The Hardwire 16-F small enclosure on the website shows 8 zones in the picture. I just want to make sure that it is indeed 16.
The Hardwire 16F QS7133-840 and QS7134-840 support up to 16 zones. The image in the product page is likely from an older device. You can refer to the product page and Installation Manual for more information.
Also, what’s the difference between the PowerG versus the Hardwire 16. Is one better than the other for certain applications?
IQ Hardwire PowerG supports 8 zones and supports 18 2-wire smoke detectors.
The Hardwire 16F has more zones (16) but less 2-wire smokes can be supported (10 total)
- Support for System Sensor® 2W-B, 2WT-B, 2WTA-B* *Detector models should not be mixed.
