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 to provide application flexibility and reliable performance for both new and retrofit installations. Expander panels and modules extend the range of the ANS system, catering to demanding audio applications, while accessory equipment such as zone switchers and remote microphones enhance functionality. ANS systems are compatible with Edwards Quickstart and Fireshield fire alarm control panels when emergency voice alarm service is required and are also compatible with Edwards signaling's Genesis line of field-configurable speakers and speaker-strobes. Standard features include clean dead-front construction, integrated digital message repeater with a four-minute message capacity, field selectable for either 25 or 70 VRMS speakers, a 120 VAC power supply with battery charger, paging microphone override, high reliability with low maintenance, full supervision, easy installation and configuration, built-in alarm and alert signals, and a 24-hour backup provided by two 12 V, 7 AH batteries.
