Directional Sounder
with Voice Messaging
Description
Directional Sounder
with Voice Messaing
The ExitPoint™ Directional Sounder has an integral audio
amplifier that produces a pulsating sound consisting of
broadband low, mid, and high range sounds. The broadband noise makes it possible to determine the location of
the sound. There are four (4) pulse patterns that can be
used to create an egress pathway out of a building and to
mark perimeter exits. In addition to the broadband noise,
the sound is capable of playing an alert message in the
form of a recorded voice message or other audible signals.
These messages will instruct the occupants of what action
to take as they approach the directional sounder, and will
allow them to react quickly and confidently when the
sounder is activated. Fifteen different language combinations are available to instruct occupants on the direction
they are approaching (for example, provides the location
of an exit, an up stairway, a down stairway, or an area of
refuge. The directional sounder also incorporates an
optional disable feature for use in conjunction with a control module or heat sensor.
The directional sounder features a number of field selectable power settings including high, medium-high, mediumlow, and low. It is simple to install with its aesthetic low
profile compact design and contains a flush mount in a
4”x 4” x 2 1/4” backbox.
ExitPoint directional sounders, fitted for normal building
evacuation sounders, also direct people to evacuation
routes when either clear or poor visibility conditions exist.
The directional sounder can be used in a wide range of
building applications. Trials consistently have shown an
improvement of up to 75 percent in evacuation times in
smoke and up to 35 percent without smoke. The 2007
Edition of NFGA 72 now provides the installation and
maintenance guidelines on directional sounders.
