Unfamiliar building, emergency situation, would you know what to do?

Today, in a world where there are a growing array of threats such as fire, acts of terrorism and extreme weather, coupled with an increase in buildings with complicated layouts, the task of guiding people to safety in event of an emergency is more challenging than ever. With pre-recorded and live messaging given through public address and voice alarm systems the task is much easier and can potentially reduce evacuation time by 50%.

Design a voice alarm system to suit your building's requirements

The firefighter's microphone is just part of the DAU500 voice alarm system. The system comes with a variety of optional components and accessories. This means that you can easily tailor the system to meet the requirements of your current and future projects, whether the system you need is for a single building, across a site, either centralised or distributed.
