, the secondary telephone line may be retained providing
backup communication over the public switched telephone line.
Optional cellular reporting is available using an HW-TG7F Series
Communicators or the CLSS Pathway.
The ES-50XP features an integrated CLSS Pathway Pro Communica-
tor, a dual-SIM (AT&T/ Verizon) 5G LTE-M Communicator with optional
IP connection. The CLSS Pathway Pro transmits system status
(alarms, troubles, AC loss, etc.) to the Central Station using LTE CAT-
M1 networks, serving as a bridge between the fire system and the

Temperature and Humidity Ranges

This system meets NFPA requirements for operation at 0 – 49°C/32 –
120°F and at a relative humidity 93% ± 2% RH (noncondensing) at
32°C ± 2°C (90°F ± 3°F). However, the useful life of the system's
standby batteries and the electronic components may be adversely
affected by extreme temperature ranges and humidity. Therefore, it is
recommended that this system and its peripherals be installed in an
environment with a normal room temperature of 15 – 27°C/60 – 80°F.
