Description

The Hochiki FNV High Rise Evacuation System operates in conjunction with the Fire Alarm Control Panel (FACP) in a building to provide automatic response to life safety emergencies.

The Hochiki FNV includes all necessary features to provide an effective voice evacuation system. The Hochiki FNV can be custom configured to satisfy the needs of any high rise application. Fire department authorities can easily take command of evacuation or relocation procedures and emergencies. Building management and fire brigades can monitor and control emergency response even before the professionals arrive

The FNV system includes capacity for 6 channels of simultaneous audio. This provides for evacuation, stay-in-place, or other public address announcements and automatic messages. Fire Fighter Phones or Warden Stations may be included as required. Area-of-Rescue stations can reassure handicapped occupants that help is on the way. Smoke control, stair pressurization, and HVAC shutdown can be completely automatic unless controlled manually by management or fire authorities.
