Section 2-1- Description
General
The SP40/2 panel is a stand alone, single channel, 40 watt, supervised voice evacuation/emergency
message system with additional features of a Telephone Page Input, Night Ring Input and
Background Music Input. Figure 2-1 illustrates the basic capabilities.
The control panel that activates the SP40/2 panel must provide a Notification Appliance Circuit with a
voltage ranging from 9 to 31VDC.
The SP40/2 panel does
not
sense an emergency condition or hazards such as fire; it is only a part of
a system that does sense such conditions. The SP40/2 panel, when activated, provides a pre-
recorded voice message(s) to speaker notification appliances. When used as part of a protective
signaling system, the SP40/2 panel must be properly connected to a compatible control panel that
has been approved by a nationally recognized testing laboratory ("LISTED") and to LISTED
compatible notification appliances for proper operation.
THE SP40/2 PANEL MUST BE PROPERLY INSTALLED, PROGRAMMED, AND CONNECTED TO
A COMPATIBLE FIRE ALARM CONTROL PANEL TO FUNCTION IN A VOICE EVACUATION
SYSTEM.
