TRANSCRIPT
The Emergency Voice Communications System (EVCS) Network 8 is for use as a Fire Telephone system, Disabled Refuge Call system or as a combined system when both Fire Telephones and Disabled Refuge Points are required.
Features• Fully monitored stand alone system
• Complies with BS5839 Part 9
• Fully addressable
• Duplex two way communication
• Systemflexibility
• Multiple line conversations
• Up to 8 master handsets
• Up to 256 outstations
• In addition to Type A and Type B Outstation can also
monitor Emergency Assist Alarms (using a 2 core radial)

The EVCS consists of three main components; the master handset (EVCS-MS), the exchanges units (EVCS-XC), and outstations (type A or type B as appropriate).
Control of EVCS is simplicity itself, the master handset has a clear, four line backlit display which shows the calling outstation name in plain text. Calls can be made to outstations by either dialling the number of the unit, or choosing the name from a text dialling directory, with conference calling possible.
Each Exchange unit connects to a data highway and is locally powered, with internal battery backup from a monitored, maintained sealed lead acid battery. Up to eight lines can be connected to each distributed exchange, and each line can have up to four phones (BS5839 Part 9 recommends one phone per line,howeverthisfacilityisrequiredinsomeretrofits).
Two types of user outstation are available as described in BS5839Part9,TypeAuseshandsets,eitherflushorsurfacemounting. Type B outstations are hands free units with echo cancellation and noise reduction. All EVCS handsets have a ‘T’ coil for hearing aid users.
InstallationMaster Handsets and exchange units are connected on a single datahighwayconsistingof2x4corefireratedcables.Upto8Master Handsets and 32 exchanges may be connected to this highway. Master Handsets may be desk or wall mounted and has a 19” rack mounting option. Exchange units are supplied in a mild steel enclosure suitable for wall mounting.
Each Exchange unit has 8 outstation lines for connection of Type A (telephone), Type B (hands free) stations or Emergancy Assist Alarm systems. These are connected to the Exchange unitwitha2corefireratedcablewithfieldwiringwhenanoutstation is connected.

Please note: When choosing the outstation type for use with an EVCS we recommend reading Section 11 of BS5839-9:2003 which deals with outstation types. Type B outstations can only be used where the background noise is below 40dBA (therefore there can be no sounder or voice alarm coverage in the area).
