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