Emergency voice communication system

October 2019 Products & Solutions, Fire & Safety

The Technoswitch Emergency Voice Communication Systems (EVCS) concept offers fire telephone and disabled refuge systems, as well as integrating emergency assist alarm systems in a single solution.

Compliance is at the core of the design process – every product fulfils the requirements of all applicable standards, coupled with high quality finishes, ease of installation and commissioning – providing all stakeholders with the optimum solution.

Building owners have a duty of care to ensure the safety of all building occupants, especially those less able, and an emergency assistance alarm system partially fulfils the owner’s duty in this regard.

The Technoswitch ASSIST CALL System provides a fully compliant and scalable solution with unique benefits, including clear indication, acoustic and visual feedback and high quality stainless steel finishes to blend into any location.

Every EVCS controller is networkable, ensuring scalability and removes redundancy on sites, allowing them to evolve from single stand-alone systems to complex site-wide campus scenarios.

Networking allows 64 devices to be connected on a simple network ring of two 2-core 1.5 mm PH120 cable, with a perimeter of two kilometres, and each outstation can be 500 metres from a controller.
