Product Details
The ANS series of products from Edwards are high-performance audio notification systems designed to provide voice evacuation capability that meets the emergency voice alarm requirements of NFPA 72 for UL listed fire alarm applications. These ANS panels come 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 are supported by a range of accessory equipment that provides application flexibility and reliable performance for new and retrofit installations. Expander panels and modules extend the range of the ANS system to meet demanding audio applications, while accessory equipment such as zone switchers and remote microphones enhance system capabilities. ANS systems are compatible with Edwards QuickStart and Fireshield fire alarm control panels for emergency voice alarm service. Standard features include compliance with NFPA 72 emergency voice alarm requirements, 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, and battery charger. The system also features a paging microphone that overrides messages and tones, high reliability with low maintenance needs, is fully supervised and UL listed, allows for easy installation, operation, and configuration, includes built-in alarm and alert signals, and provides 24-hour backup with two 12 V, 7 AH batteries.
