Product Details
The ANS series of products from Edwards are high-performance audio notification systems that provide voice evacuation capability to meet the emergency voice alarm requirements of NFPA 72 for UL listed fire alarm applications. The ANS panels are available in 25, 50, or 70 watt models and include an amplifier, tone generator, digital message repeater (DMR), and supervisory interface. These self-contained systems offer robust field-configurable features and are supported by a wide range of accessory equipment that ensures application flexibility and reliable performance for both new and retrofit installations. Expander panels and modules extend the range of the ANS system to meet the demands of audio applications, while accessories like zone switchers and remote microphones add sophistication for a relatively low cost. ANS systems are optimized for use with Edwards QuickStart and Fireshield fire alarm control panels when emergency voice alarm service is required. All ANS systems are compatible with Edwards Signaling's Genesis line of field-configurable speakers and speaker-strobes, which offer a clean and attractive appearance for any voice audio application. Standard features include compliance with NFPA 72 emergency voice alarm requirements, clean dead-front construction, an integrated digital message repeater with a four-minute message capacity, options for field-selectable 25 or 70 VRMS speakers, a 120 VAC power supply and battery charger, paging microphone override functionality, high reliability with low maintenance needs, full supervision, UL listing, easy installation and operation, built-in alarm and alert signals, and a 24-hour backup with two 12 V, 7 AH batteries.
