1. GENERAL OBJECTIVE
The objective is to have an effective public address and evacuation system for the
entire premises.
The system will combine all the essential EVAC functionality- such as system
supervision, spare amplifier switching, loudspeaker line surveillance, digital
message management etc.
The System shall have a built-in Message manager which will relay an emergency
Message to all zones on all Floors, in case of a Fire / Likewise emergency
.
2. SCOPE
The system shall comprise of Preamplifier, Booster amplifiers, ceiling mount/ wall
mount speakers- 6W, Gooseneck Microphone or Call Station with 6 Zone Selection
Switch & other related accessory.
The system shall provide for emergency call (EMG), business call, and Zooning
Facility. It shall be capable of connecting to EVAC compliant loudspeakers and
accessories for an integrated public address and voice alarm solution.
The system shall be fully IEC 60849 compliant. It shall have full system
supervision, loudspeaker line impedance supervision, a supervised emergency
microphone on the front panel and a supervised message manager for 255 prerecorded messages and chimes. It shall be possible to merge messages to allow
even more flexible use of pre-recorded announcements and evacuation messages.
It shall be possible for each message to have any length within the total available
capacity. The memory shall have a capacity of 16 MB. It shall be possible to
upload from a PC via USB into the memory, after which the unit shall operate
without PC connection. The standard WAV-format shall be used for the messages
and sample rates of 8 kHz up t4 kHz with 16-bit word length (linear PCM) shall be
supported.
Volume override relay contacts shall be provided for each zone separately for
overriding local loudspeaker volume controls. All current override schemes shall be
supported (3-wire and 4-wire override schemes i.e. standard 24V and failsafe).
Upon a call or an activated trigger input these contacts shall be activated for the
appropriate zones, together with an additional voltage free contact (Call Active) for
control purposes.

A 24Vdc output shall be available to supply power to external relays, so no external

power supply shall be required for that purpose. A LED VU-meter shall allow for
monitoring of the master output.

The maximum allowed total cable length between the controller and the last call
station in the chain shall be 1000 meters. The maximum allowed total cable length
between the controller and the RC panel shall be 1000 meters.

3. APPLICABLE STANDARDS
EVAC compliance acc. to IEC 60849
EMC emission acc. to EN 55103-1
EMC immunity acc. to EN 55103-2
Safety acc. to EN 60065

4. SYSTEM COMPONENTS
a. CEILING / WALL SPEAKERS- 6W
The 6 Watt high quality type Ceiling speakers shall be mounted on ceiling
with line matching transformer for direct connecting to 100/70 V output line .
It shall have Box for mounting, wherever it is not directly mounted on the
False Ceiling.
b. CALL STATION
The 6-zone call station shall be a stylish high quality call station with a
stable metal base, a flexible microphone stem and a unidirectional
condenser microphone. It shall be intended for making calls to selected
zones. The special design shall allow for neatly flush mounting in desk tops.
Using dip switches on the bottom of the call station, the call station ID shall
be selectable. The call station shall have selectable gain, speech filter and
limiter for improved intelligibility.
On each call station it shall be possible to select 6 zones with the possibility
to connect a call station keypad to increase the number of zones or zone
groups that can be selected.

DESIGN POWER

| DP1057C-336EN-SI-06

It shall have LED indications for zone selection, fault and emergency state.
The call station extension shall provide seven additional zone and zone
group keys
On each call station it shall be possible to select 6 zones with the possibility
to connect up to 8 call station keypads to increase the number of zones or
zone groups that can be selected. Selected zones are indicated with LEDs
on the call station, three additional LEDs give visible feedback on the active
state of the microphone and the system. Green indicates microphone active,
amber indicates that the system has detected a fault (IEC 80649) and red
indicates that the system shall be in the emergency state.
c.

POWER SUPPLY
The power supply voltage range shall be 18 24V with a current
consumption of less than 50 mA. The nominal sensitivity shall be 85 dB SPL
(gain preset 0dB). The nominal output level shall be 700 mV. The maximum
allowable sound pressure level shall be 110 dBSPL. The microphone shall
have a limiter. The distortion shall be less than 0.6% at maximum input. The
equivalent input noise level shall be no more than 30 dB SPLA. The
frequency range shall be 100Hz 16kHz. The speech filter shall be a 315
Hz, high-pass, 6 dB/oct filters. The output impedance shall be 200 Ohms.
The stem length with microphone shall be 390 mm.
Mains voltage shall be both 230Vac and 115Vac, 15%, 50 / 60Hz
(selectable) Power consumption of the Controller shall not exceed 600
Watts, and the router shall not exceed 50Watts. Battery backup provisions
shall be implemented; the battery voltage shall be 24Vdc, +20% / -10%. All
low level connections and volume override shall be on MC1,5/XX-ST-3,5
type connector blocks. All high level connections except mains shall be on
MSTB 2,5 /XX-ST. The input contact shall have supervision based on a
series and parallel resistor.
The router and controller shall be rack mountable with removable rack
mounts. The router shall be not higher than 2U. The controller shall be not
higher than 3U. The rack mounting kit shall be included.
The operating temperature range shall be -10C to +55C. The storage
