Why use Voice
Alarm?
Voice Alarm (VA) systems are the
quickest way to evacuate the public & staff from a building. Following
fire detection, automated messages control the flow of people in stair
wells and corridors allowing an orderly evacuation without panic. These
messages are supplemented by spoken messages from the fire service or
management suite confirming the validity and need to leave the building.
This positive confirmation speeds evacuation and avoids the "false
alarm" mentality reducing the risk of death from fire.
Where should you use Voice Alarm?
Voice Alarm systems are recommended for
all public buildings and multi story buildings over four floors by
BS5588.
In public buildings it's not possible to
fire drill the public, as they visit the premises infrequently, so
systems such as Voice alarms save valuable time in evacuating the
building.
The use of phased messages in multi-story
buildings prevents over-crowding in stairwells and at exits, preventing
secondary injuries. In phased evacuation, the floor in fire receives
the evacuate message, and the floor above & below receive an alert
message, preparing them for evacuation.
In
more complex scenarios the use of multiple alert and evacuate messages
can be beneficial, messages telling the evacuees they are going the
right way, and messages asking people to make way for people leaving
evacuated areas. These additional messages can dramatically speed up the
evacuation especially in malls and large airport environments.
